Leeds v Saints - Second Half chat


St Landrew

Recommended Posts

For example?

 

I'm a big fan of Febian Brandy at Man Utd, he's really pacy and is great on the ball. Helped Swansea get promoted from L1 a few seasons ago so knows the league (albeit not as well as Beckford). Craig Mackail-Smith from Peterborough is also a player I admire, he was instrumental in 'Boro being promoted last season from L1, and he's bagged a fair few goals this season for them in the CCC. I also like Jermaine Easter from MK Dons, he's got something about him.

 

And what about Darius Vassell? He's rotting away in the Turkish leagues nowadays, I know he's had problems with injuries over the last few seasons but I think on his day he was one of the best strikers in the Prem. Wages could be a bit of an issue, but it probably wouldn't take megabucks to prise him away from Ankaragucu where he's playing now. I know he only signed for them in July, but surely it's worth a shot anyway? If not, what about Eddie Johnson from Fulham? Hailed as a really bright prospect when he came over from America, he's not really made an impact in the Prem but he was good when he was on loan at Cardiff last season.

 

Want me to name some more? ;)

 

I realise that Beckford is a very, very good player, but I think he'd be vastly over-priced and his attitude is something we could rather do without at the club. We've just settled down as a team, and we don't need anyone coming in that will disrupt it.

I fear we just haven't had enough penetration - at least they don't give up nowadays. there is still a chance.

 

we haven't got the ability to bring on players like Gradel etc - which is our let down at the moment.

 

Once we bolster the squad a bit more, we'll be right up with leeds.
