Bloxwich Owl Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 Sheffield Wednesday are reportedly in talks with Andre Green over a move to Hillsborough ahead of the New Year according to Football Insider. Green has been a free-agent since leaving Aston Villa at the end of the 2019/20 season, and will be eager to find himself a new club in the near future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a decent option, and one who would have been useful during our struggles this season. Given our lack of forward options, and that he has been available from the start of the season, why wait until now? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the stories I read previously are accurate it sounds more like the player is the one who didn’t want to talk to people and was waiting for a more favourable option. Most likely he’s given up now and realises playing for us in a 5 month period will improve his options next summer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've been desperate for alternative forward options since Pulis arrived. We could've brought him in at any point between Pulis arriving and now. Why haven't we? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shetland Owl Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 Would be a good option, think Monk tried to sign him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 Type of player who has flourished and succeeded under Pulis in the past. I think this January Window will give us a taste of what to expect from TP in the future. Regardless of all the b*ll***s about style of play etc., we need someone to sort out this circus and he’s more than capable of doing it IMO? 1 1 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another theory may be, given our situation with wages, perhaps we could not be seen, or allowed, to add anyone else to the payroll. I was told of a trialist who impressed all the coaches while playing for the U23s, but we failed to offer him a contract. It’s odd that, given our striking predicament, we didn’t approach the likes of Whatmore or Kazim -Richards, both of whom have done ok for Boro and Derby Of course there could be plenty of other reasons, but it would have been hard to justify bringing in new players , while still owing our existing players wages 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wilyfox Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 Think Green would be decent if we can get him. Quite quick & strong, and good delivery. Someone to put pressure on Harris to perform. It’s too easy for Kadeem to produce nothing and keep the shirt at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pieman Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 It could be a win, win. We need performances, he needs to perform. If he doesn’t find a club in January and perform to earn a longer term contract, he’s finished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluesteel Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 I think he played as a striker in some games? I wonder if Irvine will change his mind too. Unless he thinks being sat on backside playing guitar is more favourable to his career than playing at the bottom of the league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesteel Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 Obligatory recent highlights. Probably the closest we’d get to a Murphy replacement 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
