Escobarp Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Let’s believe that Evatt knows what he wants and what he’s doing and let’s judge these guys once he’s brought them in and got them into his system. I don’t know barrows players other than Rooney but I imagine they don’t have great records yet they just won a league which if we are honest is probably not that much weaker than the one we are going into. keep the faith let’s see what he delivers player wise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowball Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 im sure those Oakland Athletics fans werent impressed by many of Billy Beans signings until they saw them in their team. Think its going to be the model unheralded players who"s stats, age etc add up. weve been spoiled by first few signings but we cant be splashing money on everyone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted July 18, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted July 18, 2020 I look at Sheffield Utd signings and usually think wtf, similar with Burnley but a good manager who’s done his homework makes it work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnnyrotten Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 There will be plenty 2nd choice keepers who good quality, that just cant get a game, they just need a break at a lower level. Just trust his judgement (although I'd still love to see Matthews or Lonerghan come back as they definitely have the ability and right character).

masi 51 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Would imagine him to be a back up keeper on very little. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Lofthouse Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 11 hours ago, Johnnyrotten said: Bannan was best midfielder we've had in recent years surely. I dont think we saw best of him but he'd walk into 90% of championship sides. I liked Medo too on a good day. Those 3 don't come close to Thorpe, Trotter and Murphy in the inept league. Tallest dwarf competition really, literally. Very good player now for sheffield wednesday, but I don’t remember him doing much for us and the point I was making was he played with others around him of similar build and we got bullied week in week out.

Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted July 18, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted July 18, 2020 I like Matthews, I know many don’t but I also don’t see him hanging around. weve been a shit storm since he arrived. Not his fault. Can see him at somewhere like Lincoln or Ipswich. Similar or less money but nearer where he’s from. I feel sorry for him. Young lad, came up to further his career then Anderson happened. Probably better for everyone if we part ways but I’d be delighted if he stayed on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Casino Posted July 18, 2020 Moderators Share Posted July 18, 2020 Aye When you have as much to do as him. You're going to fcuk up a few times Second to Lincoln...ouch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Behind a shit defence most keepers would've let a few in and so let's not wed ourselves to him and worry if he moves on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted July 18, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted July 18, 2020 Just now, Mr Grey said: I would assume Mrs Matthews will be making the decision Like Mrs Doyle & Mrs Sarcevic. At the age he needs to settle nearer home. For that reason, I hope Evatts signings are largely lads from the area or at least have a connection to NW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you seen the goals Doyle & Sarcevic scored last season? We ain’t signing anything special. Not saying Matthews is but there’s some shit in L2. Think Kevin Rose rather than Keith Brannigan until we get up from here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are plenty of decent keepers available on a free for our level now, Howard is ok, but I reckon we can get better for lower wages imo.

Too good for us where we are now. Compared to someone like De Gea, Pickford or Lloris, keepers you just cant rely on, I'd have him every time. Lonerghan in a similar vein, humble and you dont have to worry about them dropping a clanger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Howard was really terrible. No presence, didnt seem to communicate, not tall enough, kicking terrible (remember at Oldham in that must win game when he kicked it into touch about 10 times running?). Just didnt make saves, as bad a keeper as we've had for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
