The problem for me is that while he does ok generally he could and should do a lot better. Misses virtually every chance he gets and he gets his fair share. Attacks break down too often when he's on the ball. Clarke, Mundle and Watson have all clearly shown what we're missing on the opposite wing.
That right wing slot is one that I’d be earmarking for a big money upgrade in the summer if we don’t go up. Would like another option to keep PR on his toes but I want us to retain our flexibility if we can.
Agree with this mind, think a lot forgot that period, looked like he could give roberts challenge for position....all went wrong when we forced him up top & missed that big chance blazing over the bar....then we tried him on the left & he was really poor but we kept trying it....he just wasnt a good fit out there & kept saying to those around me, swap him over with robwrts & let him have a go back on the right.....im a disappointed as there us a player there & in part negativity of last season has made it not work here
Maybe OTT with the golden boy comment but the that's about it. He went down pretending to be injured earlier in the season when we conceded a penalty. I am not a fan of all the antics that go on in a match, which includes the stuff Luke does.
I like Cannon, think he would do well here. Club obviously do too. That said, I don't think they will be matching the spending of Sheffield United (rightly so). Package will be a fortune.
We’ve learnt lessons from the past and not paying over the top for players. 13m for a player in this window is crazy. Also paying 50k a week in wages is outrageous for a club in the EFL. it’s a risky game SU are playing as if they don’t go up, they will probs have sell most of them otherwise they’ll get hit again with ffp stuff
Personally I’d be outraged if we paid close to double what they paid for him, for a player they deemed not good enough even in a poor side. Goes against everything the club does well. If we miss out as we as a club say ‘that’s getting silly now’ then I back that stance. If we get him on our terms, and we only pay it if we get a massive influx of cash from promotion, then that flips and it’s really smart from the club. I just don’t see how his value has rocketed by having a steady season, where beneath the numbers almost half are pens. He would absolutely get more chances to score here and I get that argument. I’ve said a few times; we’ve seen played him a few times and I’ve never seen anything that’s really hooked me. Good player yeah, certainly nothing that’s made me wish he was ours.
This ‘championship experience’ people crave seems to come at a premium, can see why shopping abroad appeals to so many clubs now
100% mate. Doubtless a good player with some good growth potential but 13 plus massive wages is madness.
So where do we all think we still need to strengthen? For me I think we should be looking for a left back and right back, Hume and Cirkin haven’t looked the same this year and we are weak behind them.
Wilder and the board at SU are playing Russian Roulette with the club... Put all their chips on these players, with absolutely no guarantee it will work out. More than happy with our recruitment team
You only need to look at what Mepham has brought to see that if we get another 1 or 2 like him, we'll be flying.
Nixon spouting ****e about Isidor now. Claims other clubs want him and the "fee" is a problem for us. Despite it being pre agreed. ****er
