Yeah he’d be good there, but we need his goals and guile up top. I’m loving BB and Armstrong but there isn’t a truly clinical finisher in the squad unless Dack gets in the box.

Would still like to see a young goal-getter in the Rhian Brewster mould come in on loan once we’ve sorted permanent defenders - gives us the option to move Bradley around to get a grip on games if need be.
 

I saw it as 4-1-2-1-2 too @Richard Oakley, and I started to like it. Before glass back Holtby got injured by a nudge.

Just don’t let him take pens....

I wish bloody Josh King would bugger off and put a few more pennies in the kitty..

Knowing our luck he'll score 2 against us first day of the season then get sold a couple of days after.

According to todays paper Leeds have just signed Robin Koch a 24 yr old German central defender from Freiburg so that could be their interest in Kipre is over.

Just wait till Kaminski sees him in his 6 yard box ?

+ Duffy?

Posting to jolly this along towards 400 pages which will trigger the next signing.

So, back to Brereton ?

[Richard Oakley]

Does this mean we;'re not selling Brereton? All this bigging him as a football player got my hopes up. I could have sworn we signed him as a striker to score goals, not miss open ones. He's even done the two year obligatory video saying how much he loves it here and how he's looking forward to the challenge. It all makes sense now. That mysterious £10m bid was for him, but we've turned it down. Hoffman's misses can never equal Brereton's.?

Surely it was for boy wonder John Buckley. Why else would such a talent not even make the bench for a League Cup game against League 1 opposition?

You could make a nice little video of his misses.

Having said that the two goals he got against Blackpool were good finishes. The second one especially. I liked how he veered out to the right slightly away from goal  to put the tracking defender behind him so he either had to slow down or foul him. At the same time that move drew the keeper over slightly leaving a bigger gap on the keepers right hand side to put the ball into. Clever.

Steady on, Tyrone...not sure misses shoelaces would approve

Wouldn’t be surprised to see us do a deal for scott McKenna at Aberdeen. Cash plus mulgrew with us subsiding a large part of his wages as Aberdeen wouldn’t be able to afford them

If we sign him, then that is any prospect of playing out from the back gone.

I would add to that his initial control of the ball was perfect, put in exactly the right direction and pace to execute as you describe.

Looks like Kipre has made his choice. Presume the deal Mowbray mentioned was not one for Kipre.

Nope pure speculation, I don’t love McKenna but more highly regarded than Lindsay , probably wouldn’t be the worst idea

Wonder if that Whitney guy is still confident that he will sign now?

We were linked with him in january ?

[neophox]

Maybe we can loan Kipre. He won't get a place in the first team for sure. Backup.
