Mafiabob Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I just class them both under the 'awful' category in terms of end product. There's no way I would class wards end product with sammons end product in the same breath! Admittedly Wardy has looked good in a below average side.... But he is streets ahead of Sammon.

Daz_The_Ram Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Ward affects more games decisively if you ask me ... yes, Sammon will run all day for you, and do so enthusiastically.. But then - so will a dog on a treadmill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rammieib Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Chris Martin is a brilliant striker in this league - in the Premiership I think he would struggle in my opinion. That's why he's worth a lot to us but you won't see many Prem sides coming in hunting for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEBA Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I'm not so sure he would struggle all that much in the premier league, as long as our playing style was the same, he performs the exact job that Giroud does for Arsenal and he seems to do alright for himself.

Thierry Ennui Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 We've hit the jackpot with him. Suits us: - Scores loads of goals - Acts as a pivot for play to revolve around (excellent control and passing) - Adds an nasty edge to the side which only Jamie Ward does otherwise Won't attract bids: - Slow - Looks fat - Looks generic and forgettable, like the default created character in a videogame - Shares name with unfashionable singer - Reputation as a troublemaker - Actually is a bit fat All this means we can potentially keep him at a reasonable wage even if he maintains his level. Hurrah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gypsy Ram Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Any idea what his calorie intake per day is? How can you be a modern day footballer and still be fat with all the training and games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Kevin Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 All good sides have a couple of tough players ,the sort that if you had to go in a phone box and only one of you comes out you would give it a miss. Chris Martin is one of those also Bucko, you need them for that as much as their playing ability . Stevie Howard was another good example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daz_The_Ram Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Stevie Howard was another good example. Try Mick Harford. I must say I was surprised initiallly by Martin's ability to mix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambitious Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 In our system, he's perfect. In another, I can't imagine him doing so well. I don't think there is technically a better striker in the Championship. His first touch could drive the knickers off a nun. He also suits our forward runners style. Would he suit the Premier League, in our team unquestionably, would he suit it if he was playing aside of someone to win 'knock downs' - no. He's the best 'number 9' in the division, technically. Rhodes, the best finisher. McCormack, the best number 10 (or at least was last season) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Kevin Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Try Mick Harford. I must say I was surprised initiallly by Martin's ability to mix it. Mick Harford is probably one of the best examples ,mind you we have had a few over the years Rioch ,Newton and of course Dave Mac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you're feeding off Sammon's link play you're going to struggle to make an impact... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bridgford Ram Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 It's weird he fits into Stevie Mac's system so well when you consider he inherited him from Clough. Do you think McClaren picked the style from the players available or just got lucky with Martin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
