A lot can depend on how the proposed payment is structured (it's rarely all the cash up front) but in this case it's probably down to it being the Venky's doing the selling and there is no rationale in their thinking whatsoever :lolol:
Sadly I think it's right that carrying over from last season our opponents only need to score one goal to be confident of at least a draw and probably a win. No matter how good our defence it leaves them no leeway.
We need pace and we need one of our strikers to develop the self belief that if...
I would be disappointed not to get Marshall. He is strong, has good pace, can cross a ball from the wing, or thread a pass through the middle. Just what we need (edit: even if he is third choice) :lolol:
Sheffield Utd reportedly after Will Buckley on a seasons loan !!!!!!
Would free the way for Murphy to leave and might end our interest in Marshall unless we are after both?
We are now odds on to sign him with Wednesday reportedly no longer interested (if they ever were).
Looks like it's down to offering enough for Blackburn to bite. Given that they have lost 12 from last season and are likely to lose both their main strikers that may not be entirely straightforward.
