Deeney incoming

[goodlordmurphy]

This is the dilemma Murph we need strengthening but who do we go for if this is a genuine call , some untried kid or someone like deeney, we have to remember that some teams will be reluctant to sell to us because of their position, ie like that lad at Newcastle a bit of a hot head but decent goal scorer but Benitez said he wouldn't sell to teams around them ?

He's hardly an untried kid at 29...but he is banging in goals like nobody's business, he was also put up as an example to show what can be achieved as opposed to just buying players we already know are a complete waste of space...Deeney is going to be a WATFORD cast off...a pile of dross.
If we go for someone like Di Carmine teams around us don't come into the equation...Di Carmine is valued at 1million plus the enticements he would work out far cheaper...and he does know where the goal is, there are others in that league that are about the same price.

I'd go for Marriott of Peterborough, lower league I know but knocking in goals for fun.

I don't really want Deeney either but at the price of around £16 million he is probably one of the cheapest strikers available, when you look at other clubs they are looking at players from abroad and are being quoted more than that for players that are playing in lower standard leagues Everton paid £20 million for Tosun and he looked poor against us, whoever we bring in has to be able to hit the ground running and have Premier league experience and Deeney fits that bill.

He's scored 3 goals all season....you would cough up £5million a goal...glad you are not on the board SnS
