Icelandic striker, Kolbeinn Sigthorsson is apparently being watched by Mr. Ben as he runs the rule over potential summer transfer targets. I would hope that a striker is at the top of the list as that, in my opinion, is the position where we are really weak at the minute. With no disrespect intended, Shola Ameobi, Peter Lovenkrands and Shefki Kuqi are not long term answers to our striking problems!
At just 21 years old, Sigthorsson is at the right age for us to be looking. The AZ Alkmaar forward has already scored 14 goals this season including a five goal haul against Venlo in one match earlier on in the season, although, to be fair, that alone doesn’t necessarily mean that we are definitely in for him.
Enough babbling though as I’ve found this 15 minute video of the Icelandic international in action. See what you think.
I know it’s folly to judge a player from a Youtube clip, unless you happen to be Dennis Wise of course, but it’s the only real insight we are likely to get on the player. He looks alright to me. No world beater but better than what we have currently.
What do you think?
Ice I hope its soon because I have had to start taking Dede’s and he needs them for school

Jobey07(Quote)
Andrew, I remember me saying I had a good feeling about the Arsenal game before hand and getting laughed at half way through 😉
dan4toon(Quote)
1-0 Kevin Nolan!!!
Jobey07(Quote)
Welll… i was singing we’re gunna win 5-4 and the guy next to me said i had mental problems 😆 was so close aswell
Jobey07(Quote)
I’ve never celebrated a goal like Tiote’s like…Nolans first vs the mackems came close though.
AndrewNUFC(Quote)
If we had of made it 5-4 I don’t think I’d of had the energy to celebrate after Tiote’s 😆
dan4toon(Quote)
I’d have probably just stared at the pitch in amazement
Jobey07(Quote)
Jobey – 😆
dan4toon(Quote)
I just got tiote on the back of my shirt that day aswell! lucky omen ;D
Jobey07(Quote)
Andrew – in gallowgate mate. Few rows away from richietoon.

Jobey07(Quote)
Me, dan and david are just below the away fans. Good when we are winning but not so when they score…
Getting Barton on my top was a very good choice 🙂
AndrewNUFC(Quote)
