Phoenix Transfer - speculation (Part 1)

Arent you quite the scout..

serepisos should buy Didier Drogba.

Didn't know Terry had a diving team to go with his basketball and football.....

Drogba = nob who lost Champions League

what about young aussie lad called Hamlet Armenain or something similar - he just got a huge rap in the latest 4-4-2 rated as one of the best strikers in aus outside the aleague has been linked to victory and the bling, is only 23 and has been scoring a bag full of goals, would be cheap to. Wouldnt mind seeing someone like tha signed as the second of our two new strikers - give ricki a rough diamond and see if he can polish it - i think its worth a gamble if we secure a good 1st striker 

He seems pretty good off the volley, wiki doesn't have much of his stats at all, wonder what his ratio is since he's not listed as scoring anything on wiki yet has many goals in the video.

Interesting.

The two clubs he's played for don't inspire confidence...

Could be worth a trial. Might be an expensive one though D:

Haha it's funny how the fans are doing the scouting

Since we're bandying names about...

Played for Turkey. May be a bit expen$ive

This thread is cracking me up. I can just see Tony P pouring over it and studiously taking notes and writing down names...

Wonder if Rickie would ask Roy Keane if he had any striker prospects he could recommend to the Phoenix. Would'nt hurt to ask.

Maybe a Sunderland Reserve player - be great at this level and give them some experience

Shevchenko could be  bargain Marquee - even the US clubs are snubing him as "past it". His value and wage demands must be decreasing by the hour!!

friggen heck - about the only person not speculated here is Hard News- out of contract from Naenae masters

I'm not a striker

(TBH, I'm barely a footballer).

haha im just a glad a certain celtic defenders name isnt being bandied about as speculation

I can't.

You mean.....

I want to be banned I want to be banned!?

Milan want Sheva but american clubs don't? Surely confirms Milan's reputation as the retirement home of footballers! They signed a 34 year old Ibrahim Ba for gods sake! Just after he failed to make an impression in some Scandinavian league!

Ba is one of their former players, and as you know Milan looks after its own. Apparently Ba had fallen on some hard personal/financial times so they gave him a small contract for the season to help him out. He was never going to play or anything...

A striker should be announced within the next couple of weeks

Course he wasn't ever going to play. as I said. retirement home.

a hint? rumour? anything? cmon tis my 18th tomorrow.. birthday present??

is there any source to that allegation because we've been hearing that for a while now?

I think the frustration at no news on a new striker is starting to show, particularly in light of the stated intent of signing 2 new strikers and the disappointment of not securing Joel Porter.

We still have 2 overseas spots in the squad, so the striker could come from anywhere in the world.
So we're probably not going to run out of options ...

like i said - Qu Shengqing or Zhang Yuning...

Zhang Yuning was rubbish.  Grossly over-hyped.  The Chinese Beckham ?  Maybe Victoria.

Both released and unwanted by other A-League sides.  No thanks.
