Marriot Ram99 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 I reckon this could be a good signing, just saw a video of him scoring a hatrick back in January including a goal where he flicks the ball over the defenders head runs through on goal and then scored nicely. He can clearly move and he has technical ability he will be at least a good option off the bench for cheap and you never know he might bang in the goals and become a fan favourite, wouldn't right him off. He might not be great but I'd take him over Zawhore, Wickham or Austin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes it works out for you - I wish we had two short term central midfielders instead of an average Johnson and a fairly useless Butterfield to cover for the injured Hughes and Bryson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Age doesn't matter if its just for a season, Vardy is 33, Ronaldo 35, Ibra coming on 39 if you keep yourself fit and are slim build and athletic (unlike Rooney) then at 34 you can still be a quality player. I reckon he will be alot more athletic than Martin and I mean alot more, question is will his touch and passing be anywhere near as good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramarena Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 He’s going to be back up to Waghorn till Jan is my guess. If he can lead the line when he plays, hold the ball up, get some assists and a goal or two then it’ll be job done! Good luck to him, it’s not ideal but he could surprise us.

If he's on lower wages which I'd think he would be as he won't have as many offers then I'd take him as an option for a season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However something tells me, from his career, clubs and goal scoring records he is not. I think we’ve all seen this a few times, but let’s see.

Johnson was above average his whole time for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She didn't perform that well for me in her brief spell at FC Friends. Starship Troopers was a very impressive performance but not necessarily the kind of rather selfish player I saw, that we need. During Wild Things though her teamwork was amongst the most impressive I've ever seen... . Great pairing up top. So I'm in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheresOnlyWanChope Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Maybe he's on low wages which opens up a Wilson signing tomorrow? Or another striking option January? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
