Reserve judgement on this window when we manage to fill these two places. I’m just glad we can get 11 out. Only a few weeks ago the experts on here were decrying the fact DC was buying no players, on the advice of his 11 year old son. Funny old game. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The experts on here a few weeks back were proclaiming we wouldn’t have enough to put a team out. Post some quotes, then. Could do with a laugh.

Maybe he is and I hope your right but looking at his results in previous jobs I think some people maybe getting a little prematurely carried away. Maybe I've just been a Wednesdayite too long and my glass is always half empty. As they say its the hope that kills you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prowl Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 1 hour ago, StudentOwl said: IF he remained fit, he would get 25/30 goals at this level. The problem is, the if should be written in such big font it would be obnoxious to type it out. A quality player whoe body sadly just seems unable to do what it needs to do. A crying shame, because there would be a certain romance to him coming back here, getting 35 games and 30 goals under his belt and firing us back up. In all honesty I think he should drop down to non-league level and just have fun, ala Maddison and Marshall. Just let him jog around and do his thing without training five days a week a professionally-intense games breaking him every 3 games. If only we could get the young Wickham. He was amazing when we had him early on. Different gravy. I'm trusting DM to pull something special out of the hat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But….I do think DM is going to play differently to what we have seen over the last two years, relying on a ‘big man’ to hold up play. A lot more interchanging and mobility…hopefully.

DM could not get much out of what could be argued as better players last term. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pazowl55 Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 If something said to me your front two for the entire season is going to be Paterson and Windass. I would say perfect. Even if we sign some new strikers, which we will. I don't think they will be of the quality to displace these two anyway. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trouble is Windass is already out for the start of the season and beyond, so we need at least one other decent striker and possibly two. No way can you expect Paterson and Windass to be available for forty odd matches as a pair. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But just don't be expecting a Peterborough striker who will bang in 25 goals and be worth 10m next season. both windass and Paterson will be the better players 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it’s the 3 of them Sims, Byers and Johnson they will drop them throughout the day tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
