Players that have already scored 20 or more goals in a Championship season are never going to come here though are they? 

Probably not.

But as strikers go, he aint that prolific (until this season);

In one of his best goalscoring seasons, he had KP45 playing just behind him in the No.10 role. 

That partnerhsip could re-ignite and it might yield a few goals for us to be fair.

I think the caveat that needs to be added here is that for the majority of those seasons he’s been playing for struggling or lower half clubs where he’s less likely to get chances. Even at Huddersfield when they went up they were fairly defensive. If you like the parallel here is Tammy - plays in a defensive Swansea team in the prem, gets nowt. Plays in a better or more attacking side (albeit not great we did attack when we had him), scores goals.

Does the thought of Wells at 29 overly excite me? Probably not tbh, but I do think he’s better than what we have. If he was 25 and we were in for him I’d be a bit more excited (but we also wouldn’t get him).

I think he’ll score goals. I just have reservations over the age/fee combo when my instinct says he won’t get us over the line this year and then you’re into a “better” market in the summer.

3.5m plus Wells I would do that deal. Recall Morrell and see how it pans out. Don’t think Brownhill was doing an amazing job in a 2 anyway so take our chances with Nagy, Massengo, Smith and Morrell. Also Josh isn’t dominant in the air either so not a massive loss in that regard.

You do realise Morrell is even smaller, don’t you? It’s hardly going to solve our lack of aerial dominance ?

Has he joined us? Pretty happy. Decent signing 

Has he signed ?  Can’t see it anywhere but guess he must have for you to say oops 

Nobody is saying that he’s signed. 
It was you that jumped on some random tweet and declared that he was staying at QPR and we’d missed out..!

No that is what I am saying. Morrell smaller so we lose a bit but saying JB wasn’t a massive help in that regard. Saying worth the risk to get goals imo.
