Comrade 86 Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 All through the angst of Covid and admin, I really thought I'd missed folk banging on about how players weren't good enough for the Rams. Turns out, I've not missed it at all ? Ted McMinn Football Genius, Premier ram, angieram and 6 others 1 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm absolutely most excited about what Sibley can do next season, honestly think he has an opportunity to blow up. Stretton is the one that intrigues me the most. I think he could quite easily score 20 goals next season and we can say 'evidence was always there'. I could be wrong, but he's got an excellent goal record at a level that is directly comparable to the one we found ourselves in now. Example: he scored twice in a 3-1 win against West Ham's U23s. West Ham's U23s beat a strong Ipswich side 2-1. Absolutely no reason he can't have similar success with a run in the first team.

Loughborough Ram Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 The thing about Stretton is that he always seems to get chances. So far he has tended to miss, through a mixture of bad luck and snatching at the ball, but his record would suggest that once he over comes that he may become a decent option for us. Maybe, after a season of injuries, another loan would do him good, but if that's the case I'd only loan him out until January, bring him back and let him learn from people like McGoldrick.

Only one player had a better strike rate - Cashin with 1 goal from 2 shots. Minutes per goal he was the best in our squad last season too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black ('n' White) Sheep Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 Can't see CKR being retained at this rate. Collins is allegedly close to coming in. We've got McGoldrick. No need for any more strikers north of 30... A loanee e.g. Jebbison or similar along with Cybulski and Stretton and that should be enough up front.

Millenniumram Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 Excellent news, sounds like this one should get done then. Good to be able to have him permanently too, saves room for loans and means he’ll probably be here for a couple of years. Wsm-ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed , I would like a young star to come in though maybe someone under the age of 20 that has banged in goals in league 2 or national league, someone to excite me that could be the next wanchope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely we can get a hold up merchant who pops a few more in than this guy . Or am i missing something about this one . Yes you are. You seem to be ignoring the fact that, for next season at least, we're playing in League One. At that level his scoring record is decent, a goal every 2.5 games, equivalent to a return of 18 in a full 46 match campaign. Another factor worthy of consideration is his lack of serious injury in physically tough football - last season apart, he averaged 44 league appearances in the previous 5 seasons which for the role he plays is phenomenal. I'd have him in our squad in an instant. DCFC1388, GB SPORTS, RoyMac5 and 1 other 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
