swfc1983 Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 If Boro go up and we don't then what's the best value for money? Ifs and buts, Boro are in a great position to go up anyway not sure they needed to spunk £9-13 million on Jordan Rhodes to secure it. His price tag is massively overinflated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swiss Toni Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 If Boro go up and we don't then what's the best value for money? If Boro go up it will be more than likely be because they've been there or thereabouts for a couple of seasons and have the strength in depth, not just purely based on the signing of Rhodes. We should be in that position in a season or so, I wouldn't be so rash as to sign a player for that much just yet that doesn't guarantee anything (apart from maybe an FFP punishment if we don't go up for a season or two). I'd much rather spend the money we are doing at the minute on the quality of player the likes of Forestieri and Hooper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mogbad Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Just seen on Twitter from a reliable account that we are about to bid for McCormack Boro are reportedly paying £9m plus add ons for Rhodes after having a reported bid of £10m for McCormack turned down. If we won't bid for Rhodes we won't be bidding for McCormack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Night-Owl Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 (edited) Why do anyone think we'll bid for McCormack? If Middlesborough couldn't get him and are getting Rhodes instead, then what makes you think we'd get McCormack? McCormack would probably cost more than Rhodes? Judge is the one we should've gone all out for because he's more than a scorer. He's creative and would fit in here like a dream. Personally hoping we go for Judge. Ironically I can see Middlesborough and Derby possibly missing out despite all their spending and their squad strength.

mogbad Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 #transfersnow saying McCormack is on. Not sure how reliable it is. Not very reliable at all. They tweeted that Mark Davies had signed for us on a 2 & a half year deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike312 Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 But would McCormack and Hooper work? I can't see it myself. I agree with mmm judge or at least a wide man is more urgent and cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeonLeon Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 When DC said spending wisely, and at the right times, I think he meant the likes of Hooper & Forestieri. Not spunking the best part of 10million on one player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Night-Owl Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 He will force a move, he isn't happy looking at the news reportsWe won't be getting him. He'll be off to Hull or the Premier League. Besides Judge is the one we should go for, Rhodes and McCormack were always going to be out of our reach. If we can't pay what Brentford want for Judge or won't have our pants pulled down, then there's no chance we'll pay what Fulham want for McCormack.

joelswfc Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Phil McNulty â€@philmcnulty 9s9 seconds ago So Middlesbrough close in on £9m deal for Jordan Rhodes.

The Night-Owl Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I'd say wait and see, it's a little foolish to say something definitely won't happenWell if Rhodes is way out of our League then McCormack is fantasy. If we were willing to pay that sort of money Judge would already be in a Wednesday shirt. I don't think Chansiri will pay over the odds or be messed around. There's frankly no chance of us getting McCormack. And in a way I'm glad we won't pay those sorts of prices. Judge however I reckon would offer value for money because he's much more than a scorer. He's not only one of the top scorers this season he's also one of the top assist makers in the division too. For the price of a Rhodes or McCormack we could get a quality centre back, a midfield enforcer, Judge and probably another striker too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They won't be saying that when they miss out again or get a transfer embargo slapped on them and become another Blackburn or Bolton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
