January Transfer Speculation (or lack of) Thread

Bobby has been linked to villa this morning.....your thoughts please?  I personally think he might be a decent signing for us.

Put it this way, he would make a better forward than Emile Heskey.  Its just another option up front.

Big Eck was keen when he was at SHA.  Hadn't they agreed a fee at one stage, but the player himself said no?

If he remains with us, it might be one he revisits.  Also have a feeling we might be one of the clubs in for Jelevic at Rangers.

He's much improved, holds tye ball up as well as anyone in the country. Decent touch, strong and scores a few. It was mentioned on Sunday Supplement yesterday that a lot of the players unhappy with Jol's methods and Zomorra wanted to go but I'm not sure AM would want another striker just now.

He'll be 31 in January, so my guess is a three and a half year contract on £60k a week at MON's Barcelona.

Zamora is alright, can't see a 30 year old striker on big wages being on our radar though.

Is this the start of the January bullshit thread?

He's not a bad player really, he's improved as he's got older.

He fell out with Jol when at Spurs, so not surprised it's happened again.

He'll be off to QPR or the north east IMO.

When you sit in row Z and the ball hits your head, that's Zamora

No too old and not very good and injury prone.

Depends on the price. He's not a bad player at all but it depends on what it costs us.
Would I swap him for Heskey? Absolutely.

I'd rather we gave Delfounso a run in the team that spend big money on BZ.
