Sterling brings him up all the time but I like Nahki Wells. Don't know how much Huddersfield would want for him though.
No. Bamford had a good season at Middlesbrough, what's to say he'll repeat that? Campbell hasn't gone on to achieve much since that one decent season. We got Anne Diamond and Akpom with no experience, why should we add a third? Academic anyway as I think he'll hopefully sign for Norwich.
The Beast is doing rather well at Forest Green, big target man, oodles of skill, and will raise the sales of pies around the Kc .................................... by eating them !
8 in 21 for Derby, 17 in 39 for Boro; in the league we are in. No comparison to Campbell, even though a younger, less experienced Campbell took us up. What have Akpom and Diamonds done that is even remotely comparable? It might be academic, but it was you making the point, which wad ...
You don't want a striker who scored 17 goals in the Championship last season, but you fancy a striker who was so poor in the Championship that he was transfer listed after just nine games?
Theres probably at least 12 teams that d take Bamford given the chance. Id take him n send Akpom back
As a back up. Look at his record quick, direct, scored 1 in 3 in the league below the one we currently play in. Other players like Austin have been written off early in their careers - good job they weren't cast aside.
Well, we actually have Diomande and Akpom on our books already. That was my point, they haven't achieved anything. So why add another fledgling that equally hasn't really achieved anything.
Except those goals, for two different clubs, in this league. We would benefit from a similar ratio of return and I think two precedents bode about as well as can be hoped for.
It's not early in his career, he's nearly 26 and was ****e when he got his chance in the Championship, I wouldn't sign him if he was free, wanted no wages and offered to give me a lift to and from every game.
Read the post again. He was younger when he was moved on. You'd miss out on decent players and I'm glad you sell clothes and moderate a forum rather than being involved in football management decisions.
Bit harsh to include Diomande in the 'hasn't accomplished anything' column. He's had roughly the same amount of first team time as Greg Luer has.
Says the bloke who'd take a Championship failure over a Chelsea player who was outstanding in the Championship last season.
