tomsdubs Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 I just can't agree with this fee if true, he's just Andreas Weimann with better finishing but more questionable attitude. Surely Weimann deserves a chance after the end of last season? I'd rather pay 2m for a hot prospect from the lower leagues. Why the **** did we sign Blackman? What are we playing around at with this recruitment over the last 2 years, it's been shocking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was happy with the link originally but his goalscoring record is not half as good as what I expected so would only want him if he is at most around the 5m mark. If it's a fee creeping towards the 10m mark there is surely better out there for that price such as Jordan Rhodes. If you look at his record, it's a textbook example of a player flourishing in the right system and struggling elsewhere. Which is exactly the reason people seem to want rid of Martin...

They do, problem is the midfield instead of taking a risk, check back and play sideways. The amount of times I've seen runs from Martin, Bent and Ince this season and look frustrated when they don't get noticed beggars belief. The one guy who does try to make a attack gets pilloried and fans want him carted off to Burnley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SouthernRam Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Vydra is the sort of player that would finish the chances we do create - something that seems to have gone missing so far this campaign. Would be a good signing as he is naturally clinical up front. As many have said before, could well pave the way for Bent or Blackman to go?

SaintRam Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Did the DET do a profile on any of the other players we'd had confirmed interest in? (McCormack) Seems odd to be doing full player profiles at this stage, unless it's already pretty far along. But then DET has developed a habit of churning out complete **** recently. "See what Jose Mourinho had to say about Derby" etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are u referring to Vydra or Weiman, lol. Cos Weiman has been played mainly out of position and been vilified for being average at best while trying to accommodate his manager, so he may not have felt able to express hmself or comfortable ? As for Vydra, at Reading 3 goals in 24 league appearances doesn't suggest he's worth what we are reportedly offering,nor that much better than Weiman (and they are similsr) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCFCArmy Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 10m is a no no Why do we keep getting ripped clean off when it comes to fees? I was expecting a 3m fee, similar to what we paid for Weimann, but it seems clubs are now wanting Henry type fees for strikers that can't hit a barn door with a banjo (going of his current form). Pogba is worth 3 Zidanes in todays market...... absolute madness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pogba is worth 3 Zidanes in todays market...... absolute madness. Reading had to pay £2.5 million just to take him on loan, and you thought they'd sell him to us for £3? They valued him at £10 million last season before the market inflated, they are never selling him for much less than that. Yes last season he didn't do well, but he has twice arguably been the best striker in this division banging in the goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Sheriff Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 Reading haven't taken Watford up on the 10m offer. We certainly shouldn't. any more then 5m its daylight robbery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
