Looks a decent prospect but surely that'll leave us a glut of central midfielders, considering we have Shinnie and Watson to come back, Pratley who's a central midfielder, Gilbey (on a 3 year contract) plus JFC and Morgan
Disagree, if we can replace Pratson/Watley in this window we should. I’d like to think we'll release both in the summer and build a squad for the longer term with the majority on 2-4 year deals, something we’ve not properly done since 2011, 10 years ago. If he’s our top target he might not be available come the summer. A younger, mobile and energetic player who can do what they do and more would improve us a lot and could be hard to find.
I know in the past Rich has only gone public when we're close to signings, I really hope that's the case with this one, looks like what we need! Hope Smyth is giving us a good word in his ear
Weird one. Only a couple of games but then Tindall has said he wants him to stay and doesn’t want to lose him in the window. So doesn’t seem obvious they are willing to let him leave on loan unless we’re buying him.

Says in the article it would be a permanent move if it happens

Completely missed that in the first line, just read deal. Makes sense although you’d have thought Bournemouth are offering a much better deal than we will be able to.
In a theoretical world where we did want rid of Washington how exactly do we manage that without paying up his contract
we will not go up if bogle, washington or smyth spend much time on the pitch so doesn't matter what we dio with hbim - pop him up your bum if you like - we have 2 forwards + millar and we need another coz as i say, if chucks gets injured, its season over
if we can only have one player it would be a toss up between another striker (with physical presence and pace ideally or an athletic / physically imposing midfielder - ideally we get both after managing to offload a couple somehow
Can’t see we’d been in for another striker when we have 4 plus Smyth. I think it will definitely be a CM. Could be a CB but Deji playing well and Famewo back makes that doubtful.
because washington, bogle and smyth are useless? if chucks gets injured, its season over - id make it the priority
Washington is far from useless. How are you proposing we fund this striker?
same way you'd fund the player u want - he;s useless as an attacking threat
6 goals and an assist says otherwise.
His confidence may be lacking a touch at the moment but he's shown he has a bit of class there, we need to nurture that as we won't find better for 1.3k a week (which is all that is counted of his salary)
no it doesn't - no pace, no aerial ability, no physicality, lays it off, never attacks / takes anybody on - you are wrong but believe what u want
Love comments like this.
Your wrong Im right
Despite the fact you said he is useless as an attacking threat but have already been told he has 6 league goals so he clearly isnt useless, but ofcourse they are wrong and you are right 🤣🤣🤣
clearly - scored 6 goals, some penalties probs included in half a season - proves it beyond any doubt - what was i thinking - i trust my eyes
I know Gallagher is an exception to this, but I’m always more confident when any youngsters we sign has league experience. 22 matches for a promoted side is good experience. (Would have been more if season wasn’t curtailed I imagine)

No pace? He's quicker than Chuks, only Millar, Smyth and Maatsen are quicker out of the current fit players. Pace doesn't make a player better/worse just so you know.
Don't disagree on his lack of aerial ability, but which bit am I wrong about?
Salary is a fact Goal Interactions fact
Pulling defenders out of position fact
Hard working fact
I wouldn't give up on him yet, but you seem to be the very definition of the fickle football fan, you do you.
You're welcome to your opinion as I am mine and if you put it on a public forum it WILL be questioned.
fickle? i've watched him for half a season and my verdict is journeyman with very little threat - overall assessment - ineffective. You can pull it up all you like but you might as well have simon church out there
Great prospect but I can’t see how we’ll get him with Championship clubs sniffing around. Fingers crossed
Ignore all of that. He’s born and bred in Lewisham and his entire family still live there. I can see him being desperate to move back here, especially during lockdown.
unlikely he'll be picking millwall over us that's for sure

Very pacey player as shown when he gets in behind defenders. You dont want all the strikers playing the same way as its predictable to the oppo.
If you have 5 strikers then they all should play differently to offer something different to the team.
Aneke - Technically brilliant, strong, can finish. Bogle - Hold up player, strong & good in the air. Needs to improve his finishing and stay in a confident frame of mind. Washington - Plays off the shoulder of defenders, works his nuts off, presses defenders. Smyth - Appreciate he is more of a winger at this point but if he played up front, hes quick enough to play it over the top and he will always hassle. Schwartz - Fox in the box. Prob the best finisher we have now. Nasty player who will wind the oppo up.
Each strikers offers something different. Keeps the other team guessing.
For some reason you dont rate Washington and really have a strange vendetta against him.
And saying "you are wrong" is just plain obnoxious. This is a forum and everyone is entitled to an opinion....you can disagree of course but you arent all knowing.
If you dont want people to oppose your views then just dont put them on.
i don't have a vendetta against him - i rate him about the same as bogle and smyth although they are all in theory different type of players, but none are good enough and mark my words, if chucks gets injured, that's us screwed
I know in the past Rich has only gone public when we're close to signings, I really hope that's the case with this one, looks like what we need! Hope Smyth is giving us a good word in his ear
Without knowing much about him I really hope this one comes off, as others have said he looks like something we miss currently. He's a big lad so would give us some extra physicality in the middle.

Does he know him then?
Yeah they will have played together at Wycombe last year

ah, completely missed that connection, thanks for explaining.

He spent some time in the Millwall academy
I doubt he's desperate to return to London, he's hardly stranded in the middle of nowhere in Bournemouth! It's more that he wants/needs game time
Charlton Athletic are interested in a permanent deal for Bournemouth midfielder Nnamdi Ofoborh.
Can only begin to imagine the problems we're going to have on this site spelling his name.
Although when we we've conceded a goal, we've all had plenty of practice saying the first part: ..... "Oh, for" crying out loud, "Oh, for" f*cks sake, etc.

I think if RC has mentioned it it’s hopefully close.

Sounds promising.
