NIVillan Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Arsenal were prepared to pay over 20 Million for Vardy and isnt he 28/29? If the guy can still play and put the ball in the net who cares what age he is. His fee will be repaid if we get promoted. (Was going to put when but do not want to tempt fate) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 If it wasn't for a release clause it would cost more than 20 million to get Vardy. I think £12M is pretty cheap for McCormack, as I think he'll be a decent striker for another three or four seasons. If we get promoted and he doesn't adapt to the Premier, we'll get some of the fee back from a championship club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PieFacE Posted August 3, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted August 3, 2016 I wouldn't consider Bent a "complete" forward, but I guess that term is what you want it to be really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Posted August 3, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted August 3, 2016 Why is there talk of McCormack playing behind the striker? Quote McCormack's arrival will add further competition for the spots in behind the front three, with Jordan Ayew, Jack Grealish and Leandro Bacuna the preferred choices at present. clicky This is the second time ive read a similar thing. Surely he will be bought in as a centre forward? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtsimonw Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Luca Toni was scoring 20+ a season past 35. Totally different players, but there's no reason why Ross can't be scoring for a few more years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently we would be looking upfront like this with McCormack surely.. Traore* - Ayew - Grealish -------- McCormack ------- Traore can be swapped with Sinclair or Bacuna.. Ideally a new signing, but that should be how we line up based on pre-season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Complete" is normally used to describe someone with all round footballing ability. Bent was good at being in the right place at the right time and finishing chances. Almost everything else, creating chances, holding the ball up, beating a man, vision, passing... was er... lacking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brumerican Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 (edited) I like him . He's really composed in front of goal and rarely panics. Edited August 3, 2016 by Brumerican Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daweii Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 I suppose McCormack and Ayew could be interchangeable. Ayew just needs players around him that can create things so if McCormack can fill that role and score loads then I don't mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 McCormack is a floating striker, he drops deep a lot and pops up wide too. Probably why we're still being linked with Bamford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
