DCFC Ram Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Anyway, Connor Sammon has been released today so our striking problems are soon to be over! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is exactly why he can’t do that Nugent role, to get something out of Martin he needs to be starting. He isn’t at all suited to an impact sub role (tho neither is Nugent imo). We really need a super sub as a 3rd striker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BramcoteRam84 Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Chris Martin will go down as one of the best (arguably the best) centre forward we’ve had in the past 15-20 years! Class act for this club. But I agree with an earlier poster, if Jack Marriott isn’t starting because he’s not able to do the work frank wants/needs him to do off the ball then Martin has absolutely no hope. It’s not he’s a bad player, just we’ve moved on and he no longer fits our system. His form past two seasons has been crap. But look at his form during loan spells throughout his career, all crap (apart from Fulham where he was half decent). Martin thrives when he has stability (Norwich, Derby look at his record), best thing for both parties is if he can somehow get a permanent move away in the summer. He may have to even consider dropping down to league 1 but if he picks the right club, one that will play to his strengths with a decent shout of a league 1 promotion then he might be the difference for that team, and then don’t rule him out having another 15-20 goal season in the championship before he eventually hangs up his boots.

B4ev6is Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 He could add that steel forwards area and now have waghorn and Marriott if they could be support by chris martin it could work under frank lampard again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnzaRam Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 You can imagine the scene in the boardroom; 'We know Frank, the possibility of the Chelsea must clearly be a great attraction, the chance to manage a top 4 premiership team, compete in Europe at a club where you are nothing short of a god! But we've been thinking Frank, we believe we can offer much much more that here at Derby. We've had team's of top analyst's, crunching the numbers, doing the sums, top men Frank...top men!! And we believe we can make this happen. No topic has had more earnest debate on the fan's forum, albeit usually in the off season...but we believe the voice of the people. Yes Frank! We really can!! ......We are bringing Chris Martin BACK!!! I know Frank, you're lost for words, just take a moment to breath it in ..What do you think Frank?

kash_a_ram_a_ding_dong Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 He will no doubt be first back for training,as he is every year.... Let's see what Frank decides after that. What will be,will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Srg Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Chris Martin to replace Nugent as an over-paid bed blocker in the squad. Or not, because Frank will farm out anywhere he can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramsbottom Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 I reckon we'll release him on a free, best thing all round... There's no way anyone will part with a transfer fee along with the wages he'll ask for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure he’s on a decent wedge, but let’s not get into Tod territory either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd err on the side of caution and say it's easily £20k and up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s not really an impact sub tho, that’s a sub to hold onto what you have. We’d just leave Waghorn on now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
