Just got round to reading yesterdays burtonmail and it seems to me there may be some kind of deal in the offering for dele, just wondering what the general opinion was ?,whilst 1 swallow doesnt make a summer i thought he had a decent game against derby,held the ball up well and looked a relatively fit 37-couldnt make the game weds night so cant comment, would he give us anything different to what we have ?

Largely, older players have not worked well for us.

I'm unsure on Dele, he is a good player no doubts about that, and you can never have too many strikers. I'm not sure that Zola and Richards would be happy on the bench for long though, then theres Yussuf...
Obviously Dele isn't going to be on a pittance either. This is an interesting one. If one of Richards/Zola were to leave I'd snap him up straight away.

I'd sign him based on what I've seen of him against Derby and today against Walsall . He's still got the hunger . He wants the ball . He chases lost causes . He's creative, he's big and strong and he challenges well. I'd love to see him with kee as a striker partnership. A definate signing for me, despite his age .

Richards' goals dried up last season, and if any other striker deserves their place ahead of him, he can't complain. The same applies to Zola, although he always deserved his place in the starting 11.

I was thinking more along the lines of finances, will be interesting to see if we could stretch the budget to accomodate him, bet he was on 4 or 5 grand a week at Forest/Hull.
He certainly is good at what he does. A better target man than Zola, but Calvin isn't really an out and out target man.
