Komazawa Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 Just checking out the stats for the season and saw Earnshaw has only started twice this season at Derby. They've just signed a new striker from Mexico.The guy is a goal machine at Championship level - any chance of getting him in on an extended loan? Don't like the guy, but surely would be worth an enquiry? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Komazawa Posted January 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 yeah obviously it'd have to be a loan deal. can't see why not tbh. he didnt even make the derby bench against wigan yesterday.scored 19 goals for norwich last season, despite being out for 3 months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robins72 Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 Cant see it being a problem. Earnshaw isnt rated highly by Derby fans and I cant see him getting in the first team for a while. Although I don't know if hes the answer. Hes definitely a poacher though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcfcchris2016 Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 this was a guy i hated with a passion many many years ago for obvious reasons. never forget when cardiff drew to us in semi final 2nd leg, and earnshaw milking the fact they be in final by doing somersaults in front of Cardiff fans in east end.but then again, I don't want to think about our past struggleing in 3rd tier (and atm that ain't hard), the only thing i'm looking to is the future for our club and i believe Earnshaw would be a top draw signing for the 2nd half of the season but i would regret to say it would have to be a loan deal, and if he gets us goals, he will be forgiven for being a big success at Cardiff, wish i could say the same about Trundle at Swansea get Earnshaw in GJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
double-trouble Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 I'd be interested to see the stats.Posted his name a couple of times over the last few days , he would give us the goals over the next 14 weeks needed to sustain our push , but not on a long term deal me thinks .

They may have signed a striker but they sold Howard and Derby don't exactly have loads of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Note in bold, his record at West Brom when they were in the Premiership. Shows he`s capable of scoring goals at the highest level. And that`s even though Bryan Robson wasn`t picking him regularly. His reason was because he needed to develop his game more than just being a goalscorer. But surely the first job of any striker is to score goals. Anyway, he`d be a great signing for us. Loan or permanantly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taz Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 I'd welcome Earnshaw or Roberts with open arms. Both have proven they can cut it at this level and the next, which is what we'd need IF we did manage to get that far.....I doubt either will happen though as I can't see us spending that sort of money to get them here. Then again I said the same about Trundle and I'd take them over him any day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nibor Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Looks as if Earnshaw will drop to a championship club if it means getting regular games ;http://msnsport.skysports.com/story/0,1952...3050349,00.htmlI'm quite surprised by that.You have to wonder why he doesn't seem to have got a chance from Jewell yet, they're not exactly scoring for fun.I suspect he's talking about dropping down "on loan as long as it costs me nowt".Worth a look though given what he's said there.
