    So it's not done then is it.

    If it was that close or "done' there's no chance Derby would agree to letting him play in a friendly.

    Nor would Huddersfield play him in the friendly and risk a player that are getting rid of get injured.

    Do you not remember Collins playing for Cardiff in the exact same way and even scoring then signing for us imminently after???????

    So preseason isn’t important then .

    We need the new players to integrate.

    Warne has been saying he didn’t have a preseason with his players and the players were not signed by him .

    Im not criticizing Warne I like him but he can’t have it both ways 

    Agreed , a prolific goalscorer or our main source of goals is the most important part of the puzzle and you want him up to speed with the players providing him the service etc , yes there's plenty of time to sign someone before the window closes but there's an urgency to getting them accustomed to Warne team and game plan and fitness levels

    What I’d give for a proper CF ! Pace, power, skill and a shot.

    it’s been a while since we had a CF that scared opponents and was a big neon sign saying “give me the ball and I’ll do something dangerous with it.”

    Crying out for a real Derby’s No 9 

    Chrissy Martin (when he wasn’t falling over), or Nuge in his initial purple patch, maybe. CKR, once in a while, brave though he was. 

    We need a king ! 

    Indeed , godden isn't that person 😂 would love Collins from bris rovers or Clarke harris personally

    If we went 3-4-3 they’d possibly be the two wide forwards with Collins or Washington from our current options through the middle. 3-4-2-1 like we ended the season they could play as the two behind the central striker, both capable of doing so in my own limited view.
    Elder and Ward would then play either side of the “midfield” 4 in either of those formations, essentially still the wingback role, overlapping and creating space/crosses/passes for the 3 forwards. It’s got some real potential if the players buy into it and can make it work on the pitch.

    So 3 centre backs with 2 centre mids and 2 wing backs and 2 centre attacking midfielders behind 1 striker? Sounds tasty but think he'll want 2 strikers

    Hard to call if we are going to play a 352, 3412 or a 343 (with inside fowards or number 10's). 

    Either way our our back 3 looks solid now.

    Don't see where they all fit in, elder and ward are clearly wing backs in a 5 man Defence but if we are playing 2 strikers which I think he will , then where do NML and barkhuizen go? Confused 😂

    Do you know that for a fact or Derby farmed him out in order to help cover his wages and keep him in a bigger shop window? Maybe Derby didn’t try too hard or at all to encourage him to stay/come back. 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Let's not forget beilik forced arsenal to sell him by saying he wanted to be in the first team or leave , so it's very logical to assume he indicated something atleast with us last season although it can't be proved

    Scored 20 goals in a poor Cheltenham team, for 200k he is well worth the gamble imo.

    Scored against us, Ipswich, Plymouth, Sheff W, Wycombe & Peterborough so can do it vs the top teams in the league whi h who we struggled against last season.

    Some brilliant & clinical finishes in the below video of his goals last season.

     

    Would be a signing I'd be quite excited about , dont think he's on our radar for some reason though

    I’m hoping in the time since Warne’s interview was recorded further conversations have been had and negotiations concluded meaning it’ll be a couple more in this week. I like the idea that the bulk of the squad will be together as early as possible in preseason to give them the best chance to gel as a unit. No idea who though. 

    I also think we’ll see Bielik’s move away confirmed early in the week.

     

    Agreed , ideally you'd want your main striker in asap to build relationships with the people providing you the service , hope to see bielik go tbh so we can spend a bit on a striker

    Twine is English. Knight wouldn’t get in the England team so that isn’t a differentiator. And Knight never set the champ alight despite his appearances. Obviously I’m no scout so can’t vouch for one or the other having differing potential ceilings. But based on the information listed, I think it is fair to compare the two.

    I would take twine over knight any day of the week

    I think the difference there is, McGoldrick was always good at doing the stuff he did for us, he just wasn't always used in the right circumstances to get him doing it regularly at other clubs.  Whereas Ward is apparently not great at the stuff we actively want him doing (playing at wingback instead of winger, and crossing), according to the fans who've been watching him regularly for years.

    The guy got 11 assists from right back so I couldn't give a monkeys toss what bitter posh fans are saying about his crossing!!!
