At this time, with covid and no fans allowed in, we will be looking at loans or free transfers.... if we get tammy mark 2 then fine, but i dont see us attracting anyone better.

It’s not just the striking side of Fam, his defensive work is too notch. Would be a huge loss at both ends of the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but with Deano's all out attack, fan-friendly, passionate, "I'm from Salford", "remember when we beat Boro?" football we'll be 5-0 by the time we have to defend a corner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Padlad Posted August 11, 2020 Report Share Posted August 11, 2020 Why are ppl not concerned at losing last year's player of the season? Ppl were also pretty unconcerned by Josh brownhill leaving and look how we fell apart after that. We will need players with heart next season.

No, no no that can't be true as when all the kids were throwing their rattles and dummies out their prams they made it clear to everyone that with dean in charge we wouldn't attract anyone!

Bris Red Posted August 11, 2020 Report Share Posted August 11, 2020 What sort of fee would we expect for him in this current market? You’d hope we could at least get between £7-9 mill.. not sure if that is being a bit ambitious though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankly I'd hope we'd just get the rumoured full fee (£5.3m) back at least, anything over that is a bonus.

So your not going to include the 5-10 goals a season he probably stops the opposition scoring with his defensive work. Good luck next year with getting Wells to help out our leaky defence. People should be careful what they wish for. Fammy is one of the most important members of our squad imo, bear in mind you have to take Elliassons assists away from the team as well, we will be giving up an awful load of goals, assists and defensive work with just those 2 alone gone.

Good luck next year with getting Wells to help out our leaky defence. People should be careful what they wish for. I hope our defensive system for set pieces is improved under Holden. Famara does a great job in that near post area, but if we are playing 3 CBs that ought to give us one more defensive aerial ball winner. We will need someone to play that role and attack the near post ball. But it’s coachable.

If I only had to lose one of the two, it would be Eliasson (rather than Famara) every day of the week....even more so with Holden likely to play 352.

DT The Optimist Posted August 11, 2020 Report Share Posted August 11, 2020 I have always been consistent in my views of Fam. An ok player who the fans love because he beats the badge and gives 110%. Decent defending, but in my life time of supporting City I have seen many strikers who simply are two gears better than Fam. For that reason if we make a profit on him , or lose him for nowt in a years time, then best go now & good luck all the best for the future. The key is he has to be replaced and an upgrade if that happens. Fancy it will these odd times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyTonyTony Posted August 11, 2020 Report Share Posted August 11, 2020 I want FAM to stay. Last thing we need now is a painful search for a striker. 15 goals a season plus Nakhi firing - what’s not to like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get what your saying but remember that Holden was present for whatever set piece system we had in place last year. I know people will say that it was LJ decisions but IMO an assistant manager not strong enough to let his manager know that things are wrong and could be done differently won't translate well into the manager's role himself. If as was said that he could see what was wrong last year he should have stepped up. If he did and was ignored then perhaps someone who had the courage of his own convictions should have walked away. I know I would feel pretty useless if I understood my ideas were never going to be good enough to come to fruition. I really want to be wrong but I don't see DH having a magic playbook that will eradicate the problem's of last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with all you say....and I saw little change in defensive set piece set up under him. We don’t keep men on posts, and we do allow defenders to be blocked. It is one thing I’ll be watching closely. Let’s hope it’s something they work on over pre-season and it negates the need for Famara. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
