http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/transfer-news/Millwall-ready-sign-Jay-Simpson-Hull-striker-for-300k-following-previous-loan-spell-at-Den-article793101.html Thoughts? To me Jay is a winger not an out and out striker?? Seems a strange one unkess Jackett just wants cover for Henry/Bouazza? (sorry if its already been posted)
Steve. Yours says hes on loan the one ive found says perm for £300,000. nothing like some jounalistic continuity!
Exactly mate and a loan spell is more likely for Kenny to have time to have a look at him which is his style.
if we do loan him & kenny says yes afterward hopefully they'll have put in a fixed price in the agreement otherwise it'll another southampton joke
Do we really want Jay Simpson? I'm unsure, he needs to prove his ability after he ditched us for Hull last time. I don't usually turn on players but he annoyed me by turning his back on us after a successful loan and then when things are bad for him he'll then join us.
Alright Adam Understand what you mean but everyone deserves a second chance and if we do get him then see how he gets on.
At least KJ knows him from previous. I think KJ is too cautious in the forward department. He usually gets the defence spot on (excusing the odd error like George Friend) but he's had his fingers burnt a few times up front (McLeod, Theo, Price) and when you listen to him he always thinks defence first. Maybe he needs more confidence and takes a few risks in this area. One thing that I like about KJ is that I've NEVER heard him complain about how difficult it is bringing people to the Den. (Dunno why) But almost all his predecessors used this line on a regular basis. However, we are looking light up front (and have done in the past under KJ) and we are not going top 6 if we stay as we are. also now any player that comes in has not had the benefit of pre-season with us - which seems to mean they are more injury prone. What I am struggling with is the fact that Marquis and McQuoid are not scoring - the positions are there for them to steal...but they don't look that eager. Let's hope Batt gets his head together and gets fully fit - but it feels like clutching at straws.
That's what I thought mate but got my head bitten off by Tiger Beverley they paid 50k with **** loads of silly add-ons. With that ****ing muppet Midlands tiger giving it as well I was almost sorry I posted it on the Hull board but all the other responses were grown up to be fair to the decent ones!
