Never seen him play, but a good age, good size and goal-scoring record.
We definitely need more punch up front next season. I'd trust Hughes's judgement if he thought Bas Dost was the answer.

Isn't pace an issue with him?

Rubbish, only scoring goals because they're on a plate for him from some stunning Wolfsburg players. Don't rate him

Football does not work around a striker who has an incredibly limited game, no? He creates nothing himself, he has a bit of a shit touch, no pace and offers nothing all game. In another team he would be worthless.

I watched a video of him the other day, and literally every goal he scored was exactly the same. Winger passes it across the goal and Dost taps it in.

SCFC will not find a player that does everything else and score goals, for that you are looking at a £20m + player, 1) we'd be lucky to attract one & 2) Everybody else wants one too & 3) Stoke won't pay the wages or the £20m fee
If we want a grafter, a mobile player who is strong, puts himself about, good in the air and can finish we allready have the best man for the job that scfc is likely to find and be able to sign, his name is Jon Walters. I agree though that CharlieAustin would be a very good signing

My only issue with bringing in a player who only scores goals is what do you do if he doesn't ?
Crouch may not score a lot but offers an aerial threat with good link up play and Diouf offers pace to stretch defences.
From what Ive heard Dost offers nothing but his ability to score goals and thats fine whilst he is scoring but can we afford to carry a player for any amount of games if he can't score and offers nothing else ?

It's the total dismissing of a player that I can't get my head around jimmy You think they'd learn We're all armchair experts mate I think if we are realistic in terms of what we might spend on a striker it narrows it down a bit which is why I think we'll go abroad again. I can't see us going above £10 million and I reckon that would mean someone like Charlie Austin would be out of our range (not to mention his likely inflated QPR salary). Do we take a punt on someone like Gestede at Blackburn? What would he cost? As I've said, Castaignos does it for me in terms of the criteria I have in mind but what do I know?!

I'd take Jordan Rhodes in a flash mate On here though they'd say he's championship at best whilst they'd gladly see us pay £10m for a player from some random European club whose league is not as strong as the championship Clueless

Rhodes is a good shout for the right money. Gestede might be a better option though.

Daft idea I have just had. Hughes was a great striker: Hughes is our manager: Hughes is the best one to choose a striker.
Novel I realise but somehow I think he knows more than me.

I don't think a top striker necessarily would cost £20m. Benteke didn't. Bony didn't.

I watch a lot of Bundesliga and trust me when I say Bas Dost would not suit us. He poaches goals in a team that creates shed loads of chances. The best way to describe him would be Crouch without the ball control.
