Albert Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 I think he'll feature a lot, scored a fair amount last season in Australia and has 7 or 8 caps already at 21. They also have Mitroglou (will probably leave), Rodallega (Can't see Prem teams wanting him), Woodrow (got a couple games at the end of last season), Dembele (Got a few games last season), Trotta, David and Ruiz (Will probably leave). Most of them are quite young but they got a chance last season in the Prem so maybe Felix is willing to play them in the ChampBeen watching the A-league for years (I live in Australia) and whilst he scored a few this season, he is a long way from being a good Championship striker at this point. Don't get me wrong, he's developing and given a few good years may well make a good championship striker in a few years, but I can't see it this season, and I can't see him starting any where near first choice for them.Also, whilst he was in the squad for the World Cup, Taggart was an injury replacement for Josh Kennedy. He's a decent enough young player, but his best international appearances came in the East Asian Championship qualifiers a few years against such powerhouse football sides as Chinese Taipei, Hong Kong and North Korea. He was a virtual spectator last night against Spain as well (although, you know, Spain).I have no doubt that he'll make a fine player one day, but they're surely signing him as one for the future, and if they were in the market for a first choice striker (that is, if they were interested in McCormack), then him signing isn't likely to be a signal of a change in mind. Don't get me wrong, I'd be elated if he gets good game time there, but I think that he's some way off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nfb Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 The Guardian seem to say he has pledged his 'immediate future' to weeds...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inter politics Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Well he signed that new contract a few months ago. For some reason, still have a feeling this one isn't quite over with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InigosLeftPeg Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 I'd love him to be a Derby player but I just can't see it. 1.5 on Juke, 3 mil on Thorne and then at least 4 on McCormack taking our total spending to at least 8.5 million and then there's still a RB needed Why buy Juke and McCormack? I'd rather just have one and a solid right back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L1ghterfeul Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Would rather sign this player than donkey Juke though. Oh well. Major difference in price, I personally think Juke is better value for money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Srg Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Major difference in price, I personally think Juke is better value for money Fully agree. McCormack has been Kris Commons at best the majority of his career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
