Wolfie20 Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 At 28 much older than I thought. His injury record is poor - in 10 years with Everton & WBA he's averaged less than 20 games a season, with a goal per game record of 1 in 8. There must be better options available if we're looking at strikers so no thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Sagan Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Here's my response from the last time we were linked: On 30/01/2016 at 23:00, Carl Sagan said: A strange thing about us is that we seem to keep being linked with the same players over and over again. Even stranger when their records and injury history are as terrible as Anichiebe's. It would be madness to go near him and if he is the answer, I fear there are many at the club with no idea what the question is. The thread is here: Basically, if we were to end up signing him, the people responsible shouldn't simply be sacked. They should probably be taken out and shot. For that matter, if Anichiebe were a horse, given how often he's injured he'd have been put down by now. Let's just hope it's lazy journalism rather than a lazy recruitment department.

Butros Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 Big& strong but with a heart the size of a pea. I do agree that on his day unplayable as mentioned above. However, his "day" is usually once or twice a season. The rest of the time he is happy to sit on the bench and collect his salary. Its rumored on forums that he turned down a loan move to you guys in January as he didn't want it to damage his chances of signing for a club in the summer, i.e. A few duff performances and no one would want him.

Shuff264 Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 Surely two strikers would need to go out before another came in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome back Butros. So you're not especially an anichebe fan then? If the loan rumours were true then why would he come here now? Even if he were offered.

Harrowram Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Surely we need to move players on before signing more players. I am thinking Baird, Pearce,Bent, Johnson, the Spaniard, Shotton, Buxton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuniverse Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 I see one bookmaker has Derby, Wolves and Birmingham joint favourites to sign Victor Anichebe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derbyram1983 Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 I'm happy we've sold players(I rate as dead wood) but if we sign him it's 1 step forward and two back. We need to sign better than we already have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 At least if he turns up now it would be for free (albeit on a decent wedge no doubt). Imagine if we had spent money on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
