DCFCArmy Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 I think Pearson prefers Bent to Martin, but Bent misses so many bloody chances its unreal, he gets caught offside a lot too. Maybe a younger Bent type is what he wants, with Yedlin linked as well we might see the system NP is trying to play work better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomsdubs Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 What we're missing upfront is agility and acceleration. Bent has reasonable top speed but his turning and acceleration are poor. I get the feeling we've asked about these other strikers and been put off by the crazy prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jono Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 I am really up about this. He's quick. He has scored goals at the top level, he has been well coached. Maybe not the finished item and maybe not perfect for the championship but as a loan I reckon it's pretty damned good. Hope he starts on Tuesday so we can really see what he's got.

I am a Bent fan .. He gets in positions, knows where the goal is and can finish but now he is missing the 0-10mph thing .. The electric burst in the first yard that youth brings. Chris Martin doesn't have it either, no matter how wiley he is; so as a speed merchant we have Tom Ince and he is really more creator than predator and Johnny who is great but doesn't have the consistency and finesse of touch, often enough, to be a real killer.

And its great we're using the loan market again, we picked up some right good loan signings during that 2014 playoff season (Wisdom Bamford Thorne) and should have done what we could to get Wisdom in permanently with Thorne imo. I'm glad we're not being taken for idiots with over inflated prices, Foresteri for 10m+ is just beyond stupid imo, when we could pick a Bamford type for 3m or bring in a loan like we have done here.

I personally think Lingard wasn't all that motivated by Championship football and the top flight inspired him a lot more. Can't say for sure though obviously, just a theory. Can't possibly know what a young player is thinking in the vital stages of their development and how the pressure can make them struggle. Certainly relevant in relation to what you say about Wilson seeming to be knackered all the time and seeming to go missing. Good signing. Forget his previous stats I think, he's clearly got talent. Totally agree with that, can I add you know what I found reassuring last night, was on the F.L show(or whatever they call it these days), there was a pro as pundit telling us, he offers something different to Martin and Bent, singing his potential and in so many words saying maybe the move will do him and us good - rather listen to someone who might of played against him.

I doubt we could afford Remy nor would he want to pay in the Championship. Callum Wilson is Bournemouth's #1 striker. Grabban could be more likely? Darwin Quentaro appears to be a 1 in 4 striker who is untested in our league, this would be a massive gamble and we can probably do better - im happy to admit i know nothing about this player though. The Rhodes rumour that has emerged today is very interesting, i agree that he would be an excellent signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
