Pavlyuchenko to be shipped off?
1 min read
Erwin Staudt, the Stuttgart President, last night said that his club are still very much interested in signing a striker after the deal to sign Klass-Jan Huntelaar feel through.
"We are interested in a few forwards and have made enquiries for Roman Pavlyuchenko and other players that we feel can lift the club".
I actually would like us to keep Pavlyuchenko. I think we should give him the benefit of the doubt and see what he's like this season.
The only problem I can foresee is his sell-on fee. If he doesn't get the games (and I can't see him starting that many), his value will drop. Stuttgart apparently bid around £10 million for him last month, only to be knocked back by Levy (who spent £13.8 million on bringing him to Spurs).
If he doesn't play that often, how much do you think he'll go for next season? Less than £10 million? I think so.
So from a financial point of view, maybe Harry and Levy do want to be shot of him now. If he does go, I think we should give Obika a go. Let's let our youth flourish!

He's done nothing to earn the respect of us season-ticket holders, nothing whatsoever!
He can't even understand English yet because he's too lazy to even learn English.
Waste of space!
typical bloody blogger no idea of football and u ar a season ticket holder [down the other end of seven sisters]and the writer just as bad!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fact is, (as the 1st post says) Pav hasn't bothered to learn English..he's shown no desire or urgency in pre-season so it does beg the question...just how commited to the cause is he? Answer is, he's not. Time to cash in and buy someone who gives a monkeys.
Bloody awful it is i tell ya LOL
COYS - Better performance against shitty West Ham, lots of goal chances, PAV played well, but still look like we need 10 chances to put one away, just not good enough
Had a long season last year and is very clinical in the box.. think he will prove an effective player this season
You lot will probably want him shipped on this time next year too.
Morons
More going in this season Pav please
Also with giving Obika a few games this season if required, as he was unlucky not to score in europe last season when he got his start.
Given the choice I would have got rid of Pav and kept Bent - but it looks like Bent is straining at the leash, and if they want out, best to let them go.
Would like to see Bostock, Townsend, Parrett and Livermore get some games in the cups too.
