Sign a Marquee Striker

[Roy Law]

I don't think McAllister has scored a goal this calendar year?

 

[Kareem]

I agree with most, we are actually playing some attractive football for a change, but the front 2 are useless. When did Mcallister last score a goal? I had a case of beer on him scoring 10 last season,bad move that.

Correct me if I am wrong...but my only recollection of him scoring was QLD away...with those 2 goals (one absolutely stunning)
That was round 3 or 4 last season (when Elrich got injured)...
I remember thinking- bull crap McAllister will have trouble finding the net...I now reract that thought
Maybe he has scored some other time...I am just struggling big time...I wish he scored instead of passing it that game at Perth- just to get a goal for his name

 

[Part_Timer]

uhh he won us a derby against newcastle also..

 

[greenpoint]

What's Viduka doing at the moment?

uhh he won us a derby against newcastle also..

my bad
he also scored a scrappy tap in vs Sydney. 4 goals...a slightly bad return- but somewhat sufficient
He also had a quality strike vs Melbourne ruled out
so 3/5 goals were classy as hell...but all of us just want him to score any goal no matter how ugly!
ps. I just had a look at QLD game again- amazing Jedinak FK & Macallister finesse shot!

Big Mac is a decent player....actually playing well at the moment, just struggling to remember where the goal is. I'm suprised alot of people can't see his value but folks want to see goals and he's lacking a bit of confidence in front of goal. Problem we have is that apart from Matty, no one else up front is looking like scoring. Kwas,D-Mac and Nik are all goal shy. Credit to LM for bringing in some quality to our defence and midfield and i'm sure he's flat out trying to find someone who can deliver. 

 

[BaysideMariner]

I think with Big Mac, he is all about confidence. If and when he knocks a few in he will keep going. Didn't this forum wait until Matt Simons finally scored???? And look now at his confidence. Big Mac is at least trying to rectify his situation.

Matty was a young, developing striker from a local club, on f**k all coin playing off the bench. Dmac is a seasoned veteran with Euro experience on much better money (assumption). Who do you think we would have more patience with?

 

[FFC Mariner]

Back on topic, not an out and out striker and we probably couldnt afford him but what about

Nicky Carle?

 

[Atomic]

Will part of the terms and conditions be that he renounces all good will he may feel towards the scum?

ex scum

no thanks

 

[FFC Mariner]

So if Sackwhack wants to come back and talks to Heff.....................

 

[Bear]

i would stop activly supporting the ccm if we signed him

 

[Wombat]

I'd love Carle (even as an ex Scum) but he is on the up and won't come back to Oz for a while.

+1 I put him in the Mucat and Tiatto category

 

[Forum Phoenix]

I'd love Carle (even as an ex Scum) but he is on the up and won't come back to Oz for a while.

I'd happily turn a blind eye to Carles sordid past... but Sackwhack has gone well beyond redemption.

 

[pjennings]

I'd love Carle (even as an ex Scum) but he is on the up and won't come back to Oz for a while.

I'd put him in the Sasho category. Happy to jeer him for SFC or Scum - but glad when we signed him.

If it was sackwhack, definitely not.

If we could get him on loan and still get a quick clinical striker I think we would take a lot of stopping. At the end of the day he needs game time in a World Cup year - a loan deal may be his best option. (maybe we could loan a couple of ex Socceroos back)

If we did get him I  would play him at DCM as he was in the Championship - with license to go forward.

Quick clinical striker Matty

 

[Marquee]

Mouthwatering lineup PJ but I assume he would rather go back to the Jets instead of us, who want him too.

 

[Forum Phoenix]

We could afford to offer him marquee.
Personally think he'd be better value than Sterjovski and close to Culina.

But anyhow, well beyond highly unlikely, and if we are going to spend up and bring someone in WE ABSOLUTELY NEED A STRIKER - not someone to take over Weemacs role which is where would best suit Carle.
