Billy Sharp will be going to a championship club, but Southampton are reportedly wanting a £800 grand fee I read somewhere. When SoD says he wants a quick forward he means a forward quick
If noone meets the valuation how about playing Top Gun Albert Adomah through the middle and signing another midfielder who can provide the Ammunition with his pace he would be a worry for any opposing defenders plus he would likely win us quite a few penalties and get the opposition quite a few red cards if they tried to stop him in the usual way they do when he is on the wing.
There was a time a few years back when we were going to get jay simpson on loan and everyone got very excited, wonder what went wrong with his career
couldn't score consistently. Could do it at league 1 level but if we are losing Davies we have to replace him with someone who can do it at league 1 level as well as championship. Really think we should try and get nahki wells in. Still at Bradford unbelievably and they have had no bids of my knowledge for him. He will cost a bit but with the money we'll get for Adomah and Davies it should be enough for Wells, Pack and another midfielder
I think Jay Simpson could do a good job in League 1, and if he'd accept low wages I'd definitely look to sign him since he's on a free.
Bradford were quoted as saying that as Nakki Wells has just signed or about to sign a new contract they wouldn't consider anything less than 1.5M for him now how much of this was to fend off potential suitors for him and how much is true difficult to say but thats a large chunk of cash for an unproven talent a bit like that Paddy chap down the road at Yeovil had one great season but before that nothing. Jay Simpson might be an option our manager wants us to play more like Arsenal so having players who spent their young years there seems logical.
