Player Suggestion Nick powell

[TJB.]

This one is my favourite:



Great coup, especially considering Wood left Leeds 12 months ago...

Just looks wrong him holding that shirt up.

We all make mistakes, I suppose.

 

[Iceybabey]

Anyone got any idea what "ROUMERS" means?

Rumours, but in cockney.

 

[Grizzly blade]

Would like...now there’s a Duffy replacement and. Coutts understudy right there.

However, I believe that will be bollocks

 

[mattbianco1]

It's a parody account

 

[Bartleby]

I'm not sure I can take an account called "Footy Soccer Transfers" seriously.

Also, "Bramall".

with a total of 6 followers and an IQ to match by the looks of it

 

[Bartleby]

Yep think you're right if "Geordie club Sunderland" is owt to go by.

And this

 

[Yellarbellyblade]

It’s a bollocks site but in fairness I would like this.

No way it’s happening though unless someone knows otherwise

 

[Calblade]

Would be a great signing. Although two things, apparently he's a bit of a knob. And two, Wigan rejected a 10 million pound bid for him in January. Got many potential suitors which makes this unlikely.

 

[JordoBlade]

Apparently everyone wants 8 million for their players.

 

[Captain]

Big, strong, proven goal scorer and leaving Wigan.
Worth a look as back up striker.

 

[JackSUFC]

He’s a midfielder.

Good player and I wouldn’t be opposed to signing him as a squad player though, seeing as there wouldn’t be a transfer fee involved.

Linked with Pigs and Stoke I saw.

 

[Kozzy_is_my_Dad]

I think we should be looking above his level now, with all due respect.

 

[GymClassHero]

Could be a good back up for the Duffy role?

Always seemed to have bags of potential but never realised it.

 

[S64 Blade]

Totally agree. Falls in to the same bracket as Luke Freeman.

 

[FTPE]

Totally agree. Falls in to the same bracket as Luke Freeman.

How high are you expecting us to aim?
I think Freeman isn't only perfect for us but I can't really think of many better, in that price bracket.

I like Freeman, but he is 27 now and unlikely to have much of a resale value. Canos at Brentford (or Benrahma) would be my pick for that position, or Celina at Swansea.

Can play upfront saw him rip Stoke apart early last season when Wigan win 3-0 at The Brit!
Free transfer, another nugget like McG

 

[FTPE]

Is Canos the lad who dribbled past the entire Leeds team the other week?
I really like the look of him.
22 as well, very good shout.

 

[Chief_Froley]

Id take him on a free as Duffy back up.

Good age, on the way up and with a point to prove at this level with his time at Man U which ticks some big Wilder boxes and he's shown to be a good player at champ level if the worst happens next season.

We need to build a good squad, not just a good first 11 so worst case scenario he is a good player who fills several areas (CAM, ST and CM) we need to improve without costing anything. Thats a big help for us as a whole.

Freeman is on an upward trajectory. Resale value shouldn't be an issue. He'll peak in his late 20s/early 30s, like Duffy. He relies more on skill and intelligence than any sort of athleticism. He's also more hardworking and a better fit for our team than others mentioned.

I’ve been advocating Canos since the Brentford home game,

I’d look at him for the Duffy role rather than wingback though.

It's a yes from me

 

[AdamSufc1997]

Not prem quality move on

 

[Kozzy_is_my_Dad]

Int it interesting, I think of Freeman as being in a different, better, but still affordable bracket to Powell.

 

[mancunianblade]

Maybe wrong as per usual but those touting players as back up for the Duffy role maybe surprised to see Duffy as back for to the Duffy role

 

[Pinchy]

Either would be attractive if you were targeting immediate relegation. Tufty isn’t and won’t be interested. Good.

 

[Rodley]

I can see the attraction if you’re missing players who have one good game in three, keep getting injured and don’t look like they try very hard.

 

[Fulwood Blade]

We need QUALITY.

If we don't get quality in the areas that it is needed then we will struggle.

Quality costs - don't buy = struggle early on = relegation fight early doors = struggle all season.

Point taken about Freeman and Powell - potentially they could both be McG mk 2 and potentially they might not be either.

Huddersfield hit the ground running first year, got points on the board which helped greatly in the run in...................just !

Quality.

UTB

Literally that's how Ipswich described mcg to a tee.

 

[Rodley]

Generally McGoldrick was liked though mate. Not sure there were many complaints about his attitude. Most Wigan fans won’t give Powell the time of day, despite being top scorer. There’s a general perception that he’s not interested in football, just does it because it’s lucrative. That worries me.
