DurhamRed 2,043 Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 I think the Bournemouth move will depend on if they sell Josh King to the Hammers Link to post Share on other sites

Just my opinion scotty , but I think lots of people are under valuing Britt . He is a 3/1 goalscoring forward who is available at a relatively low price . Not exactly loads of them about at the fee mentioned . The likes of Derby , Forest , AFCB , Sheff U, Wolves ( back up ) Watford , Bristol C , Cardiff , QPR , Brum Millwall , Reading ,Celtic , Rangers I would expect to have him on their short list . Britt could get you up , or keep you up , if he plays at his best . Edited January 8, 2021 by Simply Red Link to post Share on other sites

Only Bamford comes to mind but he was excellent for us as well so doesn't really count Rule #1: Never forget Stuani. 😓 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I have seen enough of him to say that hes not gonna go elsewere and make an impact. Yeh he might score the odd goal but he isnt gonna suddenly turn into a good footballer. Alot of people might think im unfair in saying that but hes got to be one of the most frustrating footballers ive ever watched for the boro. Ive always wanted him to do well bit its never worked out for him. People might say we haven't played to his strengths but why woukd yku set a team around a player like britt? So he can score 15 goals a season? Because hes never done any better at this level. Good luck to him if he goes. He seems like a nice lad but it just hasnt worked. Time to move on and try something different. Just hope we replace him in this window Link to post Share on other sites
boronutter 149 Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 im sure we can replace him without too much difficulty,hes a very,very average striker 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Glenn Murray is not injury prone and any successful business is based on art of negotiation my friend. If they wont fit within our pay structure then we walk away. i do think a Murray or a Austin might prove to be an inspired signing for last 6 months. Like a Marco Branca, Alun Armstrong type. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Dynamo Kev 1,552 Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 we need another forward/striker who can actually play football and link up well with all the young lads like tav spence djiksteel bola etc. we have the makings ofa pretty good footballing side 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Can we not just have a striker who has good link up play generally and can brings all his team mates in to play. I assume that is Warnocks intention to in targetting likes of Moore and now seemingly the Bristol city lad. Link to post Share on other sites

If we're gonna get another striker it should be an option we don't have, which is why I think it'll be a big physical presence/target man. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

TeaCider24 12,401 Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 (edited) Charlton have accepted offers for Alfie Doughty from 3 Championship clubs (1 probably being Stoke), any chance one of them is us? He's a winger. Link to post Share on other sites
