wishawbear87 116 Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Done wll in the championship buthe was dreadful in premiership,at the time when he was sold everyone wanted him chased out for nothing never mind getting a sell on clause in his contract can't have your cake and eat it Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangersross 6,722 Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 I always liked him but it's just absolutely baffling that a striker who could so often fail to pass muster in the SPL could be worth £10M (same goes for Morelos). Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morelos is much better than Waghorn. Morelos looked like a good player, a bit of speculation and a bad miss (or two) in a big game and he went off the boil. Waghorn £8 million. This guy - https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/talksport.com/football/395935/wolves-agree-deal-manchester-citys-oleksandr-zinchenko/amp/ - £16 million!! If we were looking at him for £500,000 people would be posting 'meh' Richarlson - £50 million!! Transfer market down south has gone bonkers and we have to put our purchases in that context - and be realistic about who we can buy. Waghorn is now out of reach for us! We also have to start valuing our sales in that context as well - Windass, Tav and even Fod are worth a fortune if Championship and EPL teams looking at them.

Billy1984 6,314 Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Difference is Ipswich are selling to a direct rival on the back of him having a great season last season. We were essentially offloading him as our then manager didn't fancy him and he was out of form and low in confidence.

RowX 146 Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 We never played him in a system that suited him. That 4-3-3 with him out wide was a waste most of the time. Scores for fun in a front two and will probably continue to do so. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigsasasfloppyhair 13,310 Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 He wasn’t the worst player by any means. Think we were quick on punting him and did so under value but don’t think he is good enough for us. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely that’s not true? If so it’s an utter shambles, do we ever make money? No idea where this figure came from as at the time it was reported to be £1m. Sounds like PR move on their end. I think at the time most people were applauding us getting that fee for him. Funny how things change. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s always how I seen it too. Got injured on the opening day of the season and came back into a struggling team, lost his confidence and never got it back as we went though a series of poor managers, with poor man management skills. I never thought he was good enough to be our main striker who we expect to hit 20+ goals a season but if we had kept him I think he would have got 12-15 goals a season for us.

Ipswich play 442 or 352 predominantly. He was 6th top scorer in the Championship with the highest number of assists (11) of any of the top 10 scorers. We did not play to his strengths or those of Gardner’s and I think most other than Warburton could see that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Secondly which many people seem to be ignoring, he was in his final year, which puts down his value. That being said considering his scoring record and the scum being able to get a 'reported' £7m for Armstrong in his final year, then we should have been able to get closer to £1m for him. I'm in full agreement with you, I just think the hypocrisy of some people on here is baffling. Not saying the OP is one of them, but people talk about snapping peoples' hands off for below market value figures for our players then have the cheek to moan when we sell them below market value.
