Ok, soooo Mike Cockerill's put it out there that there's a new striker on the cards..... Who's guessing who??

Personally I'd love to see someone who can not only poach goals, but someone who can score from outside the 18yd box as well!! I can't remember last time we've scored from a decent shot outside the 18.... Would be great to have that kind of ability between the boys and be able to mix it up a little!!

Arnie talked about a guest signing earlier on... But we need rather another striker on a two year deal.

ANYHOW...

Don't care about the name really - never heard of Perez till we were signing him.
ABove all needs pace and the ability to run at players and skin them.
Also a creative mind set that could best benefit from players like Perez, Weemac and Ollie would be optimal.

But yes to be able to strike from outside the box would be a nice change.

NOTE to Arnie - NOT a Danny Allsopp type please.
Rather in the line of Archie Thompson thanks.

What I wouldn't give for David Williams. *SIgh*
Hope Arnie made a call in the last 48 hours to NQF.

Viduka would be epic. Perez short pass to viduka and big dukes puts a pinpoint pass to Perez running through and he scores. Ooooohhh I can dream

We've already got two players in vidukas mould. Surely we don't want another

As the October 1 deadline passes, Arnold will be able to approach any A-League players out of contract at the end of the season as he starts to build a squad he can truly call his own. In his sights are "a couple of good midfielders and a quality striker", the latter being a quicker, more mobile one to complement the bustling frontmen he currently has at his disposal.

Great story article. I recommend reading it all.

He reveals he even tried to sign Chris Payne, another Coastie, who instead joined North Queensland Fury days before Arnold made contact from South Africa.
