* has proven he can score at international level,Stokes hasn't

I'd back him to do better in Europe than Stokes any day

 

that's a fair point, I just don't think he's as much of an improvement as we'd need. Negligible I'd say.

 

* is better than stokes and ahead of him in pecking order internationally and from what i have seen i think * and hooper would work better than stokes and hooper

 

Good player imo, worth a punt

 

I agree

I wouldn't like to see him sign unless Stokes was moving on

 

Naw

 

Stokes has done it in Europe. * hasn't.

Infact Tony Stokes was our best player in Europe last year.

 

that's a stretch

 

Really hope there is nothing in this, not what we need and not better than what we have.

 

Aye.........we know

 

3 in 14 is a pretty poor international return, especially considering all 3 goals were in friendlies and one was against a depleted Northern Ireland side. That's hardly 'proven' at international level.

What is more significant and surprisingly being overlooked by most people is that he has only scored 1 league goal in the last two seasons. Fortune is preferred to him at West Brom; this would be a step backwards.

 

Underwhelming to say the least.

 

Would seriously have Simon Cowell in our lineup before this guy

 

hen you have some serious issues you need to address

 

Great news. Light years ahead of Leon Best who just went for 3m I think?
This would be a good buy.

 

I'd take Fortune back.

 

After you take him back, I'll take him straight back to WBA

 

Wouldn't mind having him on the bench but it depends on wages and fee. This may mean that Murphy will move on.

 

too similar to what weve got . decent player but.
