Bluesteel Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 (edited) If we are serious about Venancio would we have heard about it in the paper? That usually only happens when the deal is well along the way. Or if the club would like to divert attention from the priority signing. Venancio could’ve just been a back up option.

latemodelchild Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 I know nowt about him, hadn't really heard of him until recently and have no opinion of him other than what I've seen on here recently. As with every single signing we make though, I will fully support him while he's wearing our beautiful kit. I hope he makes himself a Wednesday legend and helps us on the road to success, whatever form that may take. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose it’s all dependent on how Monk wants us to play. If it’s with a flat back four, then signing Venancio would seem a bit like overkill, unless a couple were to move out. If it’s three at the back, then he’d give us our full quota. Be a tough job though, keeping 6 experienced centre backs happy. Also, it wouldn’t look like much thought had gone into a succession policy, with 4 of them approaching 30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PortlandOwl Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 Nothing against the guy, good luck to him but this is the type of signing we're going to have to get used to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he is going to play 352 we need some mobile forwards in NOW as that system depends on pressing and I cant see Rhodes doing that job every week.

Yes, cause the sploogefest approach has really done us the world of good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lincowl Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 Their fans seem puzzled we would sign him off the back of injury. Hard working, limited league one level defender to hear them tell it. They want rid of Windass desperately too. https://forums.vitalfootball.co.uk/threads/chey-dunkley.103114/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its a bit of a gamble, and we have made a few of those that have gone wrong recently... I guess i have to just hope he doesn't blow out his knee in the first few weeks. You have to assume we have done due diligence at the medical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds similar to Iorfa, has physical attributes but prone to errors in judgement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarnsleyOwl96 Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 Then you read the Wigan fans on Twitter , saying he’s great etc, take it with a pinch of salt and wait to see him play , hes 28 btw so don’t see how he needs ‘older ‘ head 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
