Spot on, I loved Clarke with us and I hope he smashes it at Ipswich (unless playing us of course)

He gave everything for us and was part of the group of players that got us all excited about our club again

Also shows how far we've come that some wouldn't want him back, we have some unreal talent at the club these days

100% mate wish him nothing but the best, need a fresh link or something to distract us :emoticon-0102-bigsm

But if you had the choice of Clarke and promotion or Mundle developing and missing out you’d take Clarke every day. His returns for us was like 1 every other game, Mundle was 1 in 3 I think before he got injured. Not saying Mundle won’t be a better player but at the minute he’s nowhere near Clarke. I agree with using the money from his sale to fund others coming because Mepham has totally transformed the team but if we can bid for Cannon I reckon there’s still money in the pot and if we could get Clarke back on loan it would mental not to. But there’s no evidence we could or he would. Was just making a point that he would be quality in this team now that have a very tactically sound manager

Clarke would no doubt be class in this team. On the subject of production, Clarke got a goal or assist every 190 mins for us last season. This season, Mundle has got a goal or assist every 186 mins. Difficult to separate the effect of having a better team around them, but Mundle is producing well for us. What he gains from having a better team around him, hey may also lose from not being the only show in town.

The 2 assists didn't include the one he very clearly assisted for Isidor against derby - can watch that back and see how obvious it was. This would make it 7g/a in 1000 mins or 0.63 per 90.

That’s why I think Assists are a bit of a **** metric sometimes. Obviously some are great play and put on a plate for someone but others are a 5 yard pass or a deflected shot going nowhere near the goal. Neil got an assist for making a simple pass to Isidor when he ran 70 yards and put the ball in the net at Hull :emoticon-0102-bigsm

You mean assist of the season?

It’ll be one of riis or Frigan and a lot of people will probably disagree when I say I’d prefer Frigan.

however both would be good additions

Think I might have mentioned before but Riis and Goodrham would be solid pickups at fairly reasonable prices. Would give us 2 decent to good players while keeping a loan slot open for a late prem loan.

The sheff utd transfer debate is an interesting one, I like the signings for them - I think all 3 will do well for them. I actually find it strange that Southampton aren't recalling Charles and using him this season, their season is done so should be focusing on the players that'll help them nxt season and he's one of then

I don't mind what sheff utd have done but I still prefer what we are doing. I see folk making the argument that there fans will be happy if they go up but come straight back down - try telling that to Southampton fans this season, I know a couple season ticket holders and they are hating it

I don't want to just get promoted to the PL to come back down, I want to have a team that could compete when we get there.

Now we might go up this season and then come back down but I think when you have younger players like we do you hope they keep kicking on and that could stand us in a great place when we get back to the PL

Recruitment is so tough as you are always balancing short term success with longer term growth. I actually think Sheff Utd are getting the balance right, even though I don't think many of their players could make the step up

Time will tell who gets it right this yr and fir the seasons to come

Exactly, the thing I find funny is some fans saying if we go up , we'll come straight back down. Then in the next breath claim if we don't go up we'll lose about 6 or 7 players.
The players that are mentioned are being linked to top half premium league sides, so surely if they are good enough for them in the PL they are good enough for us.
The biggest benefit we have is if we go up we have a core of young players capable of playing in the PL we just need 4 top quality established PL players to come is as well as already having LE Fee.
The other 3 teams don't have that, I think all 3 have teams made up of players too good for the championship but not really good enough for the PL

Riis would be a really smart buy. He wouldn't be expensive at all, i'd expect under £2m, due to his contract expiring in the summer. If we get promoted and he can't make the step up we'd probably make a profit.

Ive read that his strengths are movement off the ball and how he hits the ball (POWER!)

maybe Riis’s pieces will solve our puzzle ….. sorry

I'd be quite happy with Riis like, i do like Frigan, I think i'd choose Riis if I had to choose. Can we really see us getting both though?

Can see Riis and Frigan both joining as RLB wants a CF (Riis) and a Versatile attacker (Frigan)

I'll be happy with them both

As much as I think Frigan could play wide, he hasn’t much I don’t think he’d be the versatile guy and wouldn’t see us sign both
