I’d be absolutely fine with him as a 4th choice option, but with Washington yet to feature in a friendly, he’d be our 2nd choice going into the start of the season. To say we needed another good striking option even before we lost Mcgoldrick, it’s really not looking all that promising going into this season. Obviously there’s still a few weeks left to bring players in, but it’s unlikely to be anyone of any real top quality is it? Yeah feels like we got the defence and wing back positions broadly sorted and since then it's all gone very flat and the names pretty uninspiring. It's been a transfer window of two halves...

I did hear that he knew Waghorn was without a club and still lived in the area so offered him use of our training facilities without any strings attached.... Why not do that earlier on in pre season though? He’s been a free agent all this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was quietly hopeful we might have had a bit of money to sign someone younger. Completely understand why Warne has prioritised the defence but seems odd we've sold Knight (and Bielik for that matter) but are scratching around for older, out-of-contract forwards Edited July 27, 2023 by vonwright Jimbo Ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you listened to Warnes interview? It's on a thread on the main forum. Would be easier if you had rather than answer piecemeal questions in isolation.

FKANorwichExile Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 Similar vibe to Washington. I'm fine with him coming in, he strengthens the squad, known quantity, great for player morale in the dressing room... Just, please, for the love of Stimac, NOT as our marquee signing. 4th choice is fine, but we really need someone with pace yo get excited about.

Does seem a bit chaotic and disorganised if we end up signing someone cos they turned up to play a testimonial for their mate and were the best option available to us. Like others have said though we could do a lot worse as 4th choice. Edited July 27, 2023 by Blondest Goat . OoooMarkWright and SKRam 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More on what's available. Our recruitment so far has been very good. It sounds to me like he's a last resort if we can't get anything over the line. I think Huddersfield/Rhodes is similar to the Collins/Cardiff situation. The player needs paying up if they the club wants them out. If they don't offer the player something acceptable then that player can't go anywhere. If we don't manage to sign someone permanently. Then I would hope we'd bring Waghorn in and a young striker on loan. Potentially a Stansfield/Coburn type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

norwichram Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 If you had told me three weeks ago that Waggy was an option I wouldn’t have believed you. The first 7 signings all made sense, brought quality to the squad and created a buzz in the fan base. then we sold Bielik and Knight alongside this for decent money so hopes were high Fast forward three weeks and I’m hoping Waggy does sign and do you know what - I’d like Dobbin back too!! If Waggy was a cheap option and Thomson/Kane could fill in at left wb .. would love another maybe even Rhodes as an option off the bench in a tight game or a loanee. these plus sibs/barks and NML should see us do well i think we will have more time in the attacking third with the defence and smith in midfield to nullify more attacks than last year and with bird more advanced just pray we get two forwards in soon before I have to start adding to the twitching thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
