I’d be surprised if this is true. If Warnock likes him then I can imagine he may create more goals for other players than what he does for himself. However in our current squad only Waghorn and Lawrence look capable of double figures so it’d be pointless anyway ? Regardless I’m sure there’s much better options out there.

tomsdubs Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 Thought he just got a big wage increase through promotion? Must be on a crazy wages, can't see it myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Ken, Kenneth. For that reason alone I think we should all be a bit nicer about him, can't be easy introducing yourself as Kenneth, so just think about that.

Boro have a smaller 'budget' than us now they don't get any parachute money. During normal times, their revenue would be about £22m compared to ours which should be about £10m higher. Take gate receipts away and its £16m vs £23m. [The gap will be smaller as our hospitality revenue is significantly higher than theirs] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaltRam Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 If we'd got three or four of Waghorn, Lawrence, Ibe, Jóźwiak or Sibley behind a big, rugged battering ram who could chip in with 10 or a dozen goals, it would work for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need a striker in the Mitrovic mould. Exactly that, not too many of them about for our kind of budget unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The question we need to ask him is how often will he score? How regularly will he put the ball in the onion bag? In summary, What's the frequency Kenneth?

Ramarena Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 Not sure about him and don’t think he offers more than Wags would in the same role. I’d imagine this would be a loan move for whoever takes him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jourdan Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 He spent last season in the Championship with WBA. He played a total of 17 games in all competitions, scoring 4 goals. This was a WBA side with Diangana, Grosicki, Pereira, Krovinovic, Sawyers and Robinson. You would think any striker worth the description would have scored for fun in that team. If that’s not his game, you would think he would have become a regular starter because of his all round play. He has some decent attributes - his pace, strength, size all stand out - but overall how would he improve us? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd back Waghorn to 1 in 2 with that attacking line up, think a lot of Derby fans underappreciate some of the players we already have when looking at potential signings. Team balance is just as important as individual quality to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like him though and always fancy him to score, always gets in the right positions to do so. So with more chances created he’ll miss plenty more, but also score plenty more you’d hope.

Looks like just the sort of option we need up front, big, quick powerful and strong. I watched that and thought: "Christ! He scored loads during the lockdown!" Then I realised it's just that Cardiff don't have any fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rab a dab doo Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 Unless were looking at a loan players like this are: a. Not value for money for the amount the selling club want. b. Beyond our budget. c. Not of the sufficient calibre/known ability to get us to where we want to be. d. They will not hold their transfer value if when/we wish to sell them on. So its a no afraid.
