We've singed Jozwiak and Ibe, Whittaker coming into form, Lawrence coming back from injury, there's a lot of healthy competition there (which is good, to an extent). Do we see Whittaker going out on loan perhaps? Or Wilson/Lawrence playing as the 10 If we can’t get a number 9 then he fits. Put Rooney as number 9. Then your got plenty of players that can fill the 3 roles behind him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nottingram Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 I can see this almost as an alternative to a striker, if we haven’t found the one we are after. Waghorn is fine playing centrally, he can link play reasonably well whilst not his strong suit and can score 10-15. Lawrence, Ibe, Jozwiak, Sibley, Wilson, Knight, Whittaker and some I have probably forgotten is an embarrassment of riches on the wings and at 10. I have no idea if we have the cash for it, but being able to rotate in those positions would be great. If Lawrence is having a poor game it suddenly becomes no problem if you have Ibe or Jozwiak on the bench. It’s what we had under Mac 1 and it won us a lot of games Also pretty funny that Forest have been linked with Wilson and Knockaert to play on the right. I thought Lolley was the best in the league there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JfR Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Surprised Forest are interested. Did I miss Wilson changing position to defensive midfielder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rammy03 Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 A sightly pessimistic view is that we won't get him back simply because we won't be willing to pay the fee and other teams will. Cardiff and Swansea have a good chance of getting him especially with him being Welsh. Although, if we do go in for him and he tells Liverpool he wants to go to Derby and nowhere else, he's ours.

MACKWORTHRAM Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 I think that we've had our striker targets. Dursun (Can't get him yet. Durmstadt wanted a replacement before letting him go. They couldn't get one) Austin (Wants to stay at WBA) David (Villa don't look like they're bringing a striker in so at the moment he's their second choice so they aren't letting him go) If we can't get one that suits us or that we want then there's no point in getting one in for the sake of it. Cocu may be thinking about pushing Rooney forward. Having Rooney, Marriott, Waghorn and Duncan as the 4 strikers. Hopefully bring Wilson in to play midfield. We'd only have to see through till January. Because I honestly think we'll sign Dursun then. (If we haven't agreed to already) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jourdan Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 I think this makes sense, because Ibe has played so little football in the past two years, so we can’t rely on him to be a regular starter just yet. He will be eased in and out of games. Wilson can pretty much hit the ground running, as he’ll be coming to a club he knows well. So we could have a three of Jozwiak, Lawrence and Wilson, with Waghorn or Marriott as the central striker. This seems feasible if the Austin/Davis plan has stalled.

Longeatonram2020 Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 Wouldn’t say he’s needed when all our options are fit, but at the same time you’d be daft not to take him if he’s available. Lawrence, Ibe, Jozwiak, Wilson all as options behind the striker and out wide, fantastic! That’s without Rooney, Sibley etc, be some cracking options.

Wolfie20 Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 42 minutes ago, Ambitious said: I can't see this one happening, personally. He will go somewhere, but doubt it will be ourselves. Norwich looks to be the obvious choice for him. I expect Forest to put up the most money. If he goes to Norwich, they might then sell Cantwell to Leeds who then lose interest in Sibley. I'd be happy with that since I would guess Liverpool will either be looking to sell or want a whopping loan fee. Either way, I would rather keep the money and strengthen in the striking area.

JAT Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 I don’t get why people seem to think Cardiff and Swansea have a good chance because Wilson is Welsh. I doubt it has any bearing on his decision. He’ll want to go to a team that allow him to play to his strengths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rammy03 Posted October 13, 2020 Share Posted October 13, 2020 It's also worth mentioning that cocu publicly said at the start of the 19/20 season he tried to get Wilson back on loan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
