has he got any better since he was last here? Wasn't overly impressed last time out

Agree - Hardly inspiring. Not a lot better than we already have.  Maybe it's just an attempt to appease the fan's call for signings.

I guess you watch Watford week in week out to come to that conclusion.

Shocking if true, and would really, really question our boards intentions, if this one went through. Yes, it was 8 years ago, but, Okaka is absolutely bang average, and his goal scoring record is poor. Wouldn't mind if he was technically gifted, but he isn't. Would rather we continued to develop Kamara.

How do you know he's bang average, apart from looking at his statistics.

Would be happy with Okaka he would bring something different

Does anyone know why he isn't playing? Sounds like something substantial

Why would he? He's a Fulham fan. Look up Okaka's goal scoring record, he's bang average, if that.

Watford fans like him. General reactions from other championship clubs fans on twitter as well as Watford fans is that it would be a huge deal for FUlham and they doubt it will get done

9 in 45 PL games. A ratio similar to McBride. Was he bang average?

Well let's see, and if I'm wrong about him, I'll happily hold my hands up, but I watched him whilst here last time, and haven't been impressed with him since. Surprised when he moved to Watford.

Mate, do yourself a favour, and try dropping the whole facts not fiction attitude thingy, it ain't good.

So you can't refute what I posted.

It is his name I guess!

The way I see it is that after spending money on Kamara & Fonte in the summer the club is not going to spend +£10M for a striker - we are the 2nd highest scoring team in the country, less than £10m will get you a bang average striker and the money is better spend on a CB, So.....
A Loan it is - who would you prefer;

Martin or Okaka?!?!

I know who I would prefer!!

Okaka is a disappointing signing on loan until we sign him and he scores and plays well and then we will moan that he should have been bought on a permanent deal.

Great post :)

We really need more power up front, I would welcome him.

[Tabby]

Okaka might be a Slavisa recommendation, seeing as he probably still knows some people around Watford.

Did he play under Joka?

No. But I assume that there are still a couple of coaches around that he knows at the club.

[Mince n Tatties]

He wants to have improved from the last time he played for us..
