networker1884 Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Hughes will be an important player for a promotion push. If we get into the Prem, we'll get more than £10m coming into the club just from TV rights, nevermind the rest! So what is more important? £10m of players, or Will Hughes? Lets say we spend £1m this summer on a left back that's as good as Brayford, and bring in a couple of other cheap players like we did last summer (Coutts/Jacobs). Do we really need £10m worth of improvments to the squad?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Dave Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Abdul Razak? Would make sense as he i a defensive mid, but i remember him playing for pompey and skilling someone in his own box, dont think clough would have been impressed, we all remember what happened when cywka did that.

But we've got Barker coming back next season, and Ward can score 20+ a season as he's showing. Anyway, it doesn't cost £10m for those 3 players.

-JW- Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 I've been told it's £10 million, plus Tom Glick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ward has 6 goals and 5 assists in 10 or 11 games. Thats without getting a run of games, if he gets 40 game a season that 25 goals and 20 assists. We cant say he can or cant untill he gets that many games under his belt beacause only time will tell. Plus how do we know Barker wont be any good when he comes back, yes he is likely to be slow but he can make up for that with positional play Clough lengthened his contract so he obviously has faith in him.

Anyway, it doesn't cost £10m for those 3 players. Both Ward and Barker are injury prone. Even when free from injury, Ward didnt score 20 goals or even 10.

cannable Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Both Ward and Barker are injury prone. Even when free from injury, Ward didnt score 20 goals or even 10. To be fair he was played left midfield last season. The season before that when he was on loan we played him as a striker and he score 5 in 13.

Jacko1983 Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 billy sharp at derby and i would put money on a promotion place this season. he would have scored a hattrick in most of the games theo scored in lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davenportram Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Never ever place a bet if you truly believe that Billy Sharp is the only thing between us and promotion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaddesdenRam Posted January 21, 2013 Author Share Posted January 21, 2013 You can't say guaranteed that ward won't get 20 plus goals a season. His ratio up front proves he can But his injury problems may lower that tally fair enough but you can't account for injuries as one injury could be a knock and next week he could tear his hamstring. When ward wasn't injured ie last season he played out wide. As for barker, who are you to say he cannot be as good as he was?? I agree in my opinion he won't come back stronger but loads of players have come back from serious injuries even 30 year olds. We are not medically trained well someone maybe then fair enough but how can we tell. Also barker is not injury prone, that implies you have a reoccurring injury problem. Barker has just had two very unfortunate tackles in his derby career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddie Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Abdul Razak? Youngest player to take a test match hat-trick. Oh sorry, that was Abdul Razzaq. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
networker1884 Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 If Zaha's worth £15m, then Hughes is well worth £10m. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryaantizzard Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Will won't leave yet. He's cleverer than that! We let young players go too easily, Tom Huddlestone is a perfect example! I think to keep Hughes for a few more years we need promotion, so lets hope Nigel can get us up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryaantizzard Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 If Zaha's worth £15m, then Hughes is well worth £10m. Will won't score as many goals, but he's a fantastic overall player. I'd have Hughes over Zaha any day! If he was to leave I'd want at least £15m for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
