And why would you be so derogatory towards Reading, who were not as lowly placed, as the team we've just given £12-14 million to for a striker.

jackbauer24 Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 (edited) This was the Championship team of the season for 15/16; GK- Tom Heaton (Burnley) RB - Bruno Saltor (Brighton) CB - Michael Keane (Burnley) CB - Michael Dawson (Hull City) / Daniel Ayala (Middlesbrough) LB - George Friend (Middlesbrough) Mid - Alan Judge (Brentford) Mid - Joey Barton (Burnley) Mid - Barry Bannan (Sheff Wed) Mid - Adam Clayton (Middlesbrough) CF - Andre Gray (Burnley) CF - Ross McCormack (Fulham) So if you take out the players who are now in the Premier League you're left with both the best players left in the Championship and an indication of what that standard is. With that in mind should we be looking at Saltor for the RB position? or Alan Judge in the midfield position? Neither player I know anything about but both areas we need significant improvement in. We've managed to get the striker... Edited August 6, 2016 by jackbauer24 spelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 Judge would have been a class signing last season but he broke his leg back end of last season and was valued about 13million when Burnley came in for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Mantis Posted August 6, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted August 6, 2016 I really wouldn't read much into that comment. If there is a meltdown signing = "I told you" etc. If there isn't = "I was just joking". 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And why would you be so derogatory towards Reading, who were not as lowly placed, as the team we've just given £12-14 million to for a striker. It's a bit different getting a striker who scored 20+ goals in a team who were low placed, than a defender whose team conceded 59 goals. Gunter is a very average player and I'm sure there are better options available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've managed to get the striker... Isn't Saltor old, 33 or so? Don't think he could be relied upon for a whole season providing width. Think he has got slower too. Just wish we hadn't sold Lowton really. Judge is good though imho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel similarly with Morrison - if you caught him at just the right time, that turning point when he realises it's very much time to grow up and make something of his career, it could be very special indeed. The problem being is that it's such a gamble, especially with someone as volatile as him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
