He also hasn't played since last season and is made of glass. By the time he's fit enough to play, our other forwards will be back in the team anyway.

JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 (edited) 8 hours ago, Caerphilly Ram said: There are some options out there according to transfermarkt, whether any of them are feasible in terms of fitness, work permits, willingness to join etc is the bigger question; - Lucas Joao formerly of Reading, only 30 so would be the pup of our forward line if he signed. - Josef Martinez (also 30) formerly of Beckham’s Inter Miami. Venezuelan international, big name in the MLS for a few years and probably way too unrealistic an option for us. - Lys Mousset formerly of Bournemouth and Sheff United, only 27 apparently. Connor Wickham, Dwight Gayle….Lewis Grabban 👀 Realistically I think Warne will go with what he has, rightly or wrongly, but there are some options out there in free agent land. There must be a reason Jaoo still hasn't got a club. Pricing himself out maybe? Edited February 2 by JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure what the situation is with him, transfermarkt has him as a free agent but @sage pointed out last night he signed a deal with a club in China and I can’t see anything saying he left that club so I reckon it’s an error on the website which happens. IF he is a free agent he’d be a good option but can’t see that we’d sign him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black ('n' White) Sheep Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 Rayhaan Tulloch has been released by West Brom... not been given much of a regular run at senior football but was very highly rated as a youth. Could be worth a punt on a deal until the end of the season? RYRAM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomTom92 Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Sheffield Star reckons Joao is a freebie, so he would be my top pick on an initial 6 month deal. Do I think Warne will pursue the free agent option? No MackworthRamIsGod and Jimbo Ram 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dean (hick) Saunders Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 If they can’t be up to speed (match fitness) quick there is little point if they are not in the future prospect category. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he’s available what are we waiting for he’s only 30! Released in January. I'm surprised our Yorkshire scouts have missed Lys Mousset. Hasn't played much since leaving Sheff Utd in 2022 due to an achilles injury, but still only 27. Struggled in the PL, but scored 3 in 7 (320 mins) in the Championship. He would score for fun at this level. McMuffin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Srg Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 Just not sure there’s anyone worth it. 99% are not going to be close to fit, and by the time they are, we should in theory have Washington and Waghorn back. Andrew3000 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StarterForTen Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 I think Warne might consider Barkhuizen a better option than any of the above. My brother is a Stokie and his view on Gayle: “Proper sh1te. Scored three in 50 appearances and two of those goals were when the ball just hit him and went in.” Elwood P Dowd and angieram 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My brother is a Stokie and his view on Gayle: “Proper sh1te. Scored three in 50 appearances and two of those goals were when the ball just hit him and went in.” Talking exclusively to Football League World, former England international, Carlton Palmer, believes Derby County would be the best fit for Gayle as Paul Warne's striker hunt continues. "Former Newcastle United striker Dwight Gayle is a free agent after terminating his Stoke City contract on deadline day. The 34-year-old joined The Potters from Newcastle in the summer of 2022 and struggled to perform having scored just three times in 50 appearances," said Palmer. Not an improvement to our team.

YouRams Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 This whole "they won't be fit" thing is nonsense imo. Do people think footballers are sat in their pants watching netflix until a club comes calling? If they're professional they'll be in shape all year round and potentially training with other clubs anyway. Kathcairns 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely in the case of Dwight Gayle he’d be close to match fit having been part of Stoke’s first team until a few days ago. He’ll have been training daily and been in squads right? Unless he’s been injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nyambe for one slotted straight into the team no problem. Same for Joe Ledley a few years back iirc.
