They’re already under EFL restrictions and their revenues will be well down. It just seems strange to me. Walcott will be excellent at this level. He’s going to have too much for the standard defenders at this level, at the very least he’ll be a flat track bully and punish the worse sides in the league - we saw what McGoldrick was able to do and Walcott is a better player. He still looked decent in the Premier League last season. Tbf, he's only managed to score more than 5 in the league once since 12/13, averaging 1238 minutes of football per season during that period.

He'll average plenty in this one and can play out wide as well. Centrally he'll get 25 goals. Might have a tenner on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomTom92 Posted July 6, 2023 Share Posted July 6, 2023 (edited) Barnsley’s new manager is an interesting choice. Feel like it’s a good move for us but that’s pure ignorance talking. Edited July 6, 2023 by TomTom92 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Averaging around 5 goals in 14 games in the Premier League over the last 3 years means he should be more than capable of having a strong season in league 1 if he stays fit.

ram59 Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 Trafford will be be hard to replace in goal for Bolton, this season. I can't see him being loaned back to a league 1 team. RoyMac5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambitious Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 Trafford and Bradley will be big misses for Bolton, but they have good relationships with the big teams in the North West so will probably get a couple of decent players starting out their journey. For what it’s worth, Trafford was very poor in the game against us at our place. One of the worst passers of a ball I remember seeing from this season. He’s been great for England recently though, still… I’d 100% going for Cooper over Trafford if we’re talking keepers from this level. Cooper was unbelievable last season before his injury. I used some of my online frequent flyer miles to watch Reading and AFC Wimbledon this morning. I wanted to see what shape Reading were in, turns out an appalling one based on that showing. They were truly absolutely terrible. I watched South Shields and Sunderland after and that was a brilliant game. South Shields play excellent football for a non-league side. Sunderland have done really well recruiting from overseas, some of their young lads are brilliant. Luis Semedo, who they picked up from Benfica, is an absolute specimen - if he does well then there will be talk of huge money. I didn’t see enough of him with the ball to make much more of a judgment but he’s a physical freak. RoyMac5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew3000 Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 Crikey, didn't see that coming. Thought Barnsley were wealthy and soundly run. Football is a mess. Anyway, might help us I guess since they are likely rivals for promotion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
