Tom 2,492 Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 1 minute ago, BoroJake said: Matt crooks is a bizarre signing to me. Paying probably over 1 million for him it seems. Would he even be in the first 11? Well if last season is anything to go by, we won't really have a 'first 11' as such. For the bulk of the season, Betinelli, the back 4 and Howson were the only players guaranteed a start when fit. The other 5 players in the team were a little harder to pin down. Even if Crooks doesn't start the season in the side, he'll make 30+ appearances if he stays fit. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
RiversideRed 1,216 Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 I'd like us to get Crooks, a winger and another ST in by the time the season starts at Fulham in 18 days. Link to post Share on other sites

BoroSmoggie 2,678 Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 Really need some wingers like. Good ones aswell. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
sambaDTR 260 Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 (edited) Crooks can play in various positions and, at 6 foot 3, could probably play as 9 or 10. He will probably be our Championship Harry Kane! Edited July 21, 2021 by sambaDTR Link to post Share on other sites
mendieta420 988 Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 Ste Walker wasn’t with the reserve team in Redcar tonight so he’s either injured or completely frozen out. Link to post Share on other sites

Can see his contract being cancelled and allowed to find a new club, something he would have to agree to Link to post Share on other sites

Him and Payero in a midfield 3 ahead of one of Howson/Morsy who will sit. Link to post Share on other sites

Seems a bit too attacking for Warnock that midfield three I would think Link to post Share on other sites

TeaCider24 12,396 Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 The fee probably took haggling because Northampton have a sell on clause. Link to post Share on other sites
TLF10 4,440 Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 Really want Payero tied up ASAP even if it just to confirm he joining us after the olympics. The more it drags on the more it has the hallmarks of a famous failed transfer. Link to post Share on other sites
