adrianpshaw Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 (edited) im not sure we need another striker to be honest, however i am not unhappy with this. Even if its just to see him run for the ball with his amazing run. Season is over for us anyway Edited March 23, 2012 by adrianpshaw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIKI1234 Posted March 23, 2012 Author Share Posted March 23, 2012 (edited) Seen as we already have Bunn, Reid and Kuqi with Simo returning i think there may be more in this signing than just a simple loan. I wonder if this is the sort of loan with a veiw to signing next season, i presume he is out of contract this year and doubt he is ever going to break into the sunderland team, other wise it all seems a bit of a pointless loan.

Well Mvoto wont be happy if last years rumours are correct :-) Fook me, ctblue will be having kittens, a chance for Prozac to dust down one of his :censored: nicknames! Welcome Home BUBBA!!!!

the_mighty_bosh Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Actually really happy about this! Not in terms of strategically helping us but he was so entertaining to watch in the 1st half of last season that he'll help keep things interesting! Welcome back Wrecking ball!

oldhamandy1 Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 It must be with a view to signing him in the summer, if he has improved on his abilty to put the ball in the back of the net he will be one hell of a player. That goal against Notts County was awesome, but there were way to many easy misses. Hopefully we will see him against Bournemouth because the idea of him and Kuqi is a fairly excitable one.

shefflatic Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 (edited) glad to see him back - granted he didn't score as many as he should have done 1st time, but just like the striker we have who is slagged off by many for working his knackers off yet not banging in those 40 goals a season that some fans expect despite having 16; he always worked hard for the team and does have potential. I imagine PD and GT have continued to watch him and i would like to think he has become a little more streetwise on the pitch ala Matt Smith at Macc in getting further experience. Next season if we could have Kuqi, Simpson, Tounk, Reid and Smith - and keep them fit - i think we have goals there provided the rest of the team supplies them. Morais, Tounk, Kuqi, Simpson, KMB, Taylor (when he can be arsed to attack properly and cross the ball) - exciting potential Welcome back Tounk!!

I expect us not to be able to afford Kuqi next season,not sure how accurate it is but I've heard from someone close to the club it's unlikely he'll be here. I can see one of Smith and Reid being sacrificed too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Microcuts Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Almost certainly with a view to signing permanently.. though what does this mean for Smith? Kuqi, Smith and Tonks in a team that can't cross the ball! Can we please start singing "Allez les bleus"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ceskylatic Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Am sound with this. His headers on goal were as woeful as Smith`s but his commitment and entertainment value was top notch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz_Oafc Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Dickov said we tried to get him earlier in the season but finances prevented it, seems like sunderland paying his wages! Sounds like he's a really popular lad behind the scenes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leeslover Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 (edited) I'm claiming a spotter's badge for this one!* I think it's a good move. I'm not confident we'll have Simpson next year for starters and if nothing else it means we won't be stuck for cover just in case the next few games go badly in terms of results and injuries and we need to ensure that we don't get sucked down into trouble * I didn't spot this one, I speculated wildly Edited March 23, 2012 by leeslover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opinions4u Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Oumare Tounkare. Well Mvoto wont be happy if last years rumours are correct :-) The poster later admitted the "argument over a girl" post was a load of made up tosh. Got some mileage though! Welcome back. Hopefully Tonk 2012 is the same as Tonk 2010 ... but doesn't let his head go down so easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lancy lad Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Decent signing this!!! Welcome back Tonks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluehobbit Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 (edited) all he needs is to start like he did last time, it was only towards the end of the season he tired and missed a few chances, his goal for us was a great finish. if hes improved his finishing that would be awesome cause hes a handful, no back 4 would have a minutes peace with him and kukqi in the team Decent signing i think. i reckon Bunn will play out wide for awhile if Big Fil isnt fit to play - looking forward to tomos come on Mr T bang one in for us Must be with a view to signing him for next season i reckon if he gets a few goals before now and the end of the season he will be ours next time we put ourselves through this Edited March 23, 2012 by bluehobbit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longtimeblue Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 Get in.. Favourite player last year. Year older and wiser an all. He wasn't far off from tearing this division apart. I wouldn't be suprised if Kuqi fancied his twilight year with someone else and if Tonks has mastered the art of hitting the net from 8 yards he'll do the business, no doubt. The view to a permanent move qwould make sense. I think the fact that he aint been on loan, with us or anyone else, this season (I reckon Dickov would've had him back if available, especially as he wouldn't let him rest when he needed it last yer) means that they may have had a final look and don't feel he's up to it.

I immediately thought the same. Think he's out of contract at the end of the season and, if he was going to break through at Sunderland, he'd have done it by now. I think he could be a good player at this level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bossrocks Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 (edited) Happy with this - will give us something a bit extra up front and will be interesting to see him play with Kuqi. http://www.youtube.com/embed/_2KNqxwt4Qg Edited March 23, 2012 by bossrocks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

razza699 Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 I really liked Tounkara, he suffered from a burn out here last year but now he should be fresh again this could be good Not sure where he is going to play like , unless Dickov hasnt been too impressed with Bunn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
