The issue I raised before is would you settle for bringing a striker in from one of the foreign leagues as a total gamble hoping for it to pay off, or wanting a name everyone has heard of?
I meant at championship level. La Liga is a very different league. Colunga's signing in the summer could still turn out to be a very good one, but what I'm saying is signing an unproven player at championship level in january, rather than a known striker who's done it in this league before would...
At this current stage I feel we need someone who is a proven goal scorer at this level and Murray certainly is that. I agree about the whole scouting policy and how that got us to where we were eventually under Poyet, but to take a gamble on discovering an unproven player such as a Colunga type...
There's always the issue of going back to a club that you've done well at before and it then not working at all. Take Benno for example, didn't have enough time, but looked a shadow of what he was when with us before.
Speculation in today's argus.. Bloom refusing to comment on any shown interest by the club, which suggests maybe an enquiry has been made?
I personally would snap your hand off to resign him.
