Barnes or Vaz Te?

misterspatch · Aug 29, 2013

With Vaz Te handing in a transfer request and all the rumours circulating about Barnes being off to Burnley, who would you rather have? I think the answer is pretty obvious and with not much difference in price. I'd be very happy for Barnes to go seeing if we got someone of the calibre of Vaz Te.

Not much difference in price? Are you mental?

He'd cost way more, and would expect to be paid way more. WAY more.

Vaz Te worth considerably more and wages would be a prob. He'd go to one of the parachute clubs I'd imagine

I want BOTH.

Are you really comparing Barnes with Vaz Te?, Vaz Te is a 20 goal a season striker at championship level.

Hard one, only seen Vaz Te a couple of times and he has looked good. Mainly what I know about him is other peoples opinion.

Barnes isn't my favourite player but I do see he has potential, would we regret losing him in a couple of years time?

Vaz te for me

Vaz Te is totally unrealistic in my opinion, he'll surely be on more than our highest earner. I reckon he'll be off to QPR.

When he was at Barnsley he would have been on lesser wages than he would be here and admittedly while he may not want a big pay cut, we could offer something up front possibly and the transfer fee he went for originally was around the £2m mark and with interest from fairly big clubs over barnes the transfer fee may not be that different, with Dyche saying they were going to spend big to get targets.

With Bobby Z, Charlie Austin and Andy Johnson?

How is what he was on a couple of years ago at his previous club, even remotely relevant? He is at West Ham. On Premiership wages. He's not going to settle for anything less, to come to us, just because he likes the seaside.

Burnley are not going to offer us £2m for Ashley Barnes. The rumoured offer is a quarter of that.

As Vaz Te has said he wants to leave because he doesn't want to be on the bench or play on the wing why would he join us to that at a lower level for probably less play?

He'd be first team every week.

Okay maybe I'm being wishful with Barnes' value but still, a club that could be pushing for promotion and to be a main player here has go to be attractive regardless of money. Do you think that's everything people think about? Sure at QPR or Reading he could get more but would he be playing all the time?

Instead of Ulloa?

He could play just behind him or we could have 2 upfront. Isn't that what everyone is hoping for when cms is fit? Would be nice to have the option of 3 players upfront we all want in the team.

Blue Valkyrie · Aug 29, 2013

I would be very happy with

Ulloa
Vaz Te
CMS

as our strikers.

We can assess whether Hoskins needs replacing in January.

Similar story to mine.

I have a Mini, I looked at an Aston Martin today and I though.. hmmm. Which would I prefer? I thought the answer was pretty obvious with not much difference in price!

It's exactly the same Tom. All you need to do is get someone to buy the Mini off you, for the price of the Aston Martin. Sorted.

Harsh analogy. You'd be better comparing an Audi to a Beemer.

Regardless, I'd take Barnes every day.

Seriously.

Barnes.
