Morepork Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 42 minutes ago, @owlstalk said: If he's good why is he a free agent? Is a fair question. There will 100% be value out there but do we have a recruitment setup that leads us to these opportunities, I fear not. Our criteria is probably...... * Free - check * Has two legs - check “Welcome to DC’s Wednesday” It’s looking like our market isn’t it. Free and therefore nothing really to lose from his perspective if he doesn’t get paid...... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronio Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 Great signing if we manage to pull it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gurujuan Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 Be interesting to see how he fits into our front line rebuild. Happy enough with the signing, he’ll add a bit of pace and energy to our options. Not sure we can play with two wingers, unless we play with just one striker, as we will always be overrun in midfield. We would need to sign a striker, who could not only lead the line on his own, but was also prolific. Unlikely I’d have thought. If we want a pairing up front, that for me, means operating with the one winger Good to have options though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generally because there are non-footballing reasons why they have been released and, regardless of giving them a chance to reform, the problem always seems to come back later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S63 Owl Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 Sort of player a club like Brentford could make millions on.... Hopefully comes in and makes a difference - will certainly give us a bit of needed pace 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
