RYRAM Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 with Martin gone who would you like replace him? or do you think the youth can step up? I for one think we need a replacement but the young lads really do show promise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andicis Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Hector-Ingram, cos I don't believe we're going to buy anyone. I believe he can step up and be a good player at this level Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBRammette Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Sorry but think a year of Martin to show the youngsters his moves (?)would have been the way forward. Wouldnt like to sign a main striker who blocks their path through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost of Clough Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 As things stand we have Waghorn, Marriott, Trialist and Bennett battling for 1 position. Can’t see us signing anyone unless one of those 4 leaves first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black ('n' White) Sheep Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Who would I like to replace him? Sam Lammers on a season long loan. What do I think will happen?

Kernow Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 I think once we sort out the right wing position, Waghorn will primarily be our striker again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sends shivers down my spine. Hopefully Marriott stays fit and remembers where the goal is, because I don’t think Waghorn will ever understand a 1v1 opportunity.

Rammy03 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 If we can get Marriott firing again, I'm happy with what we've got. Waghorn is a good player at this level but not quite clinical enough, if he was, would be 20 goal a season striker no doubt about it. JHI looks a player as well. The wings are the priority to sort out in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcfcreece1601 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 this was more clickbait than det ? I don't think we'll sign any strikers , we will go with Marriott and waggy i think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uttoxram75 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 A fully fit Marriott is a new signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millenniumram Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Personally I think that even if Martin had stayed, signing a new first choice striker would have been a priority this window. Now he’s left, it’s become all the more important. I don’t rate Marriott, and Waghorn is a good player to have off the bench - nothing more imo. Hector-Ingram is obviously a player with potential, but he’s still unproven at first team level. We remain in need of an injection of real quality in that centre forward position - someone as good as prime Martin would be nice! As to who that is... who knows! None of the striker links we’ve had so far excite me, I just hope the recruitment team have someone up their sleeve that we haven’t heard about yet.

Your scraping the barrel there mate If ur chucking in Mason as a striking option to lead our line I still like the lad and want Him to succeed but a goal scorer and centre forward he ain’t Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramit Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 There is no replacing Martin, so we can forget about that. There is no Bentley available on a Skoda budget. What we have is a Covid crisis hitting all clubs and it's not going away anytime soon, so we need to adjust accordingly and thankfully we are in a better position to do just that than many another club. We have, thanks to Mel's foresight, a great academy, which is becoming the backbone of the club and we need to use that strength to our fullest advantage to build a team to rival any other in this division, without setting ourselves into further debt, without signing mediocre past their most decent journeymen. To do that, our style of play must mirror the strengths of our young players. i worry not, for much seed has been sowed and we are ready to reap the harvest, if we see the lay of the land for what it is.

Mid table mediocrity right there, Waghorn scores 1 in 5 chances (at best) we’ll be lucky if Marriott plays 1 in 5 games, Bennett well he’s just poo (although I did read on hear someone say he’s got bags of talent, ffs!!!!). As for the kids, who knows. If this is our firepower this season It’s going to be a long one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
