In lower leagues generally

Scored one in two over a few seasons in the Championship which is a relatively decent league then translated that record to the Premier League.

He had to have come from somewhere and the somewhere he came from he scored goals.
A lot of goals

Austin has got Beattie Mrk 2 written all over him. Can't understand why people are getting THIS excited about him.

No doubt the lad can finish, but we've yet to sign anyone that can create for Lukaku, never mind an expensive rotation option.

I'm just being realistic about his record, sorry to piss on everyone's parade. After he bags 20 for us next season I'll change my mind on his proven goalscorer status.

if he signed i've got a good feeling he'd do well here tbh. loved beattie but i knew he wouldn't do well here, his scoring record was far away from austin's.

He's just a poacher though mate, to me anyway.

If we sign him and no creative player then I don't think it makes us anymore exciting.

Maybe just me though buddy, I've been wrong a lot before.

BU loses all credibility if thats bull

Very good point actually, if they are to push on do they not need to keep their reputation at a good standard?

Beginning to think Everton sign who the fans tell them to. Deulofeu, Lukaku, Besic and maybe Austin hmmm I mean players that are realistic of course.

Everyone get on telling them to sign Shaqiri too then

Kone was no were near as good a goalscorer as Austin, he has banged them in every were he has been.

yeh his record was a hell of a lot poorer than austins

One premier league season, the rest is mainly league 1 and non league. Look at Kone's record for his clubs, banged double figures for most of his clubs at a much higher level.

Ok so after we go with Naisy and Kone tomorrow, you may change your opinion. He's the least worst option !!
