Embolo would be a  risk but what a talent and just what we need imo. Going back to JPA, only Gabby and York have scored more for us in the PL era, yet apart from that one brilliant season, he always seemed to flatter to deceive to me.

I think rather than one brilliant season, he had two really good ones.

What I liked about Angel is that he was a proper centre forward who got stuck in but could turn on the class when the fancy took him. The League Cup game against Chelsea is a great example, but those two goals at the Dogheads (one with the outside of his foot) were my favourites.

The one at Bolton away in the League Cup stands out for me.

JPA in his prime would be good right now. Mind you so would a Benteke.

All the JPA chat got me thinking about dear old Savo - I still can't believe that Parma paid 25m euro for him. But for all the misses, his career goal scoring  record isn't too shabby

I thought Savo was quality, scored goals and could link up play well. Got goals everywhere he went, England, Spain, Italy. Top, top player as Harry would say.

don't get me wrong , I  really enjoyed watching him, but I suppose playing here was his least successful period- £16m was a lot to pay for him 15 years ago, especially as he was almost permanently out on loan.

I apologise if wrong but I thought most of the time he was in Spain he was only on loan from Parma

Lescott's the most likely next signing surely as the press were saying today WBA would let him go to us as soon as they sign Fazio from Spurs.

Not for me, not enough football the last 4 years, wasted his time fucking around with Liverpool and Chelsea when he should have been playing week in week out.

He's still managed about 130 games in that time. For me, it would depend on the price and wages.

Shame we were 3 or 4-0 down at the time
