Sam Vokes

[Sam Ovett]

Been mentioned on a few thread as the possible £1 million + player

Wolves don't want him: http://www.expressandstar.com/sport/wolverhampton-wanderers-fc/2011/06/07/wolves-plan-to-sell-unwanted-trio/

Very young, turns 22 in October.

Experienced in the Championship, was on loan last season at Bristol City and Norwich before being recalled to Wolves.

Very good in the air, so could provide some aerial ability we lost when Murray went.

Yes please

 

[Foolg]

No thanks, can't see him costing anywhere near £1 million anyway, never scored more than 12 in a season and that was in league 1. We could do far better for that kind of money, and he did very little this season on loan either.

 

[mike79]

scored 1 jammy goal for us on loan

didn't look that great but did well as a regular at sheff u before he came to us where he got his match fitness back

 

[OSRGull]

Was he on loan at Leeds in League 1 a few years back or am I thinking of somebody else?

 

[mike79]

yes

 

[Sam Ovett]

From down South aswell, youngster at Bournemouth before being snapped up

 

[HastingsSeagull]

Wood mark2 for me. OK on a free but disappointed if would be considered as big signing. This season's, championship version of Sandaza?

 

[Marshy]

Good player, dont think hes the one though

 

[the right footed denilson]

The perfect signing in my opinion.

 

[Nickols4]

Would be a decent signing in terms of a target man. Would still like to think it might be Ebanks-Blake, more likely to cost £1m + aswell..

Blimey some people have rather high expectations if they'd be disappointed with someone like Vokes. Would be a great signing imho and provide a good presence up front while still being plenty young enough to be trained by Gus for our style of play.

 

[Austrian Gull]

Maierhofer would be flair in a shit way.

But 1.3 million pounds? They'll be lucky to get anywhere near that.

100% this.

More likely to cost 3 or 4m+. He cost Wolves £1.5m and has since been top scorer in the championship and played two seasons in the Premier League (although he was rubbish in the first season). Well out of our price range, I suspect.

 

[B.W.]

Stats:

55 appearances, 61 as sub, 25 goals, mostly at B'muff... most he's got is 1 goal at each club loaned to... 6'0"... age on his side... hmmm... not the special player, IMHO...

 

[crodonilson]

If it's a Wolves striker we're after I'd have thought it would be Andy Keogh. Seems to fit the valuation of about £1.5m.

I'd be very unerwhelmed with Sam Vokes... He's been around for a while and not done much anywhere since Bournemouth. If he came in for around £500k maybe...
