Dunn can also score, dunn can also change the team no one is asking when he will be fit when he has missed more games than played them since he has been here.
Why are you alright with heskey not scoring when he is on the pitch, when your to busy moaning when forss it back.
Bruce can easily put pandiani on and we might get more goals.

i agree with you there!!!

I DONT!!

Im not having a go at Forssell!!!

Fair play to him, Everton turned him down because he was in poor condition and he came to Blues because the board wanted to make the fans happy. They knew that signing Forssell would put a smile on a few faces. He has done what any human being would do in that situation. Fair play to him. I hope he repays our board and manager by scoring a few goals and making me, a paying fan feel better.

Forssell has lost his confidence, I don't think it is so much his injury anymore. He is afraid to run at players and that's why he tends to turn his back to goal and give the ball away. I haven't seen him run properly yet all season. My worry is that his knee may be difficult and unsteady. If that is the case I can't see him ever being back to how he was. Fingers crossed :(

I actaually think he will stay because he wants to repay our faith and patience we shown, but for 1 we wont go down so no need to worry about that, and 2 i think if forssell's given the chance starting THIS saturday he will start scoring and performing cus he looked hungry again against utd in the cup but the simple truth is bruce will pick Sutton and when we get a new pacy striker he'll also pick him over Forssell as bruce looks to have given up on him but give forss a chance he'll prove himself im sure!

Thing is as i pointed out, we ask how long, but how long will it take for pandiani to get a consistant run as he is more likely to score, and how long will it take heskey to get some goals in.

The longer things go on and the more I think about it the more I feel like this is going to be one of these sporting horror storys. Were a great striker, a really good prospect unluckily goes down the drain.

I think Forss had the ability and attitude to be a really great player, 20 goals a season and all that...

...I hope im wrong and he comes back soon to help us out of this mess. A fully fit, sharp, goal hungry Mikel will be like signing a new £10 million striker all over again.

Whats the latest on his injury?

He'll be fine and once fully fit he will be banging them in !

Look, i understand you ladies have a crush on mikael , but questions do need asking , should we have brought another striker to cover the fact it was always going to take him a year to be anywhere near how he used to be, i believe so unfortunately for some reason they have played him KNOWING he would never be fit/sharp yet, he still has not got the movement he used to have and i feel this has also affected his confidence, we should have brought him in and carried on with his rehab instead of playing him ,knowing he is still a shadow of his former self

Forssell was always going to be a gamble.
If he hits the ground running and bangs in 20 goals it looks like excellent value for money. If not, you lose 3 million. About the same amount we lost on morrison.
However, the real issue regarding forssells situation is Brucies fault.
HE made the decision to go into the season with heskey and pandiani as his only fit strikers. To compound this further HE stated at the time that it would take pandiani time to 'catch up' as he had missed pre season due to the protracted transfer.
HE made the decision to sell morrison and blake.
If bruce had purchased forssell AND kept the others, then he would have had the opportunity to recover properly, even go on loan.
imo when you question forssell its unfair. Its brucys bizarre decision making that needs questioning.
Back mikael. As we say, there'll be joys and sorrows too.... this is when he needs our backing. we can help restore his confidence by getting behind the lad.

Sorry daft title to thread IMO.

The Forse had a serious injury, it takes time to get back. These things don't happen by the flick of a switch. They often say, it takes just as long to get back to full fitness as the time out injured, and with that, I look for the Forse to start looking the part in the closing stages of this season but definatley next season.


.............Oh and he scored 2 against Scunthorpe in the League Cup, so wheres the logic?

Scoring 2 against Scunthorpe makes my topic hard to understand?

Ok so I should have said 'Will he ever score a league goal again'

Another point I was trying to make, and i have said this already in the thread is 'Why did steve Bruce get rid of Morrison, Sign Pandiani and Forssell and when both of them were not fully fit and we only had 10 goals a season in Heskey?

Its probably all been said before, however I have been away from the Boards for a while.

Id also like to know the truth behind why he nearly become an Everton player and never.

The Everton thing, is up there with the great wonders of the world. I think everyone has their own opinion, will we ever know?

Mine, i think Blues were slow off the mark, not thinking he'd be availble, which allowed Everton to jump the que, and the Forse attended a medical at Everton to reveal a not fully fit Forse. Blues then jumped in, gave a medical and signed him after consultation with specialist that he'd be ok eventually. - but theres always the conspiracy theories.

As for Brucies decision. Why did he sell Morrison? God knows? But more baffling, where was his replacement? Bruce stated he wanted 4 strikers and has done, even since last season after being caught short following the Force's lone spell ended prematurely!

Did the board force Brucie's hand to sell Morrison with him being out of contract in the summer, to get what cash they could?

Clearly that decision falls at someones feet!
Pandiani no pre-season, the Forse not fully fit. Going into a season with 1 fully fit striker is/was suicidal.

Sometimes you have to wonder why certain decisions are made dont you...

...Makes you wonder who the decisions are made for, the club / fans or the boards benefit. Could it be that Steve Bruce incompetantly started the season with a strike force as sharp a trifle because he simply does not have the know how?
