Saloman Kalou?

Sheepskin Junior · August 30, 2011, 09:04:47 AM

According to Sky Sports Chelsea don't want to keep Kalou and he could go on a free. Striker. Would we want to sign him?

For a small fee/free? Hell yes. Pace and skill would be a bonus.

He is not a 15 goal a season player, but you wonder what a run in the team would do for him...

One little question (as ever) - wages?

Hazey · August 30, 2011, 09:58:39 AM

Saw him driving out of Stamford Bridge last week when I was walking home from work - he drives a poor looking sports car that sounded like a fart in a bath as he took off.

I take it you wouldn't want one of those Fiati's then Hazey? lol

Hazey · August 30, 2011, 10:55:47 AM

I should have added that it would be one of those high pitch squeeky farts.....not a deep long one like an Aston Martin coming at ya! I wouldn't take the car he was in actually, looked like plastic and a poor version of Kit from Knightrider. Some sort of Porsche I think it was?

Yes, his wages would be high, but there would be no transfer fee, so the total cost of ownership might be workable. Go for it!

In a heartbeat but as others mentioned....wages? Maybe a loan deal with option to buy would be a start.

Has he ever lived up to the potential/future that was predicted for him? I honestly doubt it.

Is he better than every striker we have had at the club in the past 3-4 years save maybe Bobby Zamora? I would say yup...

Does he look good because of the club he plays for, take him away from the service etc and is he anygood? I know Chelsea fans who would drive him to the cottage to get rid of him just as some of us would have driven Zam.....moving on anyway.

My old man, who happens to be a supporter of THEM, usually makes the following comment about Kalou:

"Get that f****** useless ****** off the f****** pitch".

Therefore, I'd love to see him sign for us.

It is a fair question but he has scored a lot of self created goals for them too... I think he is certainly an upgrade of Andy Johnson and a bit bigger though not really a hold up player either...

Bendtner is our man.... we have to pony up for him though!

AlFayedsChequebook · August 30, 2011, 04:19:26 PM

Last season he scored 12 in 34 and had 5 assists.

Its a yes from me
