owlsite Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 If he has recovered from his broken leg and could get back to his great form with Wigan, then he could be a great signing. Big, strong, defender, who is a real threat in the air from set pieces. Risky because of his injury but if cheap enough, I think he’s worth a gamble.

Holmowl Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Perfectly decent track-record. Scores an average of 5-6 a season, which is great from CB. Very tall. Always useful. Very good fitness record until this leg- break, but of course this misfortune makes him a big gamble though must reduce his cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A centre back scoring like that I assume will be largely from corners and free kicks which are dependent on the quality of the ball in....so expect one per season with us 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McRightSide Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 I've always liked Dunkley. I would even go so far as rating him as one of the best players I've never heard of. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shiregreenowl 80 Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Don't know why people get hung up about breaking his leg! Can be fixed fairly easy these days, just a slow process to heal. And when fully recovered the bone is stronger than before! So not like he is going to start running and his leg will fall off. Now if its ligaments that's a different story. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s case by case, but I can see why some would be concerned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gurujuan Posted August 11, 2020 Share Posted August 11, 2020 Not sure our strategy should be about raiding Wigan, apart from a hot run at the end of the season, they’ve been pretty poo The only two players worth taking, are Robinson and Lowe, probably the only ones we haven’t been linked with They were perhaps unlucky to be relegated in the end, but they’ve been in and around the relegation places for a few years now. Certainly not much there to get excited about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
