None entities🙄we really do have some arsewipes post on here 209 appearances for Bristol City 39 appearances for Boro 86 appearances for Cardiff A real non entity that🙄 Quite the CV that! You were expecting different? It's the kind of cv most clubs signings below the prem will be this season I imagine.

Reading what the Cardiff fans have got to say about him doesn't exactly fill me with optimism about the guy as a player. What an exciting way to open our dealings this summer.. not!! I imagine Forest fans thought the same when hopping on here to read up on Surridge. Bit of a difference. Surridge isn't at the fag end of his career and moved to a side who play on the front foot, coached by a manager who knows how to get the best out of him 👍

Hes 6ft 6 and averages a goal ever 6 or 7 games. That's better than pretty much all of our squad. I'm not overly arsed at what his "progressive passing" stats are, nor his ability to bring it out from the back. Sign the fucker up. And stick the ball on his noggin. Chester out / Flint in = improvement. That's great and all but if we're still insisting on using a system that relies in part on 'progressive passing' from the back then it's not ideal, is it?

For me it adds no balance to the back line. We need a left footed centre half to play in a back four or five. Silly signing unless Souttar is off.

He’s a seasoned pro in the Championship so one thing this deal has got going for it is that it’s a not a gamble signing and we should be well aware of exactly what he brings to the squad. We need goals from the CB’s and we certainly need that.

Surridge isn't at the fag end of his career and moved to a side who play on the front foot, coached by a manager who knows how to get the best out of him 👍 Point being… I’d rather judge him on how he plays for us (if he signs) and not how others have perceived him when playing for another club.

Didn’t a similar player play a big role in our promotion season in Leon Cort🤔

That back line looks fucking awful I think only one of those 3 would feature in a back 3? And it's got to be Souttar (if fit) No way Jagielka or Flint could play in the 2 wider roles, and MON would want Souttar in the middle. So I think it's definitely hinting at a back 4. Where Wilmot fits in wuold be interesting though You already know it. Right back.

Maybe Flint is seen as our new focal point up front!

I'm really not happy about this one, I've got a Bristol City & a Boro fans telling me how shit he is and he played for them in his "prime". He's the complete opposite of what we need when looking at centre halves, he's slow and can't pass for shit. He's big and decent in the air but apparently is a complete fanny with a mistake in him constantly. A like for like Chester’s replacement then ?

Yes I agree with that and let’s hope O’Neill has a similar plan to get the best out of the players he signs along with the injured players coming back

Cort was much younger and one of the first players we broke the £1m barrier for He was/is similar in his goal threat,his height and both probably lack a little with the ball at their feet. Yes I’ll give you Flint is 2/3 years older than when we signed Cort(who was 29) but Flint also went to Boro from Bristol City for a few of around £7 million

I thought Leon Cort was shit defensively……much preferred Clint Hill. Was very good in the opposition penalty area mind.
Flint, like Kalis, is a strange one. On the face of it doesnt appear to be the type of CH that suits the way MON wants us to play. Still, got to give him a chance
