Incoming? Harvey Knibbs

[Reedy1889]

Someone's in for him

Charlton I think, seems to be the latest rumour on X

 

[EddieColquhoun]

Linked with Charlton.

Linked with Charlton.

Issac Olafe, Tyreece Campbell, Charlie Kelman (apparently having his medical) and Harvey Knibbs (not done yet).

For a team heavily predicted to be in a relegation scrap, that's a cracking forward line which would have more than enough goals to keep them up if they add enough quality elsewhere.

Aye
Collectively 146 goals in 666 (‘lower’ league) games
c/f
149:473 for Cannon & Moore (predominantly Championship & >)

With Selles' Reading connection I'm sure he knows all about him and if he wanted him we'd have been in for him

I read on Reading board that they thought Norwich had stuck a bid for him?

We’ll see soon enough

 

[BerksBlade]

Missed Reading's friendly with Pompey on Saturday.
Local rag say he's signing for Charlton.

I do t think it's us based on recent rumours. Seems next two are the foreign based lads.

Shades of Chris Wilder 1.0.

Hope it works out just as well!

Charlton move off, officially from Noel Hunt

Do we really want this lad? He may turn out to be a decent signing but not at the cost of more urgent positions. Feels like people are just desperate to sign anyone as long were buying players.

Glad we cleared that up.

Think we could really do with a goal-scoring 8, in the mould of Rudoni or Brownhill. None of our midfield three last season offered much of goal threat, and it really cost us at times. (Definitely not as important to address as some other positions though).

Doesn't moving Hamer to 8 fill that need?

I should have said 10 rather than 8 actually

 

[Toronto Blade]

Without considering the average xG of shots taken, that second stat is completely irrelevant. I could score once every two shots if I waited for tap ins

A tap in got us past the pigs

What is it with us not prioritising CBs?

 

[loyalblade95]

What is it with us not prioritising CBs?

We might well be, but no journalists have managed to get a sniff at any potential names, we we're linked with Ash Phillips and a few foreign CB's at the start of the window.

Plus the latest Danny Hall article mentions that a player who can play both RB and CB remains a priority, there were a few more quotes from Selles in there as well.

Absolutely worth a look for a few million

And then when we do, some of the same will soon be saying they're crap and the owners lack money and ambition.

Really interested by this one (purely based on stats, YouTube and late night EFL highlights).

Feels like a rotation option for Hamer at an affordable price - probably a safe purchase in that he should be able to step up and cope in the Championship. Wouldn't want him to replace Hamer, but we're short on CMs and this guy is a goalscoring CM.

Hes 26 and played over 200 league games at league one or lower. Scored a lot of goals for a midfielder and hes out of contract in a years time. Selles obviously knows him so if he signs him that will do for me despite the fact thay you have to wonder why hes only played for Cambridge and Reading despite his record.
