Good finisher, though. Something strange about the El Abd departure. Can't put me finger on it. If we're taking anyone from Swindon in exchange for El-Abd then it should be Kasim.

But I feel we should be going for a bit better than that, not saying every target has to be worth millions, as that's clearly not worked, just maybe a higher level than him.

Esmond Million's Bung Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 Macheda and Ajose both at Manu as youngsters. Part of the problem is the Billy big bollox syndrome that we see with loads of young ex prem kids, that have been spoilt and cosseted, I suppose it's all down to how a manager handles them and tries to remind them that money isn't everything and sooner or later no matter how good they are nobody wants you anymore. in the case of Macheda probably dined far too long on that debut goal, needs to be reminded of that.

Fishponds_Red Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 Now we have FINALLY switched to a sensible formation hopefully the recruitment focus will switch to the key position we actually need to fill - LB. Wouldn't mind Moxey from Bolton or that LB from Preston, he looked pretty useful We could also do with some decent cover/ competition for Pack and Smith, both have been execllent IMO this season but if one or dare I say it both got injured we'd be screwed! Waggy could do a job there short term but IMO we need better options! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aaron-Bcfc Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 19 hours ago, Ashtonwurzel said: Question has to be asked then why has he only managed 43 starts in all of those games ? This smacks of signing a "name" rather than a player better/different than we already have. Much rather see Burns be given a run of games and save on his (probable) hefty wages. Interesting to see how much each minute Macheda has actually managed to be on the pitch has cost his numerous clubs ? Not happy with Macheda cause of a lack of starts yet want Burns to play who has started 2 league games, been a sub in 40. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phileas Fogg Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 Reece Oxford been made available for loan. Cheap wages too. Can play centre half or in midfield. Guess problem is guaranteeing him minutes but would be a good player to have for cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
