Alex Pritchard released by Huddersfield linked with us this morning
Attacking midfielder with 3 goals in 80 for Hudds !
He seems to have got slowly worse since he was at Brentford. Huddersfield fans won't be gutted that he is leaving, although they paid over ten million quid for him.
He is still only 28 and this is probably he last half decent move. He hasn't played in league 1 for a long time, maybe a chance to rebuild his career here then have 2 or 3 good years, with us, in the championship?
Failing that him and Chuks can compare stories about being linked to Barcelona :-)
Why do we have to get another dane? It's clear that Ronnie didn't work, hopefully Thomas dosn't have some obsession with signing Rolandesque Danes.
Scandinavian players have always done well in the English game, I am happy to sign a Dane if they are good enough. I doubt TS would force a player on us just because they remind him of home, Ronnie didn't work out but the next one could be the new Jensen.
Alex Pritchard, although only 28, is giving me far too many Ben Watson vibes. If he has a renewed hunger to perform then I’m all for it but that’s a big question mark IMO.
We need to bin off all our players, even the ones under contract because they are all shit.
We can't sign a player if they finished below us because they must be even more shit.
No one over the age of 28 because they are passed it and only looking for one last pay day.
No free transfers because they are obviously rubbish and no loans.
No one that has ever been to Demark
No loans because you can’t build a long term squad with loans
I have to say I agree with that one.
You shouldn't, it's silly. You don't want too many loans, but we would never have gone up a couple of years ago without Bielik and Cullen. Loans can give you access to excellent players you wouldn't otherwise have a chance of signing, you just don't want 5 out of your 11 players to be loans because then you have to rebuild after. A couple of quality first team loans could be the difference between promotion and staying in L1 for a team that has a lot of rebuilding to do

No one under 5ft 10"
"we can't extend Pearce's contract, there is no room for sentiment. Let's sign Jordan Cousins!"
or for Millwall
or for Palace
Good quality loans are priceless, especially at our level, low quality loans are a waste of everyone's time.
I would loan a premier league youngster as 4th choice centre back to allow barker u-23 time or a conference loan.
