At the end of the day, Charlie Austin scored 18 goals last season in the PL for a team who finished bottom and I do believe he would be a real asset at our club. There has been much talk of Vardy coming from Non-League - Austin used to be a bricklayer and played for Poole Town before Danny Wilson signed him for Swindon for an initial £15K.

Am I mad in not wanting him? You can see when Wickham plays, we look far better in the final third, purely down to how he harasses and holds up the ball. Austin can't do that, so I'd be inclined to look for a different type of striker (more akin to Wickham, Murray etc). You forget one thing,Austin puts the ball in the net on a regular basis. It's not as simple as that. I wouldn't be against signing him if he wanted to come, but if he did then we'd need to change how we play, the formation we use, tactics etc. Much easier to buy a square peg for a square hole.

He came to us he would be our top scorer come the end off the season.

When they used him as lone striker later in the season his goals pretty much dried up. Not sure he can lead the line like Wickham (or Murray as he used to)

This post has been merged from a topic called 'Charlie Austin (rumour)' by james03 Well i hope he comes to us, i think .e would score goals for us through the service he'll get from wide and from set pieces also as his good at finding space in the box. 18 goals last year in the prem for a sh*t side,he'll get the goals that fire us into europe,no brainer. As for not being a team player a good player can adapt to any style a team plays. Austin to palace = european football.

The purchase of Austin guarantees absolutely nothing
