Popular Post Lawrie Madden Posted August 8, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted August 8, 2020 No no and thrice no He's a busted flush who has been stealing a living for years Reach is a better player than he is and thats on the form that Reach has shown over the last season 32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OhForAnotherShez Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 probably wants too high wage, and thinks he's the dog's bollax. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philb125 Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 This was type of transfer we were doing before it all went wrong. Good player, decent age, not worked out for him and in need of restarting his career. No good for us in a 352 but if we were to play with 3 upfront he’d be great signing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest wilyfox Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Struggled since leaving Derby 3yrs ago. 28, big wages, lost his edge...would probably be another Rhodes-esque mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southie_Owl Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 I’d rather be pushing the boat out to sign young players like Simmonds or that Everton kid and investing the money in youth, than on has-beens 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's lived on his fathers name and reputation for years. Lightweight, too easily pushed off the ball. No for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good players who’ve lost their way coming to us for a fresh start and doing well. It’s a way of getting quality players at affordable prices. Worked with Lees, Fessi, Bannan. One good season and he’s worth 5-10m easily. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn't worth the £25m that his dad claimed and will, imo, never be worth another fee in career Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some do, some don’t. No exact science which is why there are both failed transfers and successful ones in every club around the world. us signing players with proven quality and pedigree, whilst still a good age and with their stock low is in my opinion a better strategy than paying OTT for players that are the top of their game and a bad age. I’d rather us make signings like this (not necessarily Ince, but using that method) than us pay over the odds for Fletcher, Rhodes, Abdi, Boyd etc. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go look at his stats and feel free to post them and show me his rubbish stats at derby and explain who we had doing better in same position. I get you may not like him, but don’t let your feelings be mistaken with facts. He’s a very good player at this level regardless of what you feel about him and his stats I’m sure back that up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
