Joao has the talent.. he just needs to be consistent every game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the time, possibly, but you always have a chance if the player has that sort of skill set. We should have played him more as well People say we should be more like Brentford in their approach to recruitment, but there is no way Brentford would have played Fletcher ahead of Joao. In fact, they would never have signed Fletcher in the first place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has had a niggling, and persistent injury, but his goals per minutes record is quite good, 7 league goals and 3 assists from 20 games, including sub appearances 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZicoSterland2 Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Was a proper no nonsense defender would have him back today. Would be double bonus no fee. Borner, Iorfa , Vernacio would be a back 3 to rival most in this league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wakefield owl Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Is it the same with all clubs that many players suddenly become far better once they leave? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you really think they, along with Monk have identified Venancio without any prior input from somebody else given his history with the club?

He's coming on a free now...result So we did miss a trick not signing him last time around then - becuase we were unable to do so due to being under an embargo having not got our own house in order. I'd have rather had him available for the past two seasons than call it a 'result' potentially getting him for free now. He would be a first team regular and a good addition if we could get him in.
