Purely as a target man I agree and it is something we are lacking, he would improve us. With ball at feet he isn't great at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it isn’t, it was meant to be tongue in cheek. He certainly wouldn’t be my first choice, but I’m not totally against it, if it was a loan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be happy if we get any targetman in at this stage of the window. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

January is hard at the best of times, let alone being in the bottom 3 and having missed players wages in November. The likes of this lad, along with Hutchinson and Green on frees is probably where we’re gonna be at and as good as we can hope for. We need to stay up and give ourselves a chance to put things right in the summer, we’re still an attractive club to play for, but not when we’re managerless and ion the league 1 trapdoor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
new zealand owl Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Yes please! Doubt Birmingham would sell to a rival though? What's his contract situation? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ashley8 Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Big lump of wood. Never liked a big striker. Mostly because unless they are a top player they don't score alot and mean you play long ball crap. Also can mean every thing is focused on them look at Wycombe, all there play is focused on the head of one player. As an option good but long term no thanks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gillyno9 Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Good player. Not prolific but a real handful for defenders. Link up play very good as well. Very much in the mould of fletcher. Could do a lot worse. I would imagine our other forwards would love to play up front with him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The only way is S6 Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 He’s a better version of Atdhe. Always seems to score against us, or is that a figment of my imagination? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick70 Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 No idea how long he got left on his contract? Surprised he still playing for kranky they had a big fall out at boro and he bombed him out ! Wouldn’t surprise me to see him move on the way things are panning out it would be above my expectations now if we get him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gurujuan Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Most of us said, it will be what we do in this window, that will decide whether or not we have a decent chance of staying up. We would need to do a lot better than two free agents and this bloke, to improve our chances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JOCOWl Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 I know we're in a dire situation but pinning our hopes on a striker that can't get in Derby squad and a striker that isn't in the first 11 for Birmingham suggests to me we might have a difficult job staying in this league!

TomtheOwl95 Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 We need a number 9. He's exactly the type we need and could realistically get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have to be smart and get in a good player used to this league who is out of favour and who can restart his career with us or a risk on a prem loan/ up and coming lower league player. One striker from each category would be nice 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One striker from each category would be nice I understand the sentiment, but I heard this a lot back in the summer, with most folks satisfied with summer’s dealings Look where that has got us.

The Night-Owl Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Would've loved us to have signed him in the past, he's the type of striker we need. However, we could probably get someone similar and younger for cheaper. Dunno why we don't look at getting someone decent from the lower leagues like Joe Pigott.
