Probably just speculative odds. Reading are as good as down so he probably wont stay there, (either because he doesn't want to drop back to the champ or because Reading need the money,) we apparently have money to spend, and Southampton isn't too far away so he wouldn't have to relocate. Hey presto - we're favourites to sign him.

I would have loved to have got him from Rotherham when Reading did and at £350k he was a bargain for what he has delivered. I'm sure if we got him instead of giving Connolly another year we'd have won the league. He has been a decent sub for Reading this year but that's about the limit of his talents if you ask me. An impact player for a bottom half team. We should be aiming higher if we have serious European ambitions next year. He is a good finisher and will get goals but does little else. No presence, no pace, very little trickery. He would be best suited staying where he is and trying to bring Reading back up next year.

As a striker in the Prem you need to be able to play up front on your own otherwise you'll always be a bit part player. He proved on Sat that he isn't capable of playing up on his own. Would rather have Billy Sharp back to be honest.

To echo prior comments, would rather have Sharp. Remember watching him at Hereford and wondering what all the fuss was about.

 

Le Fondre has a wonderful habit of being in the right place at the right time though. It's a shame he forgot he was a professional footballer at the worst possible time on saturday. ;)

Just dont see how he would fit into how we play at all.

 

Not fussed

 

Doubt if we'll buy any GB players at all. MP needs a special kind of player for key roles in his system. Fortunately for him we had a fair number of those already.

A decent goal scorer but I'm not sure of he has much else.

 

Would suit a lower prem team - just not us.

 

What we need is a pacy CF that could work alongside JRod when Ricky hangs up his boots.

perhaps we have some of those in the youth squads. Aren't there some promising hotshots just waiting for their chance to shine on the PL stage?

No thanks. He's not as good as he thinks he is

 

in fact if Kebé and Roberts weren't serial sicknotes this season I'm not sure that ALF would be a starter. Kebe is a handy player. Him I wouldn't mind us signing.

He'll stay at Reading IMO. Adkins seems to have faith in him over Pogrebnyak (who no doubt will be off in the summer anyway) and Hunt.

I would, Kebe is a championship player.
