AppyDAZE Posted December 9, 2018 Report Share Posted December 9, 2018 Should we, could we? Seems he's well pissed off at Wednesday right now. Looks like exactly the sort of guy we are looking for in midfield. We ALL saw him at AG and liked the look. January is only a few weeks away, LJ, SL et al Over to you... Show some spunk if you're serious about progressing (progress being your words, SL who i love btw) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taz Posted December 9, 2018 Report Share Posted December 9, 2018 He can be a horrible nasty bastard - if theres a chance we could get him then we need to go for it!! Personally dont think we'd ever go for him, as I'm sure that not so long ago it was "rumoured" that he was on something like £30-40k. How close that number is to reality, I have no idea.

Guest Posted December 9, 2018 Report Share Posted December 9, 2018 i just think he must be £6-8m price range, would want £40k a week and surely must be better options for him.. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cidercity1987 Posted December 9, 2018 Report Share Posted December 9, 2018 Just another Pack, doesnt score and doesnt provide the direct assist. Well overrated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would we just be another pay cheque to Bannan? How much desire would there be if things are getting tough in games? We know January markets teams pay over the odds for players, so someone like Herbie on loan till the summer market could be a better option.

Good points, but I really really really reckon we are in need of no more young, for the future players. What we need now is NOUS. A been there done it trait to our team, and I think we will be fine.

Heyy all about opinions Herbie wouldn't be a 'one for the future' as he wouldn't be with us in X amount of years when he's developed. We'd be looking at him thinking can he make the impact now.

AppyDAZE Posted December 9, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2018 Side issue maybe, but I reckon BCFC could well do with a bit of a Scottish icon at the Gate.

However, if we are going to develop anyone, it should be Joe Morrell. He's been with us a long time and I believe he is ready to play his part in our growth as a club. Good engine, not easily dispossessed, always looking for a forward pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we need another though, Walsh out for a while, if Smith doesn't come back on top form straight away then you're looking at Pack, Brownhill and Morrell, need another option even with Smith to allow for rotation in there.

Red Army 75 Posted December 10, 2018 Report Share Posted December 10, 2018 Not sure if BB is a realistic option. But we are definitely crying out for a creative midfielder. Which is easier said than done. Also need KS back fit . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is 895 mins per goal and exactly the same, 895 mins per assist, really that creative..? Hes a decent, busy player, but I don’t think he’s worth what his fee & wages are likely to be.

Bannan would cost a lot of money that can be spent on other areas. We have needed, IMO, a creative midfielder ever since Wade Elliott retired. I consider that we would now be a much stronger contender at the top end of the Championship with what my father always called "a tin opener in midfield", who would also chip in with more goals than our current midfield put together. To sign such a player would cost a lot and we'd have intense competition from many other clubs for him. However, if we signed a Barry Bannan or similar, would we be blocking the pathway for Morrell, Bakinson and others? It's the quandary that will never diminish while we have very good youngsters in our Academy. Damned if we do and damned if we don't! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banman would cost a lot of money that can be spent on other areas. Agree. Have said the same myself. There is a topic here talking about how deep Marlon Pack was on Saturday. Think Walsh playing that “pivot” role would suit him oh so well. People go on about size but height isn’t always necessary. He is not weak and will also get stuck in. Watching Torreira play at Arsenal and Sampdoria I get the similar feeling to Walsh. Shame about the injury but he was well under utilised before that anyway imo.

I'm all for giving our youngsters a chance . We aren't going up and it doesn't look like we're one of the three worst teams in this division so let's see now if Morrell and his contemporaries can step up . Give them game time , ease them in .
