CarewsEyebrowDesigner Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Byram has potential, but we need goals and we need them now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a m ole Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 If he comes in and scores the goals to keep us up would it be money well spent? I'd rather it be spent on paying off the manager responsible for us being in such a desperate position. MON? His prodigé. Almost. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeordieVillan Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 I'd rather have Byram than Lambert. I'd rather have £5m than Lambert. The age matters - it's money down the drain - for free I'd take him on a two year deal. For £5m and a four year contract worth another £10m? I'd rather rod my dog. What if we pay £5m and he scores 5-10 goals and it keeps us safe from relegation - is it worth it? What if we don't sign him and we get relegated because we Benteke doesn't start scoring?

OutByEaster? Posted February 2, 2015 Moderator Share Posted February 2, 2015 Peter Withe 29 Paul McGrath 30 Paul Merson 30 Robbie Keane 32 Brad Freidel 37 hardly in youthful prime when signed If we concentrate on the forwards that played for us as permanent signings - both Withe and Merson were nearer to Lambert's age when they left us than they were we when they arrived. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not as good a player as Benteke, he's not as good a player as Agbonlahor - I have three problems with him - he's not that good, he's old and he's expensive. What if we pay £5m for him and as a result of that and his wages we have to sell players in the summer? There are better players about for the money - players with sell on values - players with futures. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunnski Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Lambert had 13 goals and 11 assists last season. He has 28 goals and 18 assists in 75 premier league games with Southampton. He is more than just a number 9, he has great feet and is very smart and is capable of making things happen for other players.

useless Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Lambert said yesterday that he was interested in a few young English players. Looks like we might have lost out on Alli but maybe this Leeds youngster was one of the others he was talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henry Smith @blankhenry1 · 53m53 minutes ago Heard Villa have not completely given up on Delle Alli #avfc Bloke is reasonably reliable and hardly prolific. Anyway - Rickie Lambert. I hadn't realised he was 32 years old. I'm sure he'd still score at this level in the short term and I really like him as a player, he's strong, he puts the shift in without fail and if you ask me he is absolutely everything that we need right now. However - He's 32. We'd only bring him in on a 2 year contract, surely. So why would he come here? He wouldn't is the answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villan4Life Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 for £5mil touted for Lambert not sure why we don't bid on Wassem Ben Yedder (Toulouse) or take a punt on Mark Uth (Heerenveen) (who is out of contract in summer and top scorer in Erdivisie) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed and my fear is that we know they won't go for it and are just trying to appease the fans so it looks like we tried to do something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
