fpowl Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 (edited) Barrie Mckay would be an excellent signing. He can play on either wing and in a front three. He’s young, paced and with quick feet and chips in with both goals and assists. when you look at the amount of games we have to play next year, with injuries and fatigue during games we need players who can change a game or change how we line up and he will give it us in abundance. I get that we are carrying too many strikers and one needs to go possibly two but I believe this guy improves us and can play further down the field we drop into 4–4-2. Imagine FF and Mckay either side of a fletcher, hooper, or Dave it would terrify this league. Winnall and Matias should look to be moved on to reduce our squad size and try and generate some cash and reduce the wage bill and makay brought in that would be 3 strikers out 1 in which would be good business if we can do it on a loan with a view to buy Edited July 19, 2018 by fpowl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe your fear stems from your prejudice or you're just miffed because we do go out and Blast 2 or 3 Mill on a full back. Why on earth would I be prejudiced? Maybe my fear stems from a player who's weakness is he’s out of his depth and simply isn’t fit for purpose for a team with promotion ambitions! Miffed at not blasting 2 or 3 million on a fullback? What a strange comment , we already have better options without even exploring the loan market! You clearly fall into the category of Wednesdayite who’s happy at thought of Palmer being our first choice RB because he gives “his best” every game...... That’s your prerogative, my view is quite the opposite and that’s my prerogative also! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dangerous accusing someone of being racist just because they don't think Palmer is any good. I don't mind him but he is exceptionally limited. Hunt offered much more going forward and could recover his failings through his pace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaddyOwl Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Total Rumour but lad who cuts my hair had a bloke in prior to Hunt going and said Hunts going to Bristol City for 1.6mill and Reach has had interest from West Ham with the fee been around 12mill! This was apparently said 2 days before anything come out about Hunt. He was tge only player who stayed fit throughout the full season so probably nit gone unnoticed with other clubs Anyone heard this or similar? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think Westwood is going and we are playing a defender up front this season because the bloke near me in the barbers said to the lad cutting his hair...."need to try a new no.1 with a no.4 up top" 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluesteel Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 Only a matter of time before clubs come sniffing for Reach. Perhaps another half season or full season if he does well. Maturing in a similar way that brunt did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waddle and hope he can rediscover his form with us in those first two seasons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
