Varadi Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 That's the McCormack that was at Cardiff isn't it? Always looked bog standard average to me, very one-paced iirc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorJ_01 Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 I reckon he's one of those guys that just suits the Championship but no more. Like Ebanks-Blake. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Some Aussie on twitter having a pop at me for labelling McCormack in the same bracket as DJ Campbell, Jay Bothroyd and Gary Taylor-Fletcher, saying he would be a 'solid signing'. Fuck off, man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaylorJ_01 Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Ross McCormack. I think it's harsh to laugh at him. POTY, FPOTY and GOTS for Leeds last season plus 29 goals in 53. He's a bloody good Championship striker but I firmly believe he can't hack the Premiership. Saying that he's better than having literally nobody.

colinmk Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Have never rated McCormack, not sure what he was like last season but no way he can make the step up at this stage in his career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winn Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 In order of priority 2 main strikers (Urgent) Cabaye replacement (Urgent) 2 wingers Needed (Needed) solid utility full back (Needed) 1 backup striker (Nice) Centre back (Nice) Pointless opinion but makes me feel better.

Wallace Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Didn't McCormack play for the Mackems a few years ago? Was that in the Premier League or the Championship? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotus Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Wouldn't get upset if the press links us with these players. It's as likely as there agents just trying to drum up some interest or hope for a better deal from their current club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As if we would pay over £5m for a Championship player with no resale value, very little merit in it imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
loki679 Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 27 years old with a worse Championship strike rate than Shola 'Super Eagle' Ameobi. I just hope we can beat all the other teams in the race to seal the signature of this deadly pie eating marksman. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's scored the same amount of league goals for Leeds (3ish seasons) as Shola has managed in his career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
loki679 Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 I didn't say how many goals he'd scored, I said strike rate. While he was managing about 1 in 5 in the McMickey Mouse league Shola was in the prem so I went off their Championship records. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

More the concept of us going for him in the first place tbh. He's 27, this wouldn't be us going for an exciting youngster from the lower leagues. We're pathetic.

captainhaircut Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 If we'd went for Rickie Lambert 4 years ago, everyone would have been saying the same. In fact, I think a lot were when we were linked with him after the Carroll sale. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Si Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Aye the world cup moves the line, so any players that we haven't got across the line will then be further away from the line making it harder to get them across the line. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
