Even so hes had one purple patch in 4 years snd so like JR and Winnall hes not good enough. We'll struggle to score enough goals this season if those three are the only options off the bench.

Hooper would spoil the team ethic in this current set up No real position for him, with the way he plays and distinct lack of pace and overall work rate I would have thought Hooper would have loved the introduction of the new wingers and goreged off their offerings.

Playing on his own upfront??? Far far far too lazy for that position, not to mention slow and no real aerial ability Apart from that though he’d be ideal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes not.good enough to start regularly if our ambition is top.6, and he's probably not what you'd want as your first choice replacement, but as a squad player who offers something different (and he does have talent) he's not a bad option to have on the bench. If he's a 3rd/4th choice forward who's happy with that role and it fits financially then I'm more than happy to.have him around. He seems to be a popular member of the dressing room and he's always available. You need players like that in a squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has never impressed whilst he's been here, fair enough he did the business for Derby but hasn't come close to replicating that since he came back. When he does get on he's more or less a bystander, be better off drafting in one of the Under 23's etc. Having said that would love him to prove me wrong.

gurujuan Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 The most expendable of our current strikers, is Winnall, and the most likely departure, if one were to leave this summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’d have to restructure the team around him - when this current set up is doing well - why do it?? 2. This is probably more important We don’t have him anymore!!

Or, if we’re still in this division and considering the wages they’re on, both of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah sure, in the summer, yes both will probably leave Now though, if any were to leave, you’d have to be looking at Winnall. Forestieri and Nuhiu give us something different if needed, whereas both Rhodes and Winnall are, in theory at least, the most likely to nick you a goal from the bench, but we don’t need both. As the window is only open in this country, to leagues one and two, none of those could afford Rhodes wages. So it probably has to be Winnall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musn't Grumble Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 On 21/08/2019 at 08:02, IWEDFM said: So now we know why he's been left out recently and not included in the 18 Could it be down to a lack of match fitness or is there no way back for him? On Tuesday night, he certainly looked like a player trying to find a position to play in. It was a bit like watching a school games lesson from the last century with the kid in the class who can't play trotting around aimlessly the middle of the pitch. He didn't even track back very often or with determination in the way that Reach, the player who came off for Winnall, had been doing all game. Maybe judging his performance in the twenty minutes he was on the pitch is a little harsh but this is not the player we signed from Barnsley.

Because he is popular and always available is no reason to keep him around and would show a complete lack of ambition by tbe club. We might as well bring Semedo back; he had the same qualities. Nuihu, JR and Winnall all need moving on or releasing at the end of their contracts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Maxine Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 (edited) I hope we see more of Winnall I've never understood why he hasn't been given a good go. Edited August 22, 2019 by Maxine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where do you play Sam in a 433? I thought him playing lone-striker for the last 8 minutes on Tuesday was really odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
