We don't have that kind of money to throw around without outgoings first... You’d think so. Although these loanees wouldn’t have been cheap. Their wages alone will be high, especially with Wilson signing a new deal & reportedly us offering Liverpool the best deal. Didn’t the Posh chairman say Marriott was playing in their friendly this morning? Because he didn’t feature Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because he didn’t feature I don't look at Posh's chairman's twitter anymore, after he trolled us with the January deadline day tweet... I'd love Mariott here mate! But like you say, loans won't have been cheap so that's probably the majority of the Weimann money gone... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind you, at the time I thought the same when the cash was splashed on Charlie George, Roy McFarland,Mark Wright, Shilton, Nish, Stimac, , Gabbiadini, Rioch, Todd, Saunders, Davison, Hector, Gemmill, McMinn and even Eranio on a free transfer were all in my opinion vastly overpriced!!!!! just think what that little lot would be worth now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there really aren't that many championship-level players who can do both and work in a high-press game. Marriott would be settling on someone shorter, but for more impact in the other areas of the game. For me I'd rather just stick with Martin than spend £6.5m on someone who might speculatively be decent - It's a lot of money to spend on a risk - Plus I don't know what he'd give us that Vydra doesn't already? Jerome, Nugent, Martin and Vydra - Not sure I'd be spending £6.5m unless he was the full package - But then I'm not a scout and maybe he is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roboto Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Just pay the money for him so we don't have to watch another video where it freeze frames all the bloody time to show you which player he is (the one with the man bun if you hadn't already figured it out)... He looks tidy on the ball though and I like the fact that he shoots with either foot. A good mix of left and right foot finishes there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reckon that George Thorne beat him to that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tombomb Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 A lot of scrapy goals in that video which championship defences won't give you as easily. I think we would be in danger of overpaying at 6million. Doesn't look great technically, a lot of scuffed shots and bad goalkeeping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GadFly Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 I'm sure it's been covered already, but I'm not gonna read through the whole of this thread to find out... I'm a bit confused, why are people desperate for us to sell the championship golden boot winner from last season, to buy a player unproven in this league? Yes there would be a profit left over at the end... I get that. But would it be bad if we just kept Vydra and didn't sign Marriott? Why wouldn't that be our preference as fans?

Completely agree, we have a proven clinical finisher on our books already in vydra. Much rather keep him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Vydra is a bit of a luxury player, and probably plays in the same position as Mount. Meanwhile, we're crying out for a centre forward. It isn't about Vydra being a bad player, it's about Vydra not necessarily fitting us next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
