I'm just trying to think of players who could fit in the Sidibe role if Sidibe's injury is a long term one. So far I can think of Kevin Davies and Kenwyne Jones, but they'd both be expensive.

Unfortunately there's very little chance of us signing a striker from around 13 teams in the Premier League, its too tight.
I'm not his biggest fan, and he's not exactly Mama (who is pretty unique), but the ball sticks to James Beattie and he has the experience we'll require, and you might get a couple of goals too??
Manucho at Man Utd is often mentioned.

Intresting call on Lita.

Post by Olgrligm on Dec 13, 2008 16:32:31 GMT
Lita had one of the worst games I've seen from a footballer when we played Reading in the League Cup. He also set Charlton off on their way to their current position last year.
Zigic was a good call. Heskey? Then again, he'd be expensive and all he does is fall over.

Heskey would cost too much

Dozy Dave is the answer to nothing and Marlon King is not a friend of Ric.
There are not many players who can work the role that Mama has at Stoke. He links up play when we have possession and pressurises all of their back four when the opposition are in possession.
Mama has become 'Mr Stoke City' with his effort, determination and engaging character. Replacing him is close to impossible and I worry about our prospects without him.

I've said it before, but I'd take a sizeable look at Cristiano Lucarelli. Strong, goals and strong character.

I really want to see Benjani here and I don't think he's an unrealistic target.

Makulala or whatever his name is at Benfica.

If we stay up and the current bottom 3 go down then...
Jones and Cisse (Sunderland), Jason Roberts (Blackburn) and Ishmael Miller (West Brom) would all be reasonable targets for nest year, and would all fit into the system in either the Mama or the Fuller role.
We really need an alternative in both the forward positions...one to hold the ball up and win the flick ons ala Mama, and the other to create chances out of nothing and run at people ala Fuller.
As for an identikit Mama in January...I'm struggling to think of anyone better than the above suggestions, or the original man himself.
