Villareal are interested in Bobby Z

I know that I have not been one to show confidence in him as a striker as his shooting abilities have varied from one game to another, but I do think he is a valuable component to the fulham squad with his play making abilities. If we needed to replace him we would need someone to play the role of feeder to AJ

 

Anyone else really want Fulham to Just splurge and get someone who is creative and works their ass off like Yossi Benayoun of Liverpool? Not saying it would ever happen, just saying it would be nice.

 

Splurging is dangerous, but yeah, if Fulham existed in Utopia, splurging for all kinds of name players would be great. Hodgson will find some no-name gems for Fulham though, so even better do the costs.

 

Well, how about this guy Tevez? Apparently he is pretty good and hates man u... other than an insatiable hatred for Chelscum.. what more could you ask for?

I would probably choke on air if we signed him, but it would be exciting. However, maybe feel a little too Man City/Robinho esque.

 

Don't think we can afford that price tag. Strikes as a bit of a primadonna (which aren't all good strikers?).

I'd say, especially after watching the UEFA Cup semis and seeing so many of them, that we should look at the Brazilian talent that may be in our range. If they are willing to go to the Ukraine or Russia, London shoud be a MUCH more attractive option. Again, may be a little out of our range, but Vagner Love of CSKA Moscova would be great, or someone similar.

 

Yeah, I agree. I bet it would take a lot to pull him away from them. I reall y think we need a good attacking center mid after today's game with Chelsea. Murphy started out great filling in for Bullard, but I am starting to feel that he is running out of steam in the attacking role.

 

the football league ended this weekend, and on my blog i posted some quick thoughts about who will probably go this summer, based on their respected performances.

what do you all think?

 

I'd like EJ back for purely selfish, nationalistic reasons. If he has a shot at all of playing in WC 2010, I want our guys getting more playing time together. On that note, Fulham should get Gooch (he said for the hundredth time), and/or Donovan, and/or Beasley, and/or Bradley, and/or.....

Good research and write-up, timmyg.

 

yep. and Maurcie Edu

 

No to Donovan. I am just not sold on his mental makeup. At least this time w/ Bayern Munich he gave it an honest go, but I just don't like him outside of MLS.

As far as Googh, keep hope alive! I'd take him over PK.

 

You forgot Seol, Don...

 

Isn't Andreassen gone as well?

 

Andranik has returned:

Haven't heard anything about the other loaned players.

 

Andreasen is on loan to Hannover and under contract with Fulham thru 2011.

Seol went out on loan but I believe he was sold in the January '09 window. I could be wrong on that one (wishful thinking?).

 

Fulham is in for Ghana's Prince Tagoe (tall striker). Plays in Saudi Arabia.
