If he could have stayed fit, who knows what might have been. Hope he can get a run of games and get his career back on track.

Yeah, there are the players that have injuries once they've found their level and you miss out on their productivity, and then there are the young players that face a lot of injuries in the definitive period of their development and never quite get seasoned. He feels like the latter. Unforunately I fear he'll never reach his potential having missed so much time when he did.Captain Obvious wrote: ↑Thu Jan 07, 2021 6:29 pmIf he could have stayed fit, who knows what might have been.

Linked to Josh King, out of contract in summer so probably wouldn’t cost too much and a decent player.
I'm the scumbag outlaw. You're the pillar of justice. Neither of us like looking at ourselves in the mirror. Do we have a deal?

Just seen that King hasn’t scored this season so even more chance we’ll be interested

I'll take him. He'll be a better option than any of our current forwards apart from Wilson (who he has that Bournemouth connection with) so building chemistry with him won't take long at all and he can play out wide too if needed rather him than Joelinton. Pacey, comfortable on the ball, skillful and a good finisher on his day judging by his 5 seasons in the Prem he hit double figures in 2 seasons (16-17 scored 16 in 36 & 12 in 35 in 18-19).Bodacious Benny wrote: ↑Thu Jan 07, 2021 8:28 pmLinked to Josh King, out of contract in summer so probably wouldn’t cost too much and a decent player.
I've seen we're being linked to Jones & Willems again.. I wouldn't mind Willems but do we really need another youngster on loan when we already have a young LB in Lewis still learning & developing.. what we need is a solid & experienced LB.. Get Jetro in!


Phil Jones might surprise a few people, he's clearly not good enough for United but at a mid-table/lower-half side like ours might be a useful player as he can cover RB/LB/CB/DM.. even though he wouldn't get into our strongest XI he'll be OK as a squad player.
I see Lingard being linked too.. Out of contract in summer and still only 28. If we can keep him fit & motivated he'll actually be a good player for us.. can cover the wings & no.10 role? Skillful, a good eye for a pass & goal.. issue is as mentioned will he still be the same player he was couple of seasons ago & will he stay fit?
