Derbados Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 56 goals in. . . 16 years!! ? It would be laughable if didn’t spend the majority of his career playing as a striker! There are Centre backs with better goal scoring records. . . short term or not, to go from Martin to this is nothing short of a farce What happened to Roseniors “1000’s” of players?

Holdsworth was only drafted in because he was assistant manager. We haven't dropped to the level of sticking Twan Scheepers out... yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anag Ram Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Even though I have posted in a derogatory manner it is always possible that CKR knows this is his last hurrah and has busted a gut in training to prove he's worth a chance. He will have a lot of experience and is physical. He may not score many but it's just possible he might create chances for others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My recollection is he spent most of his career in this country as a winger, before switching to CF in his later years. He's coming in as (probably) 4th choice CF and is absolutely not the replacement for Martin. He's coming in as cheap cover for Waghorn, Marriott, and possibly Rooney Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeedsCityRam Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Looks like this is the minority view on here but got a feeling this will prove to be a great move. When everyone is fit, we have a number of goalscoring attacking midfielders/wingers...Lawrence, Jozwiak, Ibe, Sibley, Knight & potentially Wilson. What we don't have is a platform up top to enable us to dominate play higher up the park. Kazim-Richards is a strong, technically decent & mobile (if not pacey) CF that in theory should be able to hold the ball, bring others into play & offer some movement. I dont see him scoring many but he could help others to score a hatful. At worst, he's an option off the bench...at best, he is the missing piece of the jigsaw to get the side firing.

Dean (hick) Saunders Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Don’t think we should say “why not play JHI instead” as they are not the same type of player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RamsFan10 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 I dont like criticising new signings before they play - but what on earth. Saw the link yesterday and ignored it, as i found it completely ridiculous. Never a dull day supporting The Rams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beetle Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 I really do not understand this in anyway shape or form. Maybe we've signed him for cover when Wickham gets injured Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaltRam Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Welcome Col. Lead the line, bring the quick, tricky lads into play, and don't get injured. See Shefki Kuqi for details. Top 6 by Christmas. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAT Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 I like that he says he’s bringing the physicality. It’s definitely what we need. He’ll have goal scorers around him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A player who's preferred at West Brom over 2 other strikers of theirs we've been heavily linked with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramsbottom Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Right then. Just seen this on Insta. Initial reaction was "WHAT THE ACTUAL...!", but having breathed through a paper bag for a few minutes, I've calmed down, and now holding out hope that he turns out to be a Shefki Kuqi style signing. As in, he won't score very often, but he'll slot in precisely how we want to play and bring the best out of Ibe, Lawrence, Sibley & The Polish Messi.
