Wow. Didn't see that one coming. Knew we'd be in for some weird, lower league signings.
But still...

Another 30 year old...hmmmm

Being 30 doesn't quite fit in with what Jones seems to be about and would just add to our ever ageing squad, I'm not convinced.

You know a lot about him then🤔 |

Well he’ll only have to not be an absolute c*nt to prove a better signing than Saido.

If Jones wants him, there’s a reason.
Get behind him.

Hmmmm... he works hard.
Doesn't set the pulse racing.

This is exactly the kind of signing I want to see.
Players who have something to prove, some hunger. Give me that over a premier league old boy who thinks he’s doing us a favour and coming for a pay day every day of the week.

Thinking about it, it does kind of make sense.
He's got a great attitude.
He works hard and runs the channels all day long.
Can chip in with goals.
Not physically but maybe a signing similar to Walters? He doesn't give defenders a moments peace does he?

Sounds like the type of character we need but doesn’t really fit in with Jones’ fast and athletic mantra.
Hopefully he’s signing to compete with Vokes and we’ll sign another striker with pace and a better goal scoring record.

To be fair Pugs, I suppose Sheffield United fans said the same about David McGoldrick and Norwich fans the same about Pukki. It's weird but we'll see... |

Hunger or looking for one last payday closer to home? Be interesting to hear the managers rational behind this one. |

The only glimmer to take away is its a freebie so potentially low risk. 5 year contract incoming ? |

I’ll admit I’ve never heard of him, however if he’s what you describe - and he replaces an outgoing Afobe - then it’s good business. |

Sheff U and Norwich are a bunch of no-names, aren't they?
Built by managers who know what they want in terms of attributes and attitude in a set system.
I'm happy just to go with whatever Jones has hand-picked for his system, and he'll live and die with it as he says!

His record in the past couple of years is similar to McGoldrick at Ipswich. He’s one of about 50 forwards in the championship this season who has looked a hell of a lot more purposeful than our lot this season. |

Have to admit, I said to my mate today the only Blades player I’ve heard of from their team today is Billy Sharp. We don’t have to spend big, but we absolutely have to spend wisely. |

Strange one and a potential blocker for Campbell. Strange, yes. Blocker for Campbell? Don't agree. Vokes, Campbell and Gregory would give us three different strikers. One target man, one Walters type grafter (both experienced) and one young poacher. I won't lie and try and say I'd predicted it or even suggested it but that's not to say it wouldn't work. The Championship is weird and weird stuff works sometimes. If he works harder than Afobe he's onto a winner before he starts and remember the last time we were in this league and promoted, we did so with Mama and Cresswell! |
