Be disappointed in that 1 season extension is enough

Don't underestimate the worth of Crouchy to the dressing room and in marketing terms. |

As long as we sign another striker this doesn't bother me in the slightest but if we don't and we're pinning our hopes on Crouch and Walters then Hughes wants fucking

Don't see the problem, never relied on pace.
Been at the club since 2011, what a great signing he has been

As long as he's 3rd or 4th choice then it's not really a problem but we all know he won't be  |

I dunno, he can be a decent option. I don't have a problem when he's playing occasionally, it's when we're seemingly building the team around him.
Joselu could have played his role and them some, though.

As it is, he's far, far too close to Plan A - and that's unforgivable. We should be straining every sinew to get a proper striker in over the next 3 weeks. Christ only knows what we're waiting for |

Congratulations big man. Yes he's not as young as when he was banging 1 goal every two games for England but he still knows where the onion bag is and has always been a top fella and pro.

I don't have a problem with keeping Crouchie. He's always a good man to have on the bench and will always get you 4/5 goals a season. The problem I have is if he's on the teamsheet to begin with.

Somebody who is strong and powerful and knows where the net is. Somebody like Bony.... |

Christ only knows what we're waiting for I will be amazed if we sign a striker in Jan, you pay a premium anyway and Jan that will be even higher!!. Maybe a loan but looks like Chelsea lad is off to Swansea. Strikers in Jan are so hard to find. No one wants to sell, look at Defoe at Sunderland! |

I've no problem with him signing a new deal. Just as long as he's not starting games at the expense of promising youth players (Ngoy). He still has a lot to offer if we actually play to his strengths.

Somebody who is strong and powerful and knows where the net is. Somebody like Bony.... Bony is a mystery - but there's not going to be a happy ending on that one and must be 99% certain we've seen the last of him. 27 goals in a season for Swansea and 53 in 53 for Vitesse Arnhem, just turned 28 and yet the prospect of his early departure meets barely a shoulder shrug. So we're left with a 36-year-old, Jonny Walters and a bloke he plays at right-back. I think that does qualify as a crisis in Premier League terms. |
