JP Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Downing, Cairney and a CM would be great business IMO. Something like: Shelvey Hayden Ritchie Cairney Downing Gayle Be more than enough to get us promoted. Diame, Atsu and Gouffran as well of course. Again, happy with the names we're being linked with.

Leazes_End_Mag Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Christ not Downing man. This The grief Ritchie gets, he's a f*** load better than Stuart Downing. Downing plays LW so would be competing with Gouffran immediatley, of who he's far better than. A 6 month loan and letting him compete with Atsu/Ritchie/Gouff for the out wide slot would be more positive than negative IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give me some names then. If it's out of him and Osborn from Forest then i'd rather take Downing on loan for 6 months. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Altamullan Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 push the boat out & sign that Knockout bloke from Brighton man Can't see it, unfortunately. He's had a couple of family tradegies recently and looked as if he really appreciated how the club/his team mates rallied around (must increase his commitment). Plus they are as likely to be promoted. That said, I am sure we could offer a better contract would be seen as a better long-term option. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ikon Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Knockaert is a good player tbh. But he would cost far more than he is good as a player if you know what I mean.

I'm maybe overthinking it anyway - I just want a left winger who is clearly above almost everyone else in the division on the level of Knockaert 'cos I'm greedy. We could do that imo, but a 6-month loan of someone like Downing is probably more in line with our thinking, I agree. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
