    Unless it's for a cut price bargain deal then no.

    As a rule of thumb returning players generally do not turn out well.

    Not sure we should try to get him back. Expectations might be too high and he was never one of my favourites anyway, always thought he was a bit overrated.

    Hammers in goals which is what we need and tbh all he is doing at Norwich is making sure his * is imprinted in the bench

    I'd take him back no second thoughts about it.

    I know it sounds harsh on Commons because he has been great for us this season, but if we were to move Stokes into his position over time and have Grooper upfront that just makes me want to scream like a little girl in excitment.

    Interesting that it would be Commons saying it, those two are really close and they must talk frequently.

    Looks like Commons is doing his bidding.

    I would take him back for £3m, he is a quality striker and you can't have enough quality strikers.

    7 goals in 19 European games is something we could with having back at the club.

    If we went for him ASAP I think we could get him cheap but if we wait and Van Wolfsvinkel left first he will prob not be sold.

    Hooper, Griffiths, Stokes, Pukki would leave me confident with the strikeforce

    In a heart beat! Best striker we have had in yearssss don't care what the price is as long as it's no higher than what we sold him for!

    So many stubern people big deal he chose the wrong path I still beleive he was lead down it tbh false promises etc this would definetley not be a silly move and i feel he would run back up

    I still think we would need another quality striker if we want to challenge in Europe.

    get hooper and van wolfswinkel and actually play them together unlike that moron hughton. was genuinely excited to watch norwich this season to see if those two would click and they played one striker all * season

    I'd have him back. He might look like a failure but that's his problem. If he bangs in the goals again i'd be happy with him here.

    Felt bitter as * that he left, but yes he's way better than we have and as far as I know he's never sang about Rudi Skacel
