Samurai Blue Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 (edited) Bit awkward this, but turns out the club has in fact been scouting Wycombe. Edited January 12, 2020 by Samurai Blue 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fpowl Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 If we get wickham in and Rhodes left I think that would be awesome business another expensive striker leaving which hasn’t worked for us I mean him no dis justice and wish him all the best replaced with a premier league striker at a good age who’s been successful with us before and as all round better attributes I think a run of 4-5 games will see that we’ve signed a colossal forward in this division he’d be like out Dwight Gayle but better a real handful question marks like anybody who hasn’t played a lot of football even if fit is if they breakdown I’d hope we get a loan agreed with the option of a future transfer and this is signed off regardless of what the EFL do because in theory it’s could to go down as one of the divisions best bit of business signing a 26 year old Connor wickham on a 4-5 year deal for 5 million you never know if they work or not until you sign them I actually thought rhodes and winnal could have been great signings at the time where we was and what we was pushing for. Rhodes showed signs of decline but was still pretty deadly goals to game and winnal was on fire for the dingles hindsight is a keyboard warriors friend at times 5 million of wickham bargain could easily get 10-15 plus 12-18 month later if it’s the wickham we want....yes that’s a could and if like all transfers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sMacLean Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 My uncle is an Ipswich ST holder and said if we end up going for Wickham and Rhodes together Marcus Stewart will be expecting the call next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like most I've rooted for him but it's just not going to happen for him. It's a real shame but we have got to evolve now! Wickham is very intelligent, strong, pretty quick (for a big lad) and very good in the air so for me he needs to be partnered with pace! The big man little man type of pairing! FF could play that role but who knows with him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avon barksdale Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Wouldn’t touch Wickham with a barge pole.The emergence of Dawson , fox, iorfa and Borner shows the path we need to take. Young players with a point to prove, no ego, willingness to learn and not millionaires. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High profile, expensive strikers who fail to deliver. Time we tried a different method in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure that we deliberately went down the road of finding someone who fails to deliver but, having said that, Steven Fletcher meets your first 2 criteria and turned out OK.

Jeffers was a complete t***er, along with Bothroyd who didn’t want to be here.it just hasn’t worked for Rhodes but he wasn’t helped with the ball lumped up to him and also being played out wide. Wickham has knuckled down and worked hard for his previous loan spells and I couldn’t see this one being any different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
