Ted McMinn Football Genius Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 WOW didn’t expect that, let’s see what happens then. I doubt anyone would have called that one TBF to AN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northantsram Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Bit of a strange move really .. he had a good season last year but before that hadn't really done anything. He's a pacy CAM/Striker. Would only be good if we are getting substantially more for Vydra than what we spend on Reid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MackworthRamIsGod Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Did Bobby Reid play alongside Abraham at Bristol City? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnero Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Sell Vydra and spend most of the money on Reid? Nah, can't see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sage Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 He only has 1 year left on his contract so they will never get 8m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QuitYourJibbaJivin Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Have to say that’s oretty uninspiring. He said there was 2 players linked with Derby in the paper and I actually got a bit excited. He had a decent season last year but It’s probably a flash in the pan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topram Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 When he said we had one lined up I was hoping he meant about to sign not lined up for Vydras replacement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has only had 1 good season id be disappointed if we paid any more than 7m for him tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCFC1388 Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Not sure on the price but had a similar season to Vydra but from what I have seen he has a much better work ethic which is maybe what Lampard & Morris want. Cant see it being 8m with 1 year left, if we got over 12m for Vydra and used the money on Reid & Marriott I think I would be happy with that.

nogbad van 50 Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Lampard back from World Cup duties tomorrow so we can expect some transfer movement at last.I can’t be the only one who’s had enough of the silly links to certain players and also the sillier arguments over hypothetical signings or transfer fees.Come on Frank ,it’s time for action!

Millenniumram Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Bizzare one this, but I think it could be a positive. We’ll be losing a lot of goals in vydra, and this lad can certainly put in a few. Used to be a midfielder as well so I wonder if he could be played in the old Bryson role? Goal scoring midfielders are certainly something we lack. If we are able to spend 8 million of the incoming Vydra money as well, hopefully that means we’re getting far more than that for him. Only real question here is the price, at 1 year left 8 mil is a lot, but they might get it if there’s that much competition. Woild prove a risk.

This makes sense. Pair him with Tammy Abraham and we'd have a pacy and very dangerous front 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rammieib Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 Why sell guaranteed goals when you need to spend roughly the same to replace it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Scarlet Pimpernel Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 So if this is true quite a few of you have decided you already know more than our new manager...……….? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnigmaRam Posted June 24, 2018 Share Posted June 24, 2018 If we were going 433 this would make sense. Better overall work rate. Has played in midfield but moved further forward last season proving he can score goals. its a better fit for that formation than Vydra is. Like someone said the new Bryson role. if you could pocket £4+ mil on top it t might be good business. Or it could be a disastrous flop.

Payment due dates, end of life residual life sales, etc never as straightforward. Getting 10-12m for Vyds won't actually mean we have 10-12m to spend if FFP is a serious threat. I'm not convinced it is though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
