I agree he is a traditional CF/#9, but he is NOT just a poacher...
poaching is what he excels at
he doesn't have blistering pace and hes ok in the air

He loves to play a through ball as well. I believe he was second only to Suarez in through balls attempted last season.

i always felt like carlton cole could have developed into a solid front man.
There was a time under Zola when Cole wasn't all that bad as a targetman. He sometimes showed himself to be a good dribbler. But he couldn't get the mental side of the game down, which I think is the biggest thing in the professional level.

Lokoren (who?) want Liverpool-destroyer Amido Balde on loan with option to buy.
I really, really, really hope that Celtic takes it. He's fricking terrible.

Lambert is not a striker for a hipster formation.
Yeah, I was incorrect in that statement. Crazy had a couple great posts that more or less explain the differences between a real 9 and a proper false 9. Lambert is obviously not in the same mould as say Fabregas, or Totti.
In reality Lambert is a classic striker, but with abilities to fall back and play support. He is capable of, and has at times played the role of a false 9. Southampton did it, and he probably will with Liverpool. But that is a very different statement from saying that he is a false 9. Same way we wouldn't call Jose Enrique a goalkeeper simply because he played in goal against Newcastle a few years ago.

Just because he goes on loan doesnt mean they have to pay any of his wages

Considering the ownership, I would imagine NYCFC will pay as much as possible.
I imagine this mainly has to do with the domestic player requirements.
Gotta keep busting through the FFP glass ceiling. Such horseshite.
