Holmowl Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 (edited) Bit like a poor man’s Forestieri - can’t pin down his best role. Doesnt look a striker. We don’t play a SS. Has played AM a lot and I can see why. Maybe sat in front of Bannan and Luongo that would work, and provide 4 or 5 much-needed goals. Wasnt much impressed by him, but he can play a number of roles which in our new world does make him an asset. Yes, if cheap.

2soon Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 100%, solid mid table player which is what the club need at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2soon Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Also, he'd be one less player to worry about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
modboy Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Football manager (know it's not accurate) have him as on £11k.a week. Much more appropriate for a FL player than previous season squad members Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's pretty much what young Windass is.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
megsonstheman Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Yes, I'd take him back........to Wigan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spookone Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 As good as were going to get under the circumstances and I think he does have something to offer to a mid league (hopefully) championship team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm surprised so many on here are so keen to keep him. Is it because he's available for free and we can't resist a bargain? My mum had a saying for that: buy cheap, buy twice. I just don't think he's good enough. On the other hand we have only one striker on the books with only 5 weeks to go. Maybe we have to get some bodies in, regardless. He'd be better than any of our academy and better than no-one at all. But that's no way to piece together a meaningful squad. I suppose it then comes down to price. If there is no transfer fee and he or his agent are not demanding silly wages then in my mind he would be a good addition. Once we start paying fees I would question how much has he proven his worth at this level? League one and Scottish football are a different kettle of fish to the week in week out grind of the championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwellOwl Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 I think there were encouraging signs to give him an opportunity should it be available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daleblue Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Will Paul Cook accept him back? And is it Paul Cook who's making our signings or has Monk not been told he's history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lincowl Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Nothing special, that Wigan loaned him to us says a lot. Maybe as a cheap squad filler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUMBELOWS91 Posted August 2, 2020 Share Posted August 2, 2020 Yes, definitely, and try and get Wickham back too. I think they make a very good pairing at this level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For all their talent, Hooper, Fletcher and Forestieri would not be signed right now because we know they regularly miss swathes of the season. Wickham is far far less reliable. If we sign him we have taken leave of our senses. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wor’Jackie Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 Yes, Windass back in our squad 100%. He was a rare bright spot in a dismal end of season run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
