Sam Vokes

Brighton & Hove Albion have signed Wolves striker Sam Vokes on loan until the end of the season. He has had five loan spells away from Molineux since joining Wolves in the summer of 2008. Vokes spent time at Bristol City, Sheffield United and Norwich last season, and scored two goals in nine appearances while on loan at Burnley earlier in the current campaign. The problem is that he has never scored too many goals. His best record was at Bournemouth when he scored 16 in 54 games. Since then he has never been given a run of games (at nearly every club he has been brought as cover for regular strikers). He broke into the first team at Bristol City but pulled his hamstring within after just 13 minutes of making his debut. However, if you take into account of his bad luck, he might turn out to be a very useful striker. I have seen him play for Wales and he seems very good in the air. Something we have not had this season.
