Put it one way I know martinez Got kone for £6mill but give him time.and would never have got 3 signings in a million years on deadline day especially lukaku who's proven goal scorer!

Gut feel is would rather have kept Vic thn hastily boght Kone in for the same money. RM can be under noillusions now in terms of what the fans expect, especially if he reads the posts on here!

I would rather of kept Anichibe. But, Kone did do well last year and he is kind of a safety net for Martinez in my eyes as he knows what he is all about and how to use him. Further more Kone's play is similar to Anichibe's in some respects, but hehas more of a goal threat. So overall, we have got rid of Anichibe, who is good and I like but he doesn't exactly bag loads of goals, and have got Lukaku and Kone.

Can't believe anyone would say keep Vic, he was a yard dog. Never score double figures a season, was a sulk and used to get knocked off the ball.

He wasn't good enough for Everton

Victor Anichebe was simply not good enough, too interested in wrestling CB's and the amount of times I seen him switch off when passes were coming his way was ridiculous, no concentration on the game whatsoever.Hardly prolific was he?.West Brom fans are fuming they spent £6 mill on him.

Vic scored 26 all compititions in all the years he was with us.enough said

When you buy something its yours, when you loan something you are borrowing it, basically we have borrowed lukaku not signed him, what does that say for our ambition? Probably going to be one of our best players this season and he isn't even ours {Ed025's Note - he is helping out, loads of clubs do it, whats wrong with that?..


8.) 06 Sep 2013
I understand that ed002 and you are right, I just wish we could buy the type of players we want like the big clubs do, I mean all we are doing is developing him for Chelsea, there's not much chance he will sign for us next year is there {Ed025's Note - no mate...but it does get others playing with a player who enhances the team, ready for when we do buy a new striker, and will be a learning curve for our forwards, as well as giving us a chance to hopefully challenge for europe..

People have short memories - technically we have three players who can put the ball in the back of the net

Lukaku 17 goals 4 assists

Kone 13 goals 4 assists

Jellavic 11 goals assists since jan 12
8 goals 5 assists - he went bad being scoring plus 20 goals for other teams the seasons before he played for us - moyes curse on strikers.

Norwich 7 on 8 off 67% poss
West Brom 8 on 6 off 62% poss
Cardiff 3 on 5 off plus penalty 63 % poss
