Father Ted Posted 30 May 2011 Share Posted 30 May 2011 I would have him here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPH Posted 30 May 2011 Share Posted 30 May 2011 Watched him in the play-off games and was quite impressed to be fair, on occasions looked second to the ball and got there first, always plays towards goal in a direct manor I would be happy to have him as part of our squad and he is available on a free this summer. Its worth pointing out that he looked impressive in the division 1 play off final. i think there are much better options than that about....

iBleedLeicesterColours Posted 30 May 2011 Share Posted 30 May 2011 The amount of goals hes got in that league, he should be capable of scoring in this league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People say we've been tracking him for awhile, but we wont be getting him anyway because it sounds like a done deal between them. No big loss anyway.

hamptonfox Posted 30 May 2011 Share Posted 30 May 2011 CM-S is out of contract in 12 months time, and is looking to move on. He just turned 27, and he is getting better and better as a striker, and as an all round footballer. We would be lucky to have him at Leicester, and my fear would be that he wouldnt come to us, and that he will sign for another club, maybe West Ham, Norwich or Birmingham. He is a Craig Bellamy (but without his temparement) type of player, pacey, and like a wasp, never giving in. He has spent an awful lot of his own time improving his fitness, strength and health, employing fitness coaches privately on top of what PUFC supply to the players. He is a credit to his profession, if we dont buy him now, we would be foolish in the extreme.. Every negative comment about him on here is ignorant, and should be ignored. We need skilled workers and football artisans to make a difference at this level, not expensive "Name" players on their way to becoming has been's. The last time I was so sure about POSH players was when Matthew Etherington and Simon Davies broke through the youth ranks together, and I contacted the club (O'Neills era) to tell them that they were better than what we had in the Prem league - to no repsonse of course - and this is the first time that I have been so sure since. I would love to see him in a Leicester shirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.Lisemore Posted 30 May 2011 Share Posted 30 May 2011 Would love him at Leicester, good player and in a decent Championship side I think he'll score for fun. But hey, Micheal Owen is a bigger name so lets get him instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bilo Posted 30 May 2011 Share Posted 30 May 2011 Not sure to be honest. Under Pearson's system he'd have slotted in nicely but Eriksson demands a more technically and tactically astute player. If he came, I suspect he'd go the same way as Waghorn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peterborofox Posted 30 May 2011 Share Posted 30 May 2011 I'd rather have him than a lot of the Premier big money players we are being linked too, should be after players from the lower leagues than just above. Not convinced he is top end Championship quality, but he deserves the chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamptonfox Posted 30 May 2011 Share Posted 30 May 2011 Spot on, he is the Leagues leading goalscorer, and perhaps Leicester fans remember him from a year or so ago when Peterborough got relegated, and he didnt score at the same rate. Well he is scoring hatfuls and improving all the time. Far better to get an improving player hungry to succeed and make an impact, than someone going downhill, but with an "old reputation" that makes the chattering classes think we have got a class player. Which is the bigger gamble, I would take an improving hungry player every time, its what gets all clubs on the front foot - look at Crawley - they didnt buy has-beens - on another level - Reading & Norwich - both taking people that are hungry, and with enough quality. So enough of the disrespect to the top goalscorer in the entire 92 clubs, and lets get in and make an offer - before we miss the boat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Col city fan Posted 30 May 2011 Share Posted 30 May 2011 I think he's improved an awful lot in the last 18 months. I genuinely reckon he'd be a seriously useful squad player. But as you say, as we have Waghorn there seems little point. I said we should go for McKail-smith weeks ago but was criticised by many on here who said he's not good enough.. I don't agree, I think he'd do very well at city.. And his finishing is MUCH better than waghorns. I like his attitude and his work rate too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcfcsnow Posted 30 May 2011 Share Posted 30 May 2011 Suprised nobody has mentioned Fryatt yet as a comparison. He's a better version of Dickov, doesn't look like the best finisher though despite all his goals. I'd be surprised if he had any impact in the Prem.

Bert Posted 30 May 2011 Share Posted 30 May 2011 We need to be looking at players that are going to do it for us in the championship and then in the premiership if we were to go up. CMS is not one of these I don't think. In the right team though he could do a job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
