Don't really get the over the top comments about him, there's a good player in there somewhere. If Wednesday can get him anywhere near the level he was at in his first year here they'll have creamed in. Didn't quite work out for him here, I can't help but think the 5 managers he's had in 2 years have done his career any favours. Wish him all the best, hope he kicks on so we can get a decent fee at the end of the season. He just isn't worth the money we paid for him. We've got someone in kieferbeld who will hopefully be a lot sharper. He's also a lot cheaper than the Money we paid for butterfield . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for Butterfield he don't 'fit', if he does well for the Wendies we can hopefully cash in. If you read what I've said I'm agreeing he doesn't fit in with what Rowett is trying to do. Just he's not "incapable of competing at this level" as a previous poster has stated. You don't play over 220 games, none of which were lower than Championship level if you've got something about you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he's being honest about either how poor he is, or how his own Derby teammates are lousy whereas he's got it all going on. Either way it's a clownish comment. Plenty of those types of comments on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I misread what you were saying - was watching Wales & Lawrence - sorry not convinced Butterfield is anything but ordinary. If he's super-duper for Wendies all well and good for them.

He's clearly saying that Wednesday like to get it down and pass it. They're renowned for it under Carvahal. He obviously thinks he'll fit in there. Whereas here, he's been piggy in the middle as the ball flies up the field, under Rowett. I wish him well. I liked him. It might not be en vogue around here, but that's my opinion. I can only hope that GR knows what he's doing. But losing Butters, Bryson, Hughes, Christie and Ince doesn't to me look like the best business we've ever done. But just maybe, he knows what he's doing. I hope so. We have a superb strike-force and defence. If we can find a way of getting it to work, happy days. And it's clear that a lot of what we've done this summer comes down to money. We're obviously cutting our cloth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boycie Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Seems like there's a sell on clause due to Barnsley if money is exchanged and not just a swap deal ultimately. https://www.barnsleyfc.co.uk/news/2017/january/club-statement-barnsley-football-club-agrees-sale-of-sam-winnall-to-sheffield-wednesday/ "The transfer deal agreed between the clubs allows the Club to reinvest in the squad and retain a future financial interest in the player."

jono Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 My Wendies friend was telling me there is almost open revolt at Hilsborough. They aren't scoring goals and are playing Clement style keep the ball at all costs, passing sideways and backwards at every opportunity.

Whilst we have undoubtedly played some nice football in the past few years there remained the perception that we were a soft touch when things got serious. If nothing else, Wisdom, Huddlestone, Davies, Kieftenbeld and Winnall all represent tougher characters than those listed. Can Rowett use this strength and make it a team? That will decide whether it was good business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Igorwasking Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Looks like he likes to hit the corners of the goal - a bit like Kane. Have we got a new penalty taker? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparkle Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Attacking wise I feel we have a heck of a bench to change things if we need or want too, options of Martin Nugent Vydra Winnall Lawrence Russell Wieman combined is a bit tasty - over many seasons I think we have hardly had anyone on the bench to go up front who can make a difference so hopefully that will be changing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially up front. I just worry regards creativity and pace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VulcanRam Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 Thanks @Coconut is there a list of goals scored to go with it? Not trying to prove anything one way or the other, but it will provide a wider picture and would be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
