Apparently very unhappy at Wolves... Being touted for a move at the right money.. I know we were interested last year and I thought he was quality in both games against us.. Mccarthy's obviously struggling to get the best out of him but he's not the most inspiring figure..!!
Just think Freddie's the ideal age, build and style for Stoke City.. We have a great recent history of polishing cast offs (Higgy, Fuller, Griff, Lawrence, etc) and making them sparkle..
IMHO.. A terrace hero in the making...

good shout, think he would consider moving here aswell
Money would be no problem, bid of 800k would probably get him.
Depends if t.P wants to strengthen upfront really

I said this last week Norters.
McCarthy doesn't like him, I thought it was a good shout last week but got shot down. I've got a mate who's well connected with Wolves, McCarthy doesn't like how he plays and finds space as in he's a proper poacher, he's said he's lazy!
A cheeky bid plus writing off any future fee for Henry would be well worth it!

A fox in the box is just the sort of player we need. Get him signed up!

Fuller and Eastwood up front, there would be many a defence in the championship quaking at that prospect

Fuller and Cresswell is very good, but that is not going to happen until we have an alternative left winger, and even then we need need at least one more striker as well and offload Pericard.

Looks like McCarthy's put in a bid of £1.5m for Ebanks-Blake of Plymouth.

Be amazed if Rudgey's not having a sniff.. He always rated him...
Anything under a million is a great investment..

I work with a Wolves fan, i asked him what he thought of him
"a lazy bone idle wanker that couldn't give a fuck, the quicker we off load him the better"
Not the type of player to bring into a team like Stoke.

It's a difficult one, I would have taken a punt on him in the summer but not sure now, attitude is as important as ability in some cases and I am not sure his is correct for us at the moment. Though could be like Steino or Sheron goal poacher waiting for the right club to bloom again. I wouldn't pay anything over 700,000 though.

Mark... You ask Saints fans about Fuller... Their response is pretty much the same..
I remember my carrot crunching Norwich fan mate pissing himself when we swapped Sheron for nowt....
I also remember when we thought we'd bought the wrong Stein.. the joke was Jock would have been better!!!!!!
I think he's worth a punt.. Our management have shown they can galvanise 'lost causes'...

I don't think he's our "type" of player but I can't see the harm in having him here on loan till the end of the season.
If he doesn't get into the team he could allways tarmac the south car park. ;D

I have to agree, i think he would be an excellent signing, and definately a possible signing, we have seen at southend that he can score at this level, and if anyone can rekindle his goalscoring touch, and get the best of of him it's pulis.

His laziness and bad attitude would only harm our teams currently excellent moral and team spirit - not something we need.

My mate is a big Wolves supporter(the bloke who brings the 'Stoke on Trent Wolves' flag)And he really rates eastwood. Opinions eh? |

Post by Onneravineet on Jan 10, 2008 13:14:57 GMT
Yes the bloke I was on about rates him too and thinks he should get a run and that he is what they need right now as they're short of goals big time!

Could do well for us, but 4 goals in 23 Championship/Carling games for the dingles almost (but not quite) puts him into the Mamma finishing school!
