Warren Hobhead Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 I got the contract length wrong, but I am still confident in my source regards the £5m 'deal/package' with £4m up front. And these videos I really enjoyed... Looks a balllllllleeeerrrrrrrrr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spanish Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Four year contract. Crikey, so if we do eventually reach the promised land in the next year or two, are we to assume he along with Bryson (4year contract last year) and others signed on long term deals will form the backbone for our team in the prem? They'll get murdered. This is always the issue with clubs desperately trying to get promoted - they buy good championship players on extended contracts and then if they do go up are upgraded anyway and are then sat kicking their heels up with the stiffs.Good signing so l'm led to believe but wary that this doesn't automatically mean instant success.I think the 4 year contract is to spread out fpp costs. Guarantee there will be a queue of champ clubs to buy anybody from our successful midfield probably at a profit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abu Derby Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Just read that Butterfield created more chances than any other player last season at 120. This is very impressive and something that Martin, Ince, Russell, Weimann and Bent should thrive on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShepherdOfTheRams Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Yeah, three more than Redmond and they got prompted! Let's hope we can actually finish those chances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1977 Ram Raider Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Dubai or not Dubai? That is the question.Do buy or not do buy? That was the question. We did buy, but was it in Dubai? That is the question.Step away from the bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambitious Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 I've just watched Fulham's game against Huddersfield the other week and come to a few conclusions, based purely on this game. If I was going to compare him to someone, it would be Kris Commons. He doesn't move too much, just drifts around in an advanced midfield position. It's not to say he doesn't put himself about when the ball his in his area, but he's not a runner. Technically, he and McCormack stood out. He's very good with both feet, he's got good vision and will look to create chances as quick as possible. However, I must warn that it comes with some wasteful moments. I do think he would struggle to play in a two man midfield, as he's very much an advanced midfielder. I noticed that he tends to drift on the left side of the pitch more than the right. I also think he would benefit hugely playing in a team that is more often in possession than Huddersfield. I can see why their fans are worried about him leaving, they're not a good side at all. Whitehead is really ponderous. He looks a very sound player, though. As I said, doesn't look too far off from what Commons was like during his time here.

Part of the midfield trio but playing far enough forward to give Martin/Bent support... Good at through balls for runners (whether down the wing OR through the middle for Bent)... AND he can drift out wide when Ince drifts inside... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackNwhites Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 He looks class on the ball in that training video on ramsplayer. Everytime he gets the ball he's calm, when not in possession has plenty of space and always looking to get hold of the ball. Made other players like Ince look clumsy.

Gandalf's shin pads Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 In midfield we needed a creative passer with a bit of vision and good technique, a leader/battler who can add drive and take a game by the scruff of the neck and a shooter. We covered all those bases in two signings. Very happy with both Butterfield and Johnson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rampage Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Butterfield and Johnson are excellent signings. As I am rarely right, I would just like to point out that I said more than once that Mel would spend £20 million.I guess that he must have paid £50-£80 million to buy the Club.What with his investments in the Academy and players, I wonder if he bought the stadium in the sense of paying it off? I would not think so.It represents a massive outlay, so I guess that we should all buy the next levels of Candy Crush. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
