Craig Davies

i feel we need to start signing players now

 

[Stoo82]

Thats 3 strikers gone now, however losely we use the term.

 

[Martin Lambert]

Got to be something big in the pipeline?

Suggests the management are pretty confident of getting another striker in. With the squad number 58 on his training kit for pre-season, he was probably never going to play anyway.

 

[Barrel of Fun]

I imagine we gave up hope of any sort of fee when he opted for Chesterfield.

"Mr Bloom. Thank you for such swift business in resolving the transfer of Craig Davies. Yes, there is definitely a cheque in the post"

I think this means we will sign Barnes + a higher profile striker. Surely the club wouldn't let Dickinson leave at least if this wasn't the case.

not forgetting FORSTER.

I hope there is someone in the pipeline thats worth it and i hope its barnes and a proven goal scorer as i feel we need a big stong forward that can hold the ball up and get us playing football and that just what i think.

 

[CAPTAIN GREALISH]

we need 2 more strikers if we are to be in the hunt for premotion

 

[Fourteenth Eye]

Shame it didnt work out for him here. A couple of more goals early on would have really boosted his confidence. Good luck to him

 

[brightonmark1234]

I would say 3 strikers and 2 of them proven goal scorers and one big and tall and stong and can hold up the ball and get us playing football.

I love your posts. They're so SWEET and ADORABLE.

My name is mark and I like dogs and my favourite colour is red because that's the colour of Man U

If we sign 2 strikers we'll have Murray, Holroyd, Barnes (hopefully), + another.

Assuming the latter striker is a good one, that could well do the job.

Longer term I'd like Holroyd to be replaced.

Yeah, I know.

I guess I just see all our forwards going and none comming in! Your right though, two more will be enough for us to have a good season especially if we keep Murray.

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

Unlike other recently binned strikers he gave his best when he played for us. For that reason I wouldn't have minded keeping him as a squad player, even though like other recently binned strikers he's not that good
At least he provided an option though.

Means we need to sign two strikers at the very minimum.

l agree, am l the only one who actually liked him?, admittedly his goal to game ratio when he was here was pretty awful, but he barely had a chance, and even when he did you had the feeling that once he netted one, others would soon follow.

Either way, far superior to Holroyd.

 

[brightonmark1234]

at the moment we hav murray and holroyd the only 2 forwards

Heard a lot of people saying similar, but IMO confidence was not the problem with Davies, he's simply just not good enough for League 1 and would never ever fit in with Gus' style of play.

Think he's found his level with Chesterfield and hope he scores a few

I think Holroyd has been written off far to early by some people. There's no chance of Gus shipping him out this summer. He still has something to offer us.

I expect Holroyd will be a good young player with potential in FM2011 then?!?!

His ability will reflect his current squad status. So pretty low in the first team bracket. There will be room for improvement though.
