Silly Season January 2014

[Tubey]

That right there is pretty much the entire amount of energy Kenwyne Jones has used in a Stoke shirt in three and a half years at the club.

See look at this celebration, this is what we need at the club.

Would prefer we signed Purple Aki over Kenwyn Jones

He prefers to work at the back, which wouldn't solve our striker shortage.

 

[TheFinnFan]

I wonder has he ever landed on his head

 

[FTY]

Did you know:Kenwyne Jones is from Trinidad and Tobago same as Dennis Lawrence our first-team development coach who is very close to Martinez (came with him from Wigan)?

Unsay that sharpish.

We'd never see it lad.

We'd never see it lad.

He would score more than what Jelavic got last season

not a reason to sign him.

Good point about Lawerence.

I think maybe Martinez is in a bit of a quandary - He obviously rates Kone (I do as well actually), and is happy to see him as our number two striker for next season. The striker to replace Lukaku (or Romelu himself) will be easier to sign in the summer - so I think in his mind he's looking at a striker who he knows will only really be 3rd choice. Obviously he'll want quality but he may well want to spend as little as possible to enable a big bid in the summer for the first choice striker.

For that reason - I really wouldn't be amazed to see Jones come in. Dismayed but not totally surprised.

You have to admire Jones, and his determination to join us. How many players do you know that have gone on strike to force a move to us?? That type of effort and determination is rare in modern day players.

He would score more than what Jelavic got last season

No he wouldn't, at all. In the last 2 and a half years at Stoke he's scored 4 league goals. That's 3 less than Jelavic got last season

Don't care if he went on a starvation diet or got an everton tat on his forhead.

Odemwingie? Does that make Everton this year's QPR?

Someone could be winding him up about Everton, or he is basically thick
