weston-super Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Good luck to the lad. I wasn't overly excited at first with the news he was coming but the more I think about it the more I think he could possibly be just what we need.To be honest I would like to see him and Ward together for a few games with Sammon to come on when we need fresh legs etc. Hope it works out for both him and Derby. He certainly as an all round ability to his game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacko1983 Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 yeah, it will be sammon and ward for 85 minutes, then martin comes on for the last 5 and ward goes out to the wing. 4-1-2-1-2 ISNT WORKING LETS PLAY 4-2-1-1-2 INSTEAD! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamNut Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Well I'm not chuffed about this tbh. But who knows he could do well here. We are missing that bit of pace now though. We don't need pace . It takes us that long to get down the other end of the pitch that the fastest the striker only needs to be able to walk.

Dcfc93 Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Chris Martin is a decent striker, yes it doesnt look that because hes out on loan all the time but im sure he can help us out in the striking department Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duracell Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Heard he has a stinking attitude but I'm sure he won't mean to cause us any Trouble. This is precisely the sort of player we need to sign to keep up with the clubs who still have the Parachute payments. I really hope he has a decent finish of him and plenty of composure and doesn't get A Rush of Blood to the Head. To be honest, we really need him because right now we seem a bit Lost. Hopefully, he and Sammon will go together like X&Y. But enough with this Talk. I shan't pass any judgment until I actually see him play. Sorry for that para, para, paragraph full of Colplay gags, I'm done now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DcFc Dyycheee Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 The way we play now, it doesn't look like we need pace. We need good link up play, bit of composure in front of goal and good work rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex W Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 Yet still cant get ahead of Connor 'Dead Touch' Sammon. Speaks volumes itself. I like Theo but taking off my rose tinted glasses he's easily one of the worst "footballers" I've ever seen at this level. He's only likable because he's a comedy roadshow on legs. Good luck to Theo but we need better strikers (Same goes for Sammon, maybe Martin) if we want to move forward. Yes, because Nigel views Sammon as more influencial due to his style of play. You don't need good technical ability to do the job that he did. He did his job well. He has been one of our better strikers for quite some time, in goal-scoring rates. Someone called him *****, jesus wept. Theo scores goals. Joint top goalscorer last season despite missing over two months, and had 9 this season in December. Sometimes folk baffle me. Ah well.

I don't mind Theo, but if we are to develop as a footballing side we can't accommodate him just because he can score the odd goal. We need players who are better at all around play, and hopefully Martin fits that category, we'll see though. The problem with Theo is that he's the type of player you want to have on the bench, to have as a 'last roll of the dice' kind of player when you desperately need a goal, but ultimately I doubt he would want to be nothing more than a supersub for us. All the best to the lad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChaddesdenRam Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 This guy will have a work rate no way near that of Sammon I can guarantee. Having done a bit of research he has put on weight at Norwich and lost a bit of pace, he has a great eye for goal but he can get lost at times and isn't proactive in trying to get the ball. Also we can't except him to be match fit. However if he does well and clough attempts to sign him in the summer, he will definitely have a fitness programme for sure. Having said this his strength should allow us to play more balls into the strikers an then actually retain possession, one vital component we have missed in my opinion, especially if we play the awful 451 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oomarkwright Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 we might not win with this one. if he plays well he could stay at norwich for another year. they have an option on him. hope they stay in prem and then buy to strengthen and let him come here. if he stinks, then i guess we lose nothing and we dont sign him.

Duffield Ram Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Looking forward to seeing him tomorrow as been away for a few weeks. Be interesting to see if he does add a different dimension to the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
