I told you it would be unpopular |  |

Not as our first choice but as a squad player, someone to come off the bench or when we need to go route one. With the increasing emphasis on set pieces it’s only a matter of time until “proper” centre forwards make a come back in the top division. McBurnie has shown already that a good championship centre forward can be effective in the premier league. |  |

Of course Gav if Flemming went to Everton and we could get Beto on loan it would be better, if we can't get Ueda or Flemming or Beto, who is on our radar do you think?! It is definitely sending me cuckoo I know.....maybe i just had a funny turn |  |

Having said that he is a player I like, and plenty have successfully made a transition from Champ to Prem. Would also be one who, should we go down, would be a very good player to have in the squad. I don't think its a route we'll go down, probably correctly, but not the worst suggestion in the world. They'll also want silly money for him probably as he's so key to their promotion hopes and so late in the window. Ideally we'll get someone who can hit the ground running. Does Delap's move to Forest push Wood out of the picture? 1 year left on his deal and at 34, presumably wouldn't be a silly fee but might be a decent pick up to get someone with that experience. Also good friends with O'Shea, a young Dara lived with Wood's parents when he first moved over to WBA from Ireland. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

I know Wood has done well at Forest, and this is probably unfair as I don't think he was fit, but I can't forget how hopeless he was for us when McCarthy signed him, he was Gerry Creaney levels of shocking and its hard to erase the memory! The other striker i would have liked who ply's his trade in the championship - and it can't realistically happen as he has only just signed for them - is Will Lankshear. I think he is already a good player with a high ceiling, Spurs would have done well to keep him, i'd rather play him then Richarlson if i was them and see how he can develop. |  |

Yeah he knows where the net is, just too much of a project together with Emersonn. We need somebody who has been there and done it to some extent. |  | |  |

Yes but who? I guess I / we are going to have to be patient. And he is a better player then Hirst, Azon is a good forward, potentially very good but a poor striker. Coburn would have scored 20 for us last year btw. I'd be happy to have better than Coburn and i did say if it came down to the end, at the moment our options after Emerson are not good! |  |

He *may* have scored more for us last season (we'll never know of course), but the rest of his game is off where both Hirst and Azon were, so how many goals would we have lost elsewhere on the pitch through losing the other qualities Hirst & Azon brought? |  | |  |

Agree, Wood had his 'Murphy' season and fair play to him, but too old an injury prone now. |  |

I do think Coburn a decent player, i hoped we could get a Flemming or Ueda, i never dreamed we could possibly get a player of the stature of Tammy Abraham, I'm glad the club are thinking bigger and happy to look a fool 'cos if we can make Tammy happen then i am one happy fool Vic! |  |
