Lionel Fessi Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 The transfer fee won't be an issue, and I suspect Cardiff will give him away. If he's got 2 years left on his contract at £25k per week, that's £2m. He will also be entitled to some kind of bonus if he doesn't ask for a transfer. I wouldn't touch him with a barge pole. For the money, I'm sure we could do better, and get someone with a future value. Great player for us, but that was 10 years ago. The lad has made his money, and would be best suited to playing in Miami in the sunshine for the last few years of his career. Totally agree with this! Coming towards the end of his career like you say, would be a good signing for a team that will struggle to hit mid table but we can do better and he is simply not worth the money.

Saxondale Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Looking at their pool of strikers, there's no way he'll be leaving there anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose though, the brief is to get some experience into the group All our strikers are relatively young and inexperienced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wilyfox Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Looking at their pool of strikers, there's no way he'll be leaving there anytime soon. Not necessarily. They might need him out before they can replace. He'll be amongst if not the top earner at Cardiff. Whether he stays or goes could trigger or scupper one or two deals their end.

Exactly that. We have the young, the unproven, the untried, and the developing amongst our strikers. Kenwyne's age isn't a negative; it's probably one of the reasons we're in for him in the first place. His experience this level and above is something we don't have.

Earlsfieldowl Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 I am a little supised this thread has lasted so long - just can't see this one, classic rumour 2+2 etc.. He has experience at this level but just not sure where he would fit, plus his work ethic feels out of kilter with CC and the team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s29wfc Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 He'd fit just straight down the middle, in between two wide attackers, The focal point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tashton Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Ftao Mr bluesky. How can you make a statement stating you are sure he isn't coming. Are you on speaking terms with either him or chansiri. Do u hav friends on Cardiff board. Tell us how you know or don't make the statement. Simple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vulva Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 The second paragraph is nonsense. On a 1 or 2 year deal he'd be a superb addition. On a 1 or 2 year deal, on average money, he'd be a fair addition. The lad will want one last pay day, and I hope we don't fall for it. We may well have a few quid kicking around, but let's not waste it. Although I wanted a striker, I'm coming round to the idea of using the loan market for this. If we can add someone with the impact of a Wickham, to the the present team, we may well be onto something. A lot will happen between now and the end of August with Premier league squads.

I wouldn't be adverse to using the loan system, but it usually means taking someone inexperienced. Only the upper end Premier League clubs will significantly subsidise wages, and then it's almost always youngsters. Another youngster isn't really what we need.

pickledegghiderman Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Maybe the lad Joao is like kenwyn was 10 years ago. Maybe Joao is gunna step up to the plate this season. Think if we've paid something like 2.8 mil for a striker I'm sure we not going to want him only making a handful of appearances this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
