He did play most games to be fair. He only got ten full 90s in the league but he played in 42 out of 46 games throughout the league season, which is only behind McNair and Saville. He's 10th in minutes played but the only two players he could play ahead of in the rest of the top 10 are Bola and Tav, neither of which I'd have swapped for Johnson.

DanFromDownSouth 1,706 Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 Going back a few pages, but if our interest in the Morecambe winger (Gomes) is real. I think he'd be a decent addition, I'm not sure he'd make an instant impact, but certainly with some time could do well. Link to post Share on other sites

If he's on more than 8k a week Id rather we sell and get someone who can contribute for 90 mins. With Wing it's pretty simple to me. He's going to be on a low wage, and he's already here, so you use him as a squad player, and if he's playing well then he gets in the side. If he isn't he's on the bench. Either way it's not costing you much, and it's almost certain that a replacement would cost more. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
DanFromDownSouth 1,706 Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 Do we have a rough timeframe for when Browne is back from injury? Will he get a pre-season under his belt, or is he potentially still out injured over the summer? Link to post Share on other sites

That is a shame, looked to be just finding his feet in terms of impacting a game, then gets a real long term injury. Link to post Share on other sites

Redcar Rioja 5,976 Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 Reading some of the suggestions on here makes me nervous. I hope we are looking to sign first team starters and not back up players. There is no point in signing back ups to players that finished 10th in the Championship not unless we are looking to finish 15th next season! We need better than we have, not back ups to a sea of underwhelming bottlers. On the Diedhiou topic, put simply he isn't worth anything like he was being paid at Bristol. We have just rid ourselves of two of those exact same types of Strikers in Fletcher and Assombalonga so why on earth we would bring in another overpaid, mediocre, hot and cold striker? Add in the supposed "issues/injuries" that he finished the season with and I'd say he is exactly the sort of player that we don't want to sign either very early or very late. Not at all would be my preference. The last thing we want is a player with an inflated sense of importance on higher wages than the rest of the squad who begrudgingly contributes 10 goals a season (or maybe 12 if he can be bothered), with three of them like as not coming in the Carabao Cup against Harrogate on a Tuesday night in late August. 6 Link to post Share on other sites

Coming back that late into the year is going to be tough. It will likely be near Christmas before he is anything like fully fit and then there is the worry in the back of his mind going into challenges. He may find himself out on loan come January to get his career back on track. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
