Adebayor & Crouch - Would you or wouldn't you sign either of them 17:04 - Jan 3 with 2823 viewsRockAndBaconRoll

The very definition of hit and miss from one end of the spectrum to another - Adebayor, available on a free

Peter Crouch - proven goalscorer but probably passed his best - probably a small fee.

Both big wages.

I'm not saying we should but I thought i'd throw it out there and start the debate!

Would either of them be a good signing for us right now and crucially are they better than what we've got?

If we could get either until the end of the season then yes. Sign them for longer then that? No.

If we signed them and they scored goals then people would hail them moments of genius

If we signed them and they didn't score goals then people would hail it is a disaster bigger than the Struel era

I'd go for Adebayor until the end of season and promise him a 3 year contract on a £100k a week if he helps keep us up. If he does, we release him anyway!

Has Adebayor kicked a ball since the end of last season?

wouldn't want either. need a striker who can create opportunities for himself, not one that relies on good service.

Crouch would be an excellent signing IMO. We would still need another striker though

We could do the same with Tim Sherwood. Both great for a few months before they go shit

Monk had the same effect when he took over from Laudrup. Maybe get him back until the end of the season?

That's actually a bit of a myth and why people were so surprised he was kept on. Ye he kept us up, but 17pts from 14 games? That saying he did an outstanding job last year, and his contribution should always be remembered in a positive way.

GM's boat has sailed. Crouch could do a job for us though, just his size alone would help us either end of the pitch.

Crouch and the guy from Villa his name escapes me (or i just cant spell it!) may be worth a gamble but loan options only. We need to try something at least.

Please tell me not Agbonlahor. Worst striker in the league.

Not saying he is but just suggesting a name. Adebayor and Crouch perhaps too similar Agbonlahor has good movement and was in the England squad a few years perhaps a new challenge would suit him. So far most of the names mentioned seem beyond our reach Remy,Austin and Bamford.

I was thinking about good old Crouchy. Worth a punt. Adebayor is usually scintillating first season wherever he goes BUT he is just so lazy. Like Gomis 2.0.

Of course there is the generic Austin, Bamford, Remy rumours.

I'd love to see thought given to Libor Kozak who looked a real steal at Villa until his leg break. I also think Kramaric would suit our style a lot more than Leicester.

OK some stats then - Agbonlahor scored 6 in 34 last year (4 in 30 season before) (none this season in 8 appearances)
Adebayor scored 2 in 13 last year (11 in 21 year before)
Crouch scored 8 in 33 last year (8 in 34 year before)

And then there's Gomis, maybe Adebayor was his mentor.

Gomis 5 in 16 this season. Better recent record than any of the aforementioned. As Monmouth stated some weeks ago, our bet has been made, the chips are down and the wheel is spinning. Anything we do now to change that bet in play as far as a striker is concerned is,

1. Spend money we haven't got.
2. Spend cheap on another striker like Eder, Oliveira or Schecter.
3. Spend high wages on a has been and cross our testicles.
