WalthamOwl Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 2 minutes ago, Quist said: Blackburn have got 5 players on loan Barry Douglas - Leeds Tom Trybull -Norwich Harvey Elliott - Liverpool Taylor Bellis - Manchester City Jarrad Branthwaite - Everton They bring in proven players at this level who played roles in sides getting promotion out of this league and promising youngsters. I seem to remember us saying we were looking for young energetic exciting players. We end up with Flint, Marriott and Brown Many other clubs have got hold of promising young players. We were linked with a few overseas players who would struggle to get work permit. One decent young player Pickering who signed for Blackburn and was loaned back to Crewe for rest of season. I saw a comment about travelling distance Leeds and Manchester is not far and have young players who are not involved who look better than options we have up front. These are often cheaper than established players nearing end of career. Elliott and Bellis sound very good prospects. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frastheowl Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Danny Graham released by Sunderland... I wonder if he ends up been a last minute panic signing. Wouldn't be my 1st choice by any stretch of the imagination, but given the options available to us, and our current squad, there's an argument to suggest he could bring something different. Can play the lone role well, holds the ball up, links up play, is intelligent with his movement, but his game desperately lacks goals. Would allow Thompson to play 4-2-3-1 with a striker that is actually suited to the role however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we end up with him, or anyone like him, I’ll cooking explode We’ve had 6 months to make sure we get this right, after the summer’s fiasco 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shows how quickly things can change Yep, for a lot of other clubs, we seemingly apart from a couple of years, seem permanently stuck in a time warp rut as football modernises more and more, and leaves us even further behind every year Edited February 1, 2021 by The Night-Owl 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
