DJBOB Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 I think he's in the best set up he can get. Sheffield primarily play with a two up top which will benefit him to take the load off the hold up play and Sheffield need someone that can score a goal off limited chances. Still expect 10+ goals but lots of games where he's anonymous. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 How is archer doing? After seeing his debut where he was amazing i watched a gme or two and wasnt really great. Wondering if anyone has been following him more than me and how he is doing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on a quick read of the thoughts of Sheffield United supporters, some aren’t impressed while others are more of the opinion he’s doing what he can but has little hope of shining in their team as they’re pretty bad. Still some uncertainty over the finer details of the buy back clause. If there’s no obligation for us to do so upon their possible (probable) relegation, I doubt we will activate it.

The Fun Factory Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 They look utterly hopeless and doomed to relegation. It's going to be a long hard season for him. He will do well to get 5-10 goals. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 It doesnt look good at the moment. I think its getting harder and harder for newly promoted clubs. The gap between the Premier League and the championship has never been wider. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree Especially when you throw in loans while down there The idea of doing a Fulham or doing a Villa is the reality of what needs to be done, maybe not so much doing a forest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well since the thread stopped getting bumped for taking pops at Ollie and Duran you can say it has gone quiet I doubt he will be happy as he wont get any service Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StanBalaban Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 Kinda reminds me of Dwight Gayle - too good for the Championship, not quite at PL level. Hope he does well though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gap between the Premier League and the championship has never been wider. People keep saying this but last season all three promoted sides stayed up for the first time in ages. Think the more salient fact is that both Luton and Sheff Utd came up with crap squads and no money to spend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pongo Waring Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 (edited) Dropped to the bench for today's game against Arsenal. Hope the rumours of us having to buy him back If they get relegated aren't true. Would be worrying if we have to blow £20 Million of our budget on a player who wont improve us Edited October 28, 2023 by Pongo Waring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway 2-0 now so hasn't worked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’d net out to essentially being a loan where we paid some of the wages. I’m sure we’d be able to sell him again if we wanted to. He won’t suddenly become crap even if he has a bad season in the PL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We agree to sell a player, but if that player goes there and plays like a turnip for the season, and the team get themselves relegated, then we have to buy him back? Nah.

Strog Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Feel for the lad as he’s playing for a team that will struggle to get 20 points this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villatillidie95 Posted October 28, 2023 Share Posted October 28, 2023 Archer has had a raw deal going there, he would have suited the team under wilder with their fullbacks cutting back a lot more. He will be a beast in the championship and I’m confident we won’t have to buy him back if they relegate, not that it would be a bad thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
