Cottonbudjoe 127 Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 If we make a decent profit from Warburton buying the players he brought here, will his signings for us be considered a success? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let Pedro be the judge of his credentials. He has some good attributes but some glaringly obvious weaknesses, let the new manager try set his team up to utilise his strengths and then we can form our opinions.

tannerall 25,935 Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 So it just happens that three similar clubs in the middle of England have spontaneously and independently taken an interest in Waghorn. Just shows agents are upping thier act as we get towards the end of the season as the Summer transfer window approaches, spreading rumours and fanning "interest" in strategic areas, then sitting back abd watching the media and fans do the rest.................

He has some good attributes but some glaringly obvious weaknesses, let the new manager try set his team up to utilise his strengths and then we can form our opinions. He definitely has some ability but I think his game would probably benefit from a change of position. You're either a natural finisher or you're not, it's not something you can be taught IMO. Sadly for Waghorn he lacks the composure in front of goal but still seems to see himself as a striker, that will be his downfall here. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Robot 21,133 Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Great skill at bringing the ball down also taking pens but no pace and seems to have poor decision making when it really matters Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tannerall 25,935 Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 I like Waghorn's attitude, and on form he holds the ball well and fights to get in to decent positions. Only problem is he struggles to convert chances to goals at a consistent rate. If he immproves his goal ratio he is definitely a keeper.

bluebovril 110 Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Can't help thinking that he'll have something written into his contract and go for a nominal fee.with Warburton'sdaughter involved with the player's contracts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tannerall 25,935 Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Obviosly Waghorn realised his goal conversion rate is a problem hence the reason he went to the specialist striker training stuff. Most top strikers have a selfish streak which allows them more confidence in going straight for goal. Being forced in to a tight team orientered plan,often negates that. Maybe our ex-manager should have got more involved and managed the problem better, rather than leaving it to the player. Me ? I'd have said to him go out there and be a greedy wee cunt and see how it goes for a few games. Maybe Pedro will give him more confidence and the space to do this ?

Prso's headband 35,306 Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 £2 mill for Tav £1.5 for Waghorn and £1mill for Kiernan. Leave us in a good position like you said you did Warbiola Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said I'd rather get rid of Dodoo and Garner and keep Waghorn as I think there could be a player in him somewhere. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
