si_aston Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 Hopefully he won't have enough time to settle in and make much of an impact. He's a decent player on his day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 Lets hope it has an adverse effect on team spirit?! Seems Stoke are not showing faith in their current squad with all these "emergency" deals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin phantom Posted March 27, 2008 Admin Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 Hopefully he won't have enough time to settle in and make much of an impact. He's a decent player on his day. that's why Newcastle who can't seem to score let him go on loan ! He was potentially a good player, but recently has flattered to deceive . . .

cidersam Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 All these loan signings just shows they are panicking plus must unsettle the squad of players that got them this far to know that they are so close to promotion and the manger don't trust that they are good enough to go all the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got Marcus Stewart in the twilight of his career as where Ameobi is only 26 and has his best years ahead of him. Not a great comparison.

easton boy Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 Read my mind Easton Boy, doesnt seem a bad scoring record that. Like I said Badger, I, like probably everyone else on here, thought he is NOT a Prem striker and still do, but fair plays to the dude, he has got a gsa comparable to Shearer, Ian Wright Andy Cole etc!!!(NOT THAT HE COULD TIE ANY OF THEIR BOOT LACES TOGETHER) and all his goals have been scored at a Prem club. Also that is not to say he will gel into the Stoke set-up. Will he enjoy the stiff neck every Sunday morning from the hoofball played under tiny p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to see our rivals strengthen thier squads whilst we make do with what we've got. Let me guess......Trundle to come good and score a couple this Saturday Just to provide a bit of balance to what you are saying let's remember that Charlton "strengthened" their squad with Lita and Sinclair a couple of weeks ago. Result? Lita yet to score, Sinclair buggers off to Palace and Charlton out of the play off positions. Whilst we are making do with what we've got, we do happen to have a fit Steve Brooker for the first time in about 18 months - a definite improvement on both Byfield and Trundle in my view.

Tunley Legend Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 good to see that while our promotion rivals are out adding strength in dept to their sqauds our management are running around in Laserquest! It was the players who went to Laserquest. Are you trying to make something out of nothing? Johnson has always said he would not be using the loan system and he stands or falls by that decision. I would have liked to have seen a loan deal for a quality forward in January but presumably that is very easy to want and more difficult to arrange.

I think he is a little under the radar as far as our opponents are concerned and that, I like a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristolian76 Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 Stoke have completed the signing of quality striker shola ameobi on loan from newcastle for the rest of the season Where do you get the quality bit from?

garlicbread Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 Surely it takes a few games (i.e more than 6) for any player to settle into a team. These teams who get players in on 'emergeancy' loans, must be sending out a lack of confidence to the current players which must affect morale and loyalty. I'm starting to get a funny feeling that this is starting to play into our hands... The messiah might be proved right all along...possible masterstroke on the cards?? CMON CITY!!!!!!!!!!!!
