Johnmfc81 902 Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Roberts plays on the right and cuts in on his left, and Jones plays on the left and cuts in on his right. Should be good additions to the team and would improve us 🤞 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Agree, 433 in attack and 4231 while defending probably. Link to post Share on other sites

He has hardly featured this season Link to post Share on other sites

boro-unger 3,816 Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 It's about time we got some decent loanees in. Strengthen the squad without busting the bank. Who's the last decent loan we got in? Link to post Share on other sites

His attitude stunk but he was unbelievable in that championship season. He was a genuine no.10. Not had one since the little fella. Also not everyone's cup of tea but i actually liked Negredo when he signed on loan. I thought he had exceptional technical ability. It was just a shame our tactics that season were solely focused on preventing opposition scoring as opposed to how we could hurt them. It meant when the ball went up to him and he bought it down the closest people to him were the fans who were in the stands. Link to post Share on other sites

As a loan player Gaston done it for us, it soon went the way the Southampton fans warned us about the next season though. I forgot Negredo was on loan, he had a tough ask in an ultra negative side. He done all he could for us in my eyes, couldn’t really fault him for his efforts. It was interesting hearing folk around me call him lazy, I thought he was anything but!

Jamie-H 1,322 Posted December 31, 2019 Share Posted December 31, 2019 Jordan Jones I rate if we get him in I think he'd be dynamic and you can see us potentially keeping him long term, Roberts is a guy I'm not sold on personally even for 6 months. I'm not convinced you target Jones + Roberts if you're planning to keep Britt they'll need a taller guy to play off like Fletcher or Cosgrove. It all sounds good to me though we're trying to evolve our starting XI and setup rather than just filling squad spots something Pulis did too much in my opinion. Link to post Share on other sites

I just can't see us offering players that level of salary when the product as a whole on the pitch has not really warranted it. For the club to be sustainable we have to set a realistic cap on what we offer players. That will probably mean the likes of Ayala and Howson being offered possibly half of their current wage and add promotion bonus. Ayala is on 15k, we've offered him 5k Howson is on even less so you can imagine what we've offered him. We're not going above 10k on new contracts. Link to post Share on other sites
