Same sort of player so perhaps z will have a better mentor who’s offside less and who actually batters defenders like he does. I approve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LB_DCFC Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 'Reading and Martin very live'-nixon best move out of all of them for me. Not going for promotion, could take points off rivals, and have some money to spend, so I suspect most of the wages will be paid for. Wish him all the best, was excellent for us but isn't close to starting at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was discussing Martin and where he could/should go a few weeks back and I settled on Reading due to the fact they can't hurt us this season, they have a style of play Martin likes and Kermogant is getting on. Then low and behold, up pops the link. I should be an agent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gee SCREAMER !! Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Not sure why Derby want him but our own Chris Martin is in a similar position. He has only scored one league goal all season. How about we swap him for Jerome? See Leeds are after Chris Martin on loan. I’d welcome him back Derby haven't been in the Prem recently though, so I can't imagine Martin's wages would be any higher than Jerome's? If we sell Jerome and bring in Martin on loan until the end of the season, we have a proven goalscorer who already knows the club, and also give Webber and Farke six months to identify a replacement at non-panic-buy prices. I'd love to see Martin back here on loan. I love CamJam, his attitude and workrate are unsurpassed, but Martin is undoubtedly a more clinical finisher, and all those old accusations of him being 'lazy' have surely been dispelled during his time at Derby and Fulham. Doubt it'll happen, but I'd love it if it did. Is there anything in this Chris Martin rumour or is it just 2+2? Would be more than happy to have Martin back. Good player Why would anyone want martin. No pace and cannot play one up front seems there are opinions the Norwich pink un similar to what im thinking - on the whole they would be delighted to have Martin back and seem to rate Jerome on nostalgia only.. seems he's served his use there . the much vaunted player plus cash can remember at least one myself ormondroyd and gee plus cash to Leicester for kitson...

Last season it was Butterfield, my guess is Forsyth or Russell. Very easy to say that Rynny but the only two consistently poor players I know of at DCFC are Butterfield and Martin - and Rowett has already figured that out and acted - so for my part I’m all good that these two are no longer impeding our dynamic progress.

Actually I think Rowett is very happy with Martin in his current role, especially the whole 'different options' philosophy. The problem is he's on very high wages and wants regular first team football. Rowett obviously rates him, he just prefers Nugent and Winnall more as they suit his system a lot more. Only a fool wouldn't rate Martin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I player doesn’t fit the proven system and wants regular football, even if you rate them you move them on. You don’t want unhappy players around the club when pushing for promotion. You also don’t want their value to keep depreciating. Get them out, hope they perform (against our competition) and maintain or increase their value.

He went through a run of games where he was running on empty, although it wasn’t ideal at the time in the long term it has done, and will do him the world of good. Along with the rest of the defence, as they got through it relatively unscathed. There’s calling it how you see it and there’s singling out one player being the difference between a defeat and a draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay then I rate him too - good flicker good hold up good diff option - but like GR I believe he doesn’t fit in our system of winning football so let’s shift him ... feel better?

So Waghorn takes a left footed in swinging corner their defender scores and its Forsythe's fault how does that work They did exactly the same at Portman Rd was that his fault too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
