    I think he is decent tbh - would get us goals.

    Wouldn't want him to be our new "star" signing though :97:

    When I used the word strong I didn't necessarily mean purely the player's physical strength. Samaras is strong on the ball in the sense he can hold onto it, run the clock down and defenders can struggle to get it off him in full flight.

    I still think there are plenty of players about with all 3 of those attributes, and Jorgensen who I suggested is one.

    A bit bizzare he's very similar to a scott McDonald and Gary hooper style player that will grab goals and given a run in Europe will produce IMO

    He's also a free agent I think yes we are crying for a big signing but can't keep letting players like this and Russell etc slip away from us !

    Thomas Delaney. 22, Centre mid and captain of Kobenhavn, Danish but with Irish-American descent. Perfect mix:56:

    These 3 attributes are overused in an attempt to big up a player. I really like the look of Simon Makienok, but I'll be realistic: he is supposed to be a target man, and in that role, his heading ability and height will benefit the team.

    Makienok does look decent yes but I don't know if we should spend £4 or £5m on that type of striker. If he was available for around £2m I'd bring him in with another smaller, pacier forward.

    think there is some value to be taken from the free transfer market;

    jimmy briand - winger/striker, formally of rennes and lyon, 29 years old and quite a bit of european experience
    roland lamah – left winger, on loan at swansea last year, 26 years old belgian international, looked dangerous on occasion, a bit inconsistent but still young enough to improve considerably
    jack collison – central mid, released by west ham after some bad injuries hampered his development, 25 years old, kept ledley out of wales team for a while when he was fit and in-form, always looked good when I saw him play
    tomasz kuszcak – goalkeeper, left brighton at the end of the season, 32 years old so in his prime – im thinking more of a replacement for zaluska to fight with Gordon for number 1 spot

    im not saying any of these players should come in as first team starters, but they would add some depth to our squad with them all being at least on par with some of our current squad. given ronny’s past experience with reviving wayward careers, I think some of these could definitely benefit from his management and surpass what they have done to date

    move on some of the players that don’t seem to be able to step up or progress further, bring in the above player and that saves the transfer budget (if any!) for one or two marquee signings (a centre back and a forward maybe)

    Celso Borges would be a great signing, I hope the club have an eye on him as we usually do with players in the Northern European leagues, noway someone like him should be playing for Charlton.

    Pace doesn't get you anywhere against packed defenses of the SPFL. Without a bunker-buster, we'll be struggling. Pressing and pace work well against an open team.

    I don't think a big 6ft 7 lump is always the answer though either, any attempts to bring in a target man for us lately have failed.

    It's clear that we seriously lack proper pace up front.

    Unless he is good on the deck as well, haven't seen that much of him apart from the standard youtube videos.

    Cannot for the life of me understand why we aren't in for Kramric. Banged in two again last night. Would only cost around 3 million.
