At the minute Davies is head and shoulders but we’re talking about a fella who played almost 30 times for a team promoted to the prem last season… that’s the only reason it’s undecided yet. Let’s be honest Davies had a few shakey moments last year not least his Wednesday performance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ram59 Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 We're looking for a replacement for Knight, but have we already got one? I'm haven't been Thommo's biggest fan in the past, but he seems to be a different player this season. Today, he was excellent with the energy that we have missed with Knight's departure. He's a different type of player otherwise, with better close control than Knight but doesn't get in the goal scoring positions like Knight, although Knight's goalscoring record from those positions wasn't great.

dcfcjj Posted August 19, 2023 Share Posted August 19, 2023 Think the signing of Tyrese Fornah is absolutely brilliant, everything we need. Adds an extra body into the midfield, 6ft1, championship and league one experience, energetic, can play in several positions in the midfield. Good timing with Birds injury. If it is a loan, his contract expires next summer so a chance if he impresses, could be made permanent. From how it sounds, he will be good for us!

A centre midfielder with legs is exactly what we need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it is for underage players. Friends son (16) has joined the wolves academy. Only declaring that he had an English grandparent did he get the go ahead to stay there full time.

Tompson did really well in the championship for us under Rooney - in league 1 our management decided he was too small to play him I can only assume Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anag Ram Posted August 20, 2023 Share Posted August 20, 2023 I’d consider offers for Collins and Barkhuisen as well as Cashin. We can and should do better than these with a few quid. I think PW is probably looking for a big forward and a quick forward so these two could go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not had chance to listen yet so will have to do so, perhaps a similar creative permanent deal to Washington/Wilson?

Also has a chance of improving with the team to be ready for the championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great shout this. I think his ability in forward positions will develop once he’s settled into the team. I remember he looked hopeless against Plymouth at home last season and I thought he couldn’t cut it in this physical league but give him time to develop and see what he can do.

I don’t think he’s heard whispers mate, I think it’s more of a suggestion because of Fornah is in his last year of his deal. I hope I’m wrong and he does join us permanently because like what a few people have already said on here, a very good signing and at the right age. He was interested in joining Reading permanently after his loan spell so he could be up for joining us full time. It’s going to be an interesting couple of days.
