BCFC Grim Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 To be fair that was a good few months ago, things can change very quickly. As for him, not overly excited. Can't remember Preston fans raving about him too much last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chipdawg Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 Looking at Wikipedia he seemed to score 5 in 11 during his first spell at Preston, was recalled by Villa then went back at the end of January and only scores 2 in 17. Seems to me he could be used up front or as back up for Freeman, very happy if this guy signs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrahamC Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 Messi wasn't available, don't get pleasing some people, young lad, loads of potential in a position we need!! Too true. Not sure what some people expect, we've just picked up a very promising youngster from one of the biggest clubs in the country. Wilbraham will be 36 this year, Kodjia will need help in settling, having this lad in our squad can only be good news all round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

semblar Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 In 'My Opinion' it will NOT be any of these players being announced as signings today...... So are you saying there's more than CR to come...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bard Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 Interesting that SC talks about him being able to play left in a front 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phileas Fogg Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 Another one I know very little about! Is he more a striker or attacking mid? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carey 6 Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 Paul Anderson is signing for Bradford. Only 27, would have had him back. Callum Robinson on loan from Villa is another I'd like to see here. See Harry mentioning Hakeeb Adelakun, although he was quiet against us, he reminds me of Adomah with his pace and power. Wouldn't be against signing him either. If you're listening Keith, I'd also like to see Maguire & Lingard sign for us. Thanks. Am I now ITK?

chipdawg Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 He was on the bench for second spell mate. Couldn't get in ahead of Garner and Beckford. Fair enough, I guess that's still a bit of a concern but I thought he really stood out when Preston beat us at The Gate last year so I'm happy with this- especially as Sherwood was talking him up last year I reckon that's the forward line complete, just need a couple in midfield and a defender or two and we're ship-shape. What a difference a week makes, eh?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Rizzle Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 Interesting that SC talks about him being able to play left in a front 3. Got to be flexible throughout the season but still fully think we'll predominantly be playing 3-5-2. The signing of RF and all the talk of wing-backs and fitting in with our successful system from last season confirmed that for me yesterday.

Phileas Fogg Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 Interesting that SC talks about him being able to play left in a front 3. I noted that, maybe he's looking at that as an option if 532 isn't working. Agard - Kodjia - Robinson ? I know Agard scored a lot there for Rotherham.

B-Rizzle Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 So, we just need a Goalkeeper, Centre-Half and Central Midfielder now (minimum). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chipdawg Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 Interesting that SC talks about him being able to play left in a front 3. We might go 3-4-3, with Robinson cutting in from the left and Freeman from the right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cummins17 Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 So, we just need a Goalkeeper, Centre-Half and Central Midfielder now (minimum). Add another left back to the list and I would say that is business well done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phileas Fogg Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 So, we just need a Goalkeeper, Centre-Half and Central Midfielder now (minimum). Agree, maybe a left sided centre half who can play lwb but they're hard to find! Maybe another lb/lwb to add. I'd like us to bring in another targetman to compete with Wilbs really too.

chipdawg Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 It's an option. But I'd expect it's almost a certainty that we'll start the season playing 3-5-2. I meant as an alternate formation, with 2 attacking mid players behind a striker when we're playing some of the bigger teams. I absolutely agree we'll be 3-5-2 tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCFC Grim Posted August 7, 2015 Report Share Posted August 7, 2015 Must take a lot to excite you then!! Have a look at the Preston forum. Then you'll see why. I'm not knocking the signing or the player. But I'm not going to get very excited over a player who spend most of 2015 on the bench for a League One team. I am happy to have added another to the ranks however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
