We were linked with him in Jan and Rooney had wanted to get him. This will be a sign of we can expect during the window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was chatting to a mate the other day, we were talking about the 3 amigo days and just how badly we were financially. But then we remembered we managed to sign players like Idiakez, Raziak, Reich, Bisgaard, Tommy Smith etc. Even in those dark days we managed to sign some good players and very nearly made it.

GangwayD Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 I wouldn’t be adverse to signing Pritchard. I remember him being outstanding for Brentford at PP especially going forward, although didn’t work back particularly well but sure that was their system at the time. Cheers Gangway D from the terrace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkle Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 He was very good at Brentford ( like many) but when he went to Norwich and Huddersfield town they simply couldn’t wait to get rid of him and his high wages so maybe his best days are well gone ( a bit like Ince possibly) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jubbs Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Meh, I'd prefer to get players that are regularly fit. He's only played the equivalent of 40 league games in the past 3 seasons for Huddersfield (33% of league games). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rample Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Pritchard excels as a winger but has barely played there since Norwich, get him back out wide and I think there's still a player in there. My biggest issues are left wing isn't a key area to strengthen unless we sell Tom and Joz, he didn't seem interested in coming in January and he's probably on the type of wages we're trying to get rid of.

Ambitious Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Until we know the situation with the owner, I can't imagine any player that wants a real wage, i.e. Pritchard, would be a realistic target. I believe he turned us down in January due to the uncertainty around the club and since then it's only accelerated to a much more outrageous level.

JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 He'd be a useful player but I can't for the life of me think why any player would want to join us at the minute if there are far more sensible clubs also interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anag Ram Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 3 goals in 80 games, he should fit in nicely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jase116 Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 He used to be a good player, always rated him, but hasn’t done a lot recently, depends if he has the hunger still, one thing that bothers me, where would he play? I presume attacking midfield, which is Lawrence’s best position and Sibley’s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More to do with scouting than ownership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jram Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Probably a no.. in my head he’s really good because I’ve seen him score once or twice but he’s clearly not given his apps and the fact Huddersfield are letting him go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
