I'm quite looking forward to see him given the chance he couldn't get last season.

I hope we're not going to rely on him too much, I know Fitton mentioned the other day about him stepping up and filling Paynter's shoes but i hope we go out and sign 2 strikers, Preferably an experienced one and a young one, Because if Pericard gets more chances next season and doesn't do the business then we could be in trouble if we haven't got a couple more strikers signed up, Just hope Wilson isn't pinning all his hopes on him without getting another experienced striker in.

His goal scoring record is appalling, I don't deny he holds the ball up well and has shown glimpses where he looked good but he has been poor since he signed although i take into consideration his injury problems and lack of games.

I think at this level VP is easily a minimum 15 goals a season striker. He's just been unlucky with injuries since his move. It must of been hard for him to have to sit on the bench watching Billy & Charlie playing week in week out.

With a good pre-season in front of him i think he'll suprise quite a few people this coming season.

I would be delighted/a tad surprised with 15 goals from Pericard this season.

We've been through this before. His goal scoring record prior to joining us is very similar to Paynter's and his current "goal drought" for us isn't even as long as Austin's longest "goal drought". He was quite highly rated and it was a bit of a surprise him coming here, he was only at Carlisle to put himself in the shop window.

And that's the key right there. Good pre-season, fully fit, a proper run in the side and it's happy days!

I think he will come good, when ive seen him come on, he has been a handful for defenders, and with a full pre season and a few 90 minutes under his belt, i think he can be at least a 10 minimum goalscorer, hes more of a heskey player though, sets up and brings the best out in players rather than a goalscorer from what i've seen, but if you look at his scorpion kick for carlise against norwich and his super striker for stoke, shows there is some goalscoring ability in him Smiley

Statistics like this never really prove anything. This last season being the prime example.

How many times did he really get any amount of game time for us? He certainly didnt play 15 games, which is what it these stats make it look like. A 30 second subs appearance count the same as a 90 minute appearance. Forlan had a similar record at Manu, scored something like 15 goals, but only started about 25-30 games, all the rest were from the bench (Am guessing at these stats, but is something like that).

I say give him a run, if he scores, or to be honest even plays a Heskey type role and sets up play for the rest of the team to score, then alls good. If he does neither then get shot.

Danny Wilson will get the best out of him.

Just like he got the best out of Paynter.
