Rudy Gestede - GONE

Seem to be something in this now.

Hmmm, not 100% convinced he is right for us.
A big step up for him, it all feels a bit jordan Bowyer'ish'

We're buying masses of potential and it's very exciting.

But aren't we missing a wise old head or two?

I don't think I've ever seen him play, but whenever I hear the name I immediately think of the scumbag who murdered Meredith Kercher.

Maybe he's like doom Dublin and can play centre back

The end of kozak perhaps? I'd feel really sorry for him
I certainly hope not - Kozak has a real football brain and can finish. Maybe this is more about the Adebayor loan deal - get Kozak, Gestede and Ayew learning off Ade ...

The obligatory youtube compo I watched he scored an insane amount with his head. Not sure about him, there's always the risk of can they make the step up but he looks a big bastard.

 Fantastic player! Thanks you for your services Rudy! Think you will be an excellent replacement for Benteke and if it doesnt work out you will always be welcome back at BRFC

Blackburn fan I work with says he's the better forward out of him and Rhodes.

Big and quick, plays as a target man.

Worth a punt and makes sense. I think comparing a player who scored 20 plus in the Championship with Bowery is a bit unfair.

We need goals and this guy seemed to find them last season.

Would this suggest that either Kozak and/or Agbonlahor are to be moved on (or kept out wide in Gabby's case...). As I expect Adebayor, Ayew and Gedeste would be first choice.

Of the 2 I'd rather see Gabby move on, Kozak looks a tidy player to me and has something Gabby doesn't - the ability to finish.
