matty1986 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Always been a good player. Really excited to see what he can do. Finally, we can look forwards rather than carping endlessly about past loves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longeatonram2020 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Could well end up being what Kuqi was for Cywka Bueno and Commons under Clough. Didn’t score many but made the 3 behind flourish, we certainly have solid options behind the striker, just need the focal point. That could be Waghorn, CZR is just another option as Marriott is never going to be the player for that role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BathRam72 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 3 hours ago, Tyler Durden said: I know your comment was said tongue in cheek but theres a lot of difference with some of the posters commenting on his signing as a criticism of the player by proxy when it's actually directed at the club for having months to sort out replacing our main striker and having to land on him right at the final knockings which smacks of sheer desperation. Of course deals are always easy to get over the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerbyRam! Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Yes - he's not a £20m striker. But of the options available to us, he doesnt look bad. Didn't look at his stats previously yet, but he talks and holds himself well in the interview, states his game is physical he's 6ft 1 and didn't look too bad in the very short training clips. Don't write him off yet, he could he exactly what we need, Marriott (as much as I want him to do well) clearly isn't on his best partially due to the role Cocu wants him to play. I think Colin could he an excellent fit without much risk. 1 year contract to the club and signed on a free. We could do much much worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin didn’t want to stay if he did and it meant lower revenue he would possibly still be with us, so we move on and support who ever comes in.

Derbyram1983 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 It’s not championship manager?. If cocu could sign anyone he wanted do you think he would have signed Kazim-Richards? Obviously finances are playing a part now. We’ve signed ibe and jozwiak who are going to be good players at this level. Belik is almost like a new signing and with Lawrence and waggy to come back I think we’ll be a decent team. Give us a few weeks for players to get back for and sharper and then I think we will be able to judge cocu better. Finances are tight. I reckon if we’re up near the top six by January then we might push the boat out for a good striker depending on outgoings. Personally think we’re going to struggle this season but I’m still looking forward to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rab a dab doo Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 We need to firstly be able to pick from 'all' our fit first team squad and secondly they need to play a few games playing together in Cocu's chosen formation. Only, then can we pass a truly in-formed judgement on this team is going and its possible true potential. Early days yet, boys. Keep the the faith. Were neither relegated nor promoted in October.

thekingofbuxton Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 I just can't work this out. If we had scraped the barrel harder we probably wouldn't have found much worse. I don't think he's particularly fast I don't think he's ever been a target man, he's not particularity tall or noted for his strength. His goalscoring record has always been awful I can only presume he will be backup for Waghorn, and I hope he's on significantly less money than Marriott otherwise letting him go again makes no sense. This inspires me about as much as signing Jon Macken in 2007. I'd much rather play the academy players than this guy. Ridiculous signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warwick Ram Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 According to Wikipedia he only got past double figures for goals in one season where he scored 11 whilst on loan at Feyenoord in 2014 / 2015. In total he has played 388 and scored 57 goals. That is a goal every seven games. That is an awful record for a forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
