    Yep Sat was a key example.

    Had he pulled up with the score at 1-1, with Calleri or Fletcher deputising, I'd put good money on us not taking all three points.

    Luckily we were 2-1 up and could sit back and defend the lead.

    We need another threat, badly.

    Anyone whose last decent run without injury was in 2011 has to be classified as injury prone IMO.

    AC is magnificent when fit any playing - he rarely has a bad game

    However, the guy tweaks something or other even in the process of scoring goals.

    So another top level striker is mandatory.

    As for Sakho, as well as being injury prone himself, probably wants to leave it seems.

    Calleri is not the answer. Great he scored on Saturday, however I think if we sign Hogan he'll be gone.

    With the Zaza funds going on J23F and possibly Hogan.

    #transferwindowdone

    Or a cheeky loan and token freebie still to come

    Hogan was out injured from 11 March 2014 until 5 April 2014 and then again from 21 April 2014, he made two brief appearances off the bench in August 2014 and then was off until 19 March 2016.

    In 2014-15 and 2015-16 he played a total of 9 times for a total of 205 minutes

    With our record he'll probably fall down the big gap between the top and bottom tiers while having his photo taken with a West Ham shirt......

    Is Hogan confirmed ?
  • Ravel49Ravel49
    Not yet

    I've just been into the font of knowledge that is wiki and yes hogans injury seems to have been an anterior cruciate ligament and he had to have his knee reconstructed??

    Wow

    ;hmm

    He already came through on that one Domingos Quina
  • YeoldhammerYeoldhammer
    Speaking of Big Oli though he did update me whilst out in Germany that Stoke have an ambitious signing in the pipeline similar to when they got Imbula last year so expect a potential interesting Stoke deal towards the end of the window.

    SSN transfer monkey talking total nonsense ;lol

  • MrsGreyMrsGrey
    A real monkey? ;nonono
  • SuzanneClaretSuzanneClaret
    No, because that would make more sense.

    And be far more watchable.

    Names on a banana - the one the monkey picks is the target.

    Numbers on peanuts - the peanut the monkey picks is the transfer fee in millions.

    Team names on monkey bars - where the monkey stops is the team that wants the player.

    Monkey Market - it's a winner.

    Superb idea. ;clap

    Hull have signed Markovic from Liverpool. Possible replacement for Snodgrass ;hmm

    Ex has re-tweeted his post from last week about Fonte, Hogan and Snodgrass being the most likely to come through the door.

    Watch this space...

    Ok ;ok

    Id rather Markovic than Snodgrass ;hmm
  • alderzalderz
    Twist

    Markovic has been very poor for Lisbon, by all accounts. I also think I read that he was poor on loan last season but I am prepared to be corrected on that one. He also has really not done anything for Liverpool in his time before going on loan.

    Snodgrass has scored goals and created chances for two extremely subpar sides in this division.

    Big Sam on the verge of spending £24m on Schlupp and van Aanholt! ;nonono
  • FortuneseekerFortuneseeker
    Hasn't he already spent £12m on Schlupp? ;wink
