What about bringing back Oscar Estupinan from Metz? Never over impressed but these are desperate times and he could fill a gap.
Every team may have a free kick specialist, I'd expect all of them will have one that can occasionally put a free kick on target. Well, before today all bar one. The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.
To be honest now you mention that it probably was. Chased him last year and never really played in the correct position to benefit him. I am betting Manning gets the best out of him down there though
We've still got two weeks, I think we need to be steady away this window because the players we have coming back are first team starters. We need to replace Delap, no doubt. Cole wouldn't be the worst signing in the world but it has an air of Chris Martin/Danny Graham about it, in that he looks good on paper but I'm not sure he'll hack going up a level. He has a grand total of 1 Championship goal in his career, seems like one of those players who is happy to spend his career in League One. Dunno. I'd be going after Morgan Whittaker at Plymouth, or Lawrence Shankland at Hearts, the lad can't stop scoring at the moment.
Which makes the decision not to try and secure Darlow all the more baffling, but I guess our hands were tied with the wages. I still maintain that Allsopp has cost us about 6 points, maybe even more. Defo 2 at Swansea, 1 Watford, 1 at QPR, and 2 elsewhere.
Only 1 championship game remaining this month so eases the pressure somewhat, just a shame it's a 6 pointer against Sunderland and as it stands we're going into it weaker than we've been all season. Whittaker is being linked to Brentford for big money so that's a non starter.
Let's be honest. If Twine had set the Championship on fire, then we would have stumped up the cash ourselves. He's not been ****e, but he's not shown anywhere near the hype we thought we were getting. The hype is not the players fault but we made a big play about having to fight off other Championship sides to get him. There are other players I'd show the door before Twine (Lokilo, Doch, Sinik, Christie) but in reality we won't particularly miss him in a few weeks time in the form he has shown for us.
We shouldn't have shat over selves and signed a 5th choice target in allsop. We should have stuck with Ingram untill we could get a proper upgrade
The problem with this one is that it will probably go to the last day of the window and then Woy has the option to pull the plug again.
