Mr. Tom Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Be a bit gutted if Joao goes. Love Fletch but sometimes seems like he needs 20 chances to hit the onion bag. Joao one of those rare players who can pick one out from pretty much anywhere given the slightest whiff of a chance. Shame he’s so mercurial though, very frustrating player at times. Greatly improves us when he can be arsed. Better target man/holdup player than he gets credit for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradowl Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 In today's market we'll have got a lot more for Joao than had he joined Blackburn permanently when he was on loan there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bubbleowl Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 The club just cant win with some fans one minute they're saying we need to sell and squad needs updating then the next what are we selling him for cant have it both way. Yes there are other players that should go but no one has come in for the them so it is what it is, same with rhodes if does'nt want to be here get rid so lets move on and refresh the team, appoint a manager and get behind the team. That's coming from me mr negative Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owlstastic Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Strange one. Reading? He obviously wants to be first choice striker every game. It will be interesting to see if he steps up and adds consistency to his game. Could be a very shrewd move by the 'Royals'. I hope there is a substantial sell on fee. Meanwhile, Bullen needs to get Nuhiu off the chips and running through Greno Woods sharpish. He looks slower and fatter than ever. If he's going to be our 'off the bench' option to turn a game around it's a bit worrying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ballmeist Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Personally I'm happy to get rid, especially if it allows the funds to bring Hector in. If joao was going to be the striker we all wanted / hoped he'd be it would have happened by now. Anything north of £4m would be good business imo.

Guest wilyfox Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 If the fee is less than 5mil then we've been screwed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

33 Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 We don't have one striker good enough to be the main man to score enough goals to get us out of this league. Happy to sell all of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eightace Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 He's not good enough to start but too important to let go. With Rhodes looking to be off too I'm a bit worried about the options up front. If anything happened to Fletcher we'd be in trouble. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wmb Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Needed to shift someone on. Joao is a saleable asset. The reason we have stagnated is because we not done this type of deal in the past 3 seasons. Chansiri will have got us a good deal,m. Ideal world Nuhiu and Winnall go before him but that’s not how football works. Let’s see what the club have lined up for the rest of the week before spitting out dummies out. Also this blistering pace everyone claims Joao has is just not true is it? He’s the quickest striker we have no doubt but he’s not the pacey on the shoulder type of striker some fans are claiming him to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He scored 15 goals in 2018 under JL. That's because he played week in week out...... Needs to play every week and he'd be a 20 goal man I reckon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
