Tom Bradshaw at Walsall has started the season like a house on fire, 15 goals in League 1 last season and (sigh) 'only 23'. There'll be a few scouts watching him no doubt.
We should put in a cheeky bid for Rhodes. With zero goals out of 2 games, his value must be plummeting.
It doesn't count as a shout out unless you post a YouTube video. Wiki says he scored 17 last season not 15.
No try looking again. It clearly says 17 league goals, 2 cup goals and 1 other goal for a total of 20 goals in 37 appearances. If you are going to correct, make sure you are right.
Be interesting to see if Huddlestone features tomorrow a couple of papers got West Ham closing in now. Surely we will get our money back if he goes....
Purely depends who we replace him with.. How many goals does Thudd get per season, how many assists? is he the most combative midfielder, does he win many tackles or headers? From what i saw last season, he was well below average and other than losing a bit of weight, there's nothing to say he'll be much better this season. If we get our money back and can bring in a decent replacement, id be happy.
Jela isn't interested and I'm surprised anyone would take him and his glass knees. Imperative that we replace Thudd if we are to lose him - wonder if that's really why we are after Maloney? Oh and Diame is just a week away!
No no jelavic hasn't looked interested and the chances we'll get a decent run of games before he's injured again are high so he's no loss. I'm thudds biggest critic, he was awfull last season and to be honest he was ok against Huddersfield once the game opened up and he got a bit of space but I don't remember him causing Huddersfield many problems. I think he slows us down aswell, so providing we get a decent price for him it'd be a decent move for both parties as long as we buy another midfielder ie Lansbury
Given what he (Jela) has put in so far I suspect you or I could replace him without it being noticed, as for who may replace him TWT
For Tom to go, the release clause must be in excess of what we paid for him. Hopefully £6m+ and with the hefty wages off the books it should free up some funds. SB is exceptional at this level so I'm not overly worried if we lose anyone really.
