omariqy Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Nixon saying fee agreed for Gestede and the move is on. Rudy Rudy Rudy Rudy! (*To the tune of Kaiser Chiefs Ruby*). AFAIK Nixon is actually ITK at Blackburn. IIRC he's a Blackburn supporter and has good connections there. Partick Thistle I think. But he is very much in with Blackburn.

DCJonah Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 I think it's smart from Sherwood. Putting the ball in the net was a massive issue last year and our only real hope to do it was one man. We're getting players in the squad who will all be able to chip in with goals. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJT123 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Well looks like Kozak won't be given a chance this season. Bit of a shame but I'm all for depth in numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodgyknees Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 (edited) He's 26, and should be hitting his peak soon. Could be a good signing. Reminds me a little of Saha. Edited July 30, 2015 by DK82 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntrimBlack Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Kozak, Ayew, Adebayor, Agbonlahor and Gestede. 5 strikers. Robinson can go out on loan. I hope we keep Kozak. Yep, 4 plus Agbonlahor. So not as many as you think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villan81 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 (edited) Kozak is available according to Nixon.wasnt it Nixon that said going for Adebayor Oulare and a 7 mill striker last week? Edited July 30, 2015 by Villan81 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piav_k4 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 A big target man with an eye for goal, good last season. If it is Kozak, Ayew, Adebayor, Gestede and Agbonlahor i'd be quite happy. You could arguably pair any of those 2 together and make it work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to be on the right spot at the right time. You cannot teach that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Gestede meh, dont see why poor Kozak is not given a chance he has just come back from a bad injury and is scoring goals 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avfcwills10 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Doesn't his goal record at Cardiff worry anyone else? He's also nearly 27 and never done it outside the championship. He's done well at Blackburn but some players just have a good few years at certain clubs. Not convinced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osmark86 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 I'm all for adding depth up front considering our options we have today so I'm happy if this falls through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avfcwills10 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Gestede meh, dont see why poor Kozak is not given a chance he has just come back from a bad injury and is scoring goals Kozak will NEVER be good enough to lead the line for a premier league team. He's a good finisher but apart from that he is literally useless. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post nazvfc Posted July 30, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted July 30, 2015 Unbelievable comments from some fans - we don't need him or him or him. Just wait till the match thread starts - then it 's - we need a striker or X cos he's shit and he's shit. The manager, Fox, Wilkins, and all the ones involved with playing side know a heck of a lot more than we do. The more quality the better - at least our subs will be better than the lowtons and sylla and n'zogbias. Jeesh! 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pez1974 Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Betting suspended on Gestede joining us - seeming to confirm a fee has been agreed. I'm not sure why we need him and Adebayor; I think we need a superstar forward (no idea how we get one!) rather than 4 'decent options' - plus Gabby.

UGC Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Be gutted if Kozak leaves after this. Has looked a handful in pre season. But Gestede seems like a good buy, especially for around £5-7 mil. 20 goals last year in the championship is pretty good, reckon he could kick on and have a Austin/Ings type season for us. After Ade and Rudy, we need a winger or attacking mid to help provide the chances for our strikers. If you look at our squad, after Grealish and Gil, I see no creativity whatsoever. Hope we get Veretout or Praet or someone of that ilk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicho Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Don't think we need both Gestede and Adebayor and as much as Adebayor might be good for a season he won't be "ours" so I hope Gestede is a different option that we take. Would also bugger Spurs in the process Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
