As some of you have alluded to, Winnall is a finisher, he feeds off exceptional service provided mostly by Hourihane, he rarely creates chances, and his biggest problem is picking up the ball deep, he is poor on the ball, though he is a grafter. If you do buy him you are paying for his goals, which aren't guaranteed in my opinion. Fortunately for us, we already have his replacement in Tom Bradshaw who i believe is the better all around player. Personally for me, anything above 500k is acceptable considering he hasn't signed a new contract. We do have players that can provide service though, Hourihane isn't the only assister in the league. Don't think we'll be signing him as Hooper is a similar sort of player and should be back fit soon anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesteel Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Hourihane may be a good passer but we do have a few of those in the side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rather have someone in the mould of Danny Williams. And FFS I would love to see Abdi show us what he can do as he'd be ace but I think he's been put in the trash pile alongside McGugan... forever.

Road Runner Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Apparently Bannan followed Winnall on twitter then unfollowed him quickly after. Must be waiting for the announcement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree however it will probably take Winnall time to "sync" up with your players, plus your style of play is much different to ours. Obviously given time Winnall could be a good signing for you, but will you give him time? And if you get promotion this season will he adapt in the premier league? Definitely not in my opinion.

Just not sure about him really, and I'm probably not alone, as he doesn't seem to have attracted any top flight interest. You think a player who's scored 11 goals in the championship this season would naturally be on the radar of a team bottom of that league or one in the league below? Are you talking about Winnall or have I got confused because that seems absurd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetsheri Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 We've got someone twice as good as hourihane. Carlos won't play him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swiss Toni Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 So has Hourihane followed Winnall around to every club he's been at then otherwise he won't have scored the goals he has? Oh no, wait a minute! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Snooty Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Still don't see any deal being south of £1m even if his contract is up in the summer. Goals are the commodity of this game and with a host of sides (all gunning for promotion) it'll not be a giveaway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely not in my opinion. 500k is peanuts if he bags us 10 goals and that gets us to the prem. We have mcmanaman and foresteiri as well as bannan and hooper who are better than Kent, hammill etc. Yes hourihane has been excellent and has contributed to many of winnalls goals but it's barely all wonderful balls which have been tap ins. Some of his headers for you have been brilliant. Birmingham and Cardiff away spring to mind, yes good balls in but we are capable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Athelwulf Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Joao never looks like scoring. Nuhiu's biggest asset is his size, attracting defenders to him, but he's not prolific. Fletcher's not pulled many trees up either, and Forrester's not hit the back of the net much this time. We need somebody who scores goals, who's in form, so it's a thumbs up from me if he comes. If we're prepared to blew all that cash on Abdi and Reach, then surely we can stump up £2 mil for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh we just can't put them away. Can't get a partnership going between the regular injuries or suspensions between Fletcher, Hooper and FF they've hardly had more than a few games together.

BarnsleyOwl96 Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 I would say recently not as many but foresteiri has been injured and then we needed another winger in which we have added . Hourihane has 4/5 assists for winnall in which 3 are corners/free kicks . We have players who can put a good set piece too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
