Certainly a 100%er who has quick feet in tight situations. A striker by trade but has played in a few positions.David Moyes signed him on a "Free" from Rangers.

And at 29 it's unlikely that he's going to get any better. He may well have a great attitude, etc., etc., but if we are going to sign another striker it needs to be someone who we can be pretty certain is going to be able to stick the ball in the net regularly. We've got plenty of front-runners who can hold the ball up, bring others into play, and so on and so on; we need something more than that now if we're going to spend cash.

We don't need squad players we need ones that can and will make an impact in the first team. We have plenty of attacking options that aren't good enough, no point adding another one.

I was relieved when I saw this guy was not playing for the toffees on Monday as I have seen him a few times and he is composed intelligent and finishes well - just what we need?

Then why wasn't he playing on Monday and why does this bloke who "finishes well" only have a 1 in 5 record? Sounds like more of what we don't need.

I've always liked him. But to short to play upfront for us.

First, he has often featured on the flanks for Everton, and he was often brought on as a sub. As such, his record is not bad. Whether he is what we need, is another matter. Decent player though.
If you come to a fork in the road, take it. |

I would say forward is our biggest need right now and we need at least two of them, one preferably a genuine Premier League quality goalscorer who will start games and the second a genuine Premier League quality squad player who won't start every week but gives us a better option than Gayle or Campbell off the bench. Naismith is at least worth considering for the latter role as he's an obvious upgrade on Campbell or Gayle. Not saying he's my ideal signing but he would be an upgrade, especially at the right price. If Norwich bought Gayle for 10 million (really?!) and we replaced him with Naismith for 1 million, we'd be having a laugh.

Quality player, underestimated throughout his career. Would take him in a heartbeat for about 7m, he is way better than Gayle, Campbell, Bamford, probably better than Wickham but obviously is older and shorter.
