The Centre Forward thread

[ricky2tricky4city]

If I think of Ewan Ferguson and Delap...I can't help thinking you might as well give (or could have ) Lankshear a chance for nothing (£)

I personally see nothing remotely good about Delap. Kevin Davies with more running

That's genuinely unfair on Kevin Davies - he was really effective, terrorised defences and also did that whole putting the ball in the net thingy.

Yeah
So not as recent as our cup win vs them

It was literally one year before we won the EL but ok

Delap is a good player, wanted him but he decided to go to Chelsea and has wasted a year.
Has good pace, good shot, can hold up the ball and is also decent in the air.
Not bad attributes for a centre forward.

Also seemed hard working. As a punt with chavs paying some his wages or a low outlay, I think RDZ might be able get his confidence back annd him firing again. Plus help refine his play. No doubt Delap can be a goal scorer, he needs the right manager and system.

I'd rather keep Richie and Solanke than have Delap. He scored 1 goal all season last season.

Kevin Davies was a very good player.

Delap has a lot of good attributes and I expect him to have a solid career at PL level at a minimum.

I think he'll be the new Steve Sidwell - rot at Chelsea and get £££££ for 4/5 years, then he'll get a move to newly promoted Hull, relegated and go back to Ipswich

Steve Slidwell and Liam Delapse.

Never really seen where the hype about Delap came from, who knows he MAY go on and become a very good player but not for me just now.
