He looks really good in the air from his youtube videos, the type of player who'll provide a focal point up top and maybe take advantage of all the corners we seem to get in matches.

Something different to what we have and on loan - can't complain.

This makes sense. A low-risk signing with some much needed physical presence - similar to Pog last season.

I may be alone in hoping we don't sign him, that is if he is a target man. I for one don't want to return to lumping the ball onto a big man's head. I like the idea of passing it out from defence, playing a short passing game.

He has the Brazilian ability to receive a ball in his feet, pass it back and run 'in the hole'. His aerial ability has more to do with the fact that he can head a ball in. His type of player is what Fulham needs: a player who will be in the box when one of our agile wingers centers it.

More like Pogrebnyak than Zamora then. That's good. One wonders what this means for Petric, but certainly Petric is not good in the air.

Or we make it work. We have Berbatov and Ruiz who would thrive if we can add a creative central midfielder. What happens to them if we return to the Hodgson era miss out the midfield style?

I agree with your point but do feel its always good to have some variety and flexibility in playing style.

I don't disagree but Jol seems incapable at this time of doing that. As for the Hodgson comment that's completely wrong. We were not long ball with him.

Thats good. It sounds like he's got more variety to his play than some are giving him credit.

Jol is incapable because he doesn't have the players. We need to get the right players in central midfield to link defence to attack. At the moment we have no attack because Berbatov and Ruiz are having to drop into midfield.
I know we didn't play long ball with Hodgson per se, but we used a target man so we frequently did use long ball tactics if not always.

Game over. He apparently just signed for Hoffenheim for EUR 6m.
