roadoftrinity Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I've said previously I'd be disappointed if all we could find was a 31 year old from his previous club. Hopefully we find something over the next couple of days. Isn't the issue with getting someone from abroad that they won't hit the ground running and there will be a settling in period? Say we spend 2 million on Houllhan, had Lambert feels between now and the end of the season he will be the difference at home and get us 6 extra points. That's the 2 million paid back straight away and then next season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be dissapointed if we miss out on him and have no other options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbie09 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 According to SSN Hughton has stated "Wes is a player who we have made clear to that the bid we received is not acceptable and that we are not willing to grant his transfer request" Still think he'll join if we stump up enough.

jacketspuds Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Yeah think it's a matter of when now, as opposed to if. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jasoncb Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Signing him will be a positive for us (mainly to help reduce the hoof ball) but anything over 2 million is a waste of money that could be put towards a better signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that depends on how much will be available in the Summer, which is something we aren't sure of yet. Either way I'd rather we sign Hoolahan than nobody at all to bring some creativity further up the pitch, Lambert will already know his strengths and weaknesses so hopefully he'd be able to do a job for us.
