Summer Transfer Rumours - Deadline Day p446

With all the analysis that goes on in matches these days I'm pretty sure that the stats for all players will be known. I wonder where Kirk ranks in the stat for impact on a game. We all have our own opinions and eyes to rate players, but I wonder where he ranks. Holden 'may' know or see something we don't. Either that or he's been told that the only way Kirk is leaving, is of he's put in the shop window and somebody puts in an offer to take him!cafcsinger said:Kirk is no way near good enough, league 2 player at absolute best0 -
If the rumours are true that we bid 500k for Nombe then we're obviously prepared to spend money. Just a question of finding the right deal. As Callum said if it means waiting 4 weeks to sign the right player instead of rushing in now and getting someone for the sake of it then i'd rather wait.Redhenry said:We need to sign a striker, money needs to be spent or the season will be wasted again.

If Matt Godden is available surely we should be going in for him?5

Not sure he is what we are looking for as a partner for May. Would be great competition for him and better than Kirk, Campbell, Kanu who are backups for that role currently, but would think we’d have to at least move Kirk on (and probably a few more) before signing another for the May roleI-SAW-POUSO-PLAY said:If Matt Godden is available surely we should be going in for him?1 -

Would rather see Payne on the pitch than Kirk, any day.DyerConsequences said:Kirk is much more it seems likely to start at the weekend, and has for the last couple of games started.
Payne already looks at most like a squad player.
I'd say that's why Kirk is being discussed more.3 - Sponsored links:

Can we not just start a Charlie Kirk thread?10

Not been given much publicity by the club, strange for such a local game.2 -
Well, we know for a fact he’s already signed. ****s confirmed it a few days ago.CAFC_boi said:
Saw this on the league one transfermarkt, when I was just catching up on all the league one ins/outs before the season starts.
probably nonsense, but thought I’d share as it’s a reputable site and there’s only 6 rumours listed - 4 of them have happened and 1 is expected to happen and the only other one is Nombe to Charlton with them saying there is a 75% chance of it happening!3 -
What's the point of wasting money on players that might not be the right fit for the club? I think we will bring another 3 or 4 players before the end of the window, and 2 or 3 will also be moved on as well.Redhenry said:We need to sign a striker, money needs to be spent or the season will be wasted again.

Who said he was top end championship ? He had 2 good months in the championship with us , but bar his first couple of months with Ipswich , he has been awful since .DubaiCAFC said:
Remember, he scored couple of tap in's in the championship, he is a top end championship player!!! well according to many on here.. Poor player! Bad attitude!NabySarr said:Bonne spotted at Gillingham2 -
He actually scored with some decent finishes in the Championship. He is a pretty poor player, but that was a fact.17

Go back on the Bonne feed, you will see plenty! He wasn't good for us in the championship, scored a few tap in's! He also missed 2 or 3 big chances at the end of the season which ultimately got us relegated!wmcf123 said:

Awful Awful player!8 -
But he was good against Millwall, so I couldn’t write him off just yet.cazo said:Not Kirk it’s like playing with 10 men
The Aberdeen game was a weird one, but at least we learned a lot from it (Ness no good on the left of a back three, CBT defo ng as a wing back, a strong guy need to play alongside May, don’t always pass out from the back).
For me Campbell is better than Kirk who is ok on the bench until we acquire someone better.2 - Sponsored links:

For me Campbell is better than Kirk who is ok on the bench until we acquire someone better.Tbh as soon as I posted that I thought, ‘what was the point, I don’t really rate him’.But I remember the big build up when we signed him, as he was highly rated at the time, and the occasional flashes where he makes a good cross, or makes a good late run into the box. Also remember the sad passing of his dad, so would still like if he came good somehow.1 -

He really really wasn’t good against Milwall. I will hold my hands up and say he made a clever run and a nice finish. He also did one nice backheel. Other than that he was an embarrassment compared to the rest of the team that worked hard and got stuck in. He bottled challenges, didn’t bother closing down defenders, always jumped up for a header staring at the player not the ball, and didn’t try anything that wasn’t a 95% guaranteed simple pass. He can’t even be a stand in. Campbell had done more in 5 minutes.JamesSeed said:

Kirk or Bonne?
With debates like this, no wonder we are still in L1!3 -

Cheers for that. I’ll hold my hand up and say that I only saw the highlights and read what seemed like fairly positive comments.RC_CAFC said:

And maybe Holden agrees, hence the number of minutes he’s been given in pre season.4 -
Saw lots of unread posts this morning on this thread and thought there must be some rumours! But no its an ongoing discussion about Kirk! Any chance the mods can start a Kirk thread instead? Surely that would make sense!

Would make more sense to start a tactics and formations thread rather than cluttering what's supposed to be a rumours thread.
