no contest, Stead for me. I've always liked him, good touch and can hold the ball up well, not a bad finisher, not prolific but would be great in League 1.
If they're being considered as someone who'd replace Deon in the same system then I'd guess that Kandol would be more effective. Stead's probably a better player, but it all depends on the system.
Do we really want a player who's being kicked out of his last club for poor commitment? Isn't that exactly the kind of signing that got us into this frigging mess?

[cite]Posted By: Swisdom[/cite]Would prefer Owen Garvan - also out the door with Stead
Good player, but I was kind of hoping that Parky had gotten over his addiction to signing central midfielders. Which would you drop for him?
Garvan can play on the left. Bailey is anonymous out there o Garvan could fit in there. Garvan will probbaly go to anther championship club anyway. Don't think Stead is good enough for us.
Bailey anonymous????? Just about covering Youga's rabbit holed fence walkabouts. I do wonder whether people watch football or read the NOW goal supplement. Garvan has a bit of class about him a la Ambrose, but when we beat Ipswich the last few years he was absolutely anonymous. Fine when your team's on top at home absolute shite when you have to work for wins, great just another shite Pardew player. Not only that but he's positively pedestrian.
He's certainly anonymous to opposing defenders - when he comes ghosting in unmarked to score every other game.
If Bailey wore a number 9 shirt, was the lucky recipient of Sam's precision crossing, scored 1 goal in 2 (20 goals a season a la Darren Bent), no one would say he was anonymous, he'd be everone's hero and Player of the Year.

WTF???!!!???
I really do wonder what game people are watching sometimes.
What I mean is he is better in the middle as doesn't get involved as much as he could out on the left and he drifts into the middle too much. I did not say he should be dropped as he is probably our best midfielder.

Ideal for us!
" Not naming any names but some players wont play for me again"
Jon Stead is one of them then
Not a great fan of Kandol tbh, but I'd say better the devil you know if we have to get one of them in.
Hope we get a move on do something soon the window closes in less than a week
Kandol quick and young.
Tricky one, really depends who they are playing with, if its Deon I might just go for Kandol
Sounds like a poker hand:
"& I'll raise you with a Kinsella......."
My thoughts exactly....
can play left or centre so is a utility option if suspensions and injuries kick in
Garvan can play on the left. Bailey is anonymous out there o Garvan could fit in there. Garvan will probbaly go to anther championship club anyway. Don't think Stead is good enough for us.

eh !?!?!?!?!.....I guess his goal every 2 games passes you by !!!

Oh, I forgot .......(!)

So therefore he can't hold a candle to Kandol.
