Could see warne going for him as the midfield option I think Bird would have to be moved on for that to happen, but would obviously take him in a heartbeat. He was a class above when he played against us for Accrington Stanley, very obvious from that day he was a player! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not beyond the realms of possibility but i agree its unlikely. Warne also strikes me as the sort of man that wouldn't want to hold back one of 'his players' by dragging them back in to League 1.

DCFC1388 Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 We need a proven goalscorer to add to Washington & Collins. Ladapo, Joao, JCH & Assombalonga are all very good options for this level....i also think Sharp, Godden & Martin would all score plenty of goals at this level too.

I agree with the suggestions but as has been suggested to myself and others I think even with the knight money we aren’t particularly free to spend. I’d imagine the absolute most we’d spend would be £750k maybe £1m and that would not get you JCH, Langstaff but would probably get you a free agent, Ladapo or godden. Realistically though I think we’ll end up with a free agent or a fee paying loan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not about that for warne it’s about whether the player can play the system and if they’ve got what it takes to play for him could you seriously see Martin or assombalonga or jch chasing around centre half’s for 90 mins ?

No I cant, but Warne has also said he wants different type of forwards to use, we already have 2 on the books who can do alot of running, we need other style of players, McGoldrick wasnt someone who could press alot. JCH, Martin & Assombalonga are capable of replacing McGoldrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still think we need 2 more strikers as if this other striker gets injured then we would rely heavily on Washington and Collins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading had been under a transfer embargo since the summer of 2021. This was lifted last Wednesday when they paid in full the outstanding debt owed to HMRC, which was the reason the embargo was imposed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
