needles Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 I can't see him coming here but if we got two out in that area I'd have no qualms signing him. Strong, mobile, gets a goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rample Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Not in the squad today, in Hull for talks as they've met his release clause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DcFc Dyycheee Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 £1.2m is a bargain for Hull. Good signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With almost no technique and also a weak passer of the ball. He's better of to Dull City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sexydadbod Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 If that fee is true then I'm disappointed we didn't try to get him. He's young enough to improve and can play any position in the centre of midfield. I'd say he is better than Bryson and Butterfield and just as good as Johnson at the moment. He was brilliant against Chile for Australia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is he going to play though? If we're carrying on with 4231, there's no point playing him in the 2, as you're just wasting his natural instincts to get forward. And to play in the middle of the 3, you need a player with a bit of guile, not a box-to-box runner. And if we're changing back to 433, it will need a major rethink with how Rowett is setting his teams up, we sit far too deep to effectively support a lone striker, even with someone like Irvine in the team.

It's exactly what we don't want and what we don't need in our midfield. Our squad is bloated with the midfielders who just doesn't know what to do with the ball. So called energetic runners. They should better go and run marathon instead of playing football. Some creativity and in-game flair are needed, a hard tackling and the mobility are also more than welcome.

I hear what your saying and agree But Today we were beaten by a side which contained two of our old boys both playing different roles to what was asked of them when here .... when they even played in freemans case sometimes a good manager can see something in a player for a specific role and get it out of him im not disagreeing with u just saying tis all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
