Alan Smith is just about the worst player I’ve ever seen in our shirt. Factor in the financials and the number of appearances and he wins that award hands down.

BennyBlanco Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 Another dobber that we somehow got persuaded to take off Man United was Smith. We’ve had a few of them down the years. Looks like the days of us rooting through their bins are well and truly over mind you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the whole place absolutely stunk to high heaven but Butt being the linchpin was arguably the main reason why we were one of the three worst teams in the league in a purely footballing sense. Just dreadful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryanegg Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 I’m on the wind up lads don’t worry😂 the best I remember of Butt was a very brief purple patch and as for Smith, I think his only goal was against either Juve or Sampdoria in a pre-season Friendly?

Whitley mag Posted September 16, 2023 Share Posted September 16, 2023 (edited) If I could sign 2 players at this exact moment to improve us I would say Nico Williams and Manu Kone. I’ve come to the conclusion now I would push Bruno further forward he just doesn’t provide enough protection for back 4. Think if we had a real defensive presence in front of back 4, Howe would also be more inclined to play an attacking left back. Rumours Kone could be available for 20 million in January would be all over that. Edited September 16, 2023 by Whitley mag Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

M1tche Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 I'd love Paqueta here still, but I think a CB and a proper DM are more pressing if money is tight. When Willock is fit we have at least 5 very good CMs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creative attacker - 10/RW 4. Whatever Howe wants (as long as its not another full back) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Spaceman Posted September 17, 2023 Share Posted September 17, 2023 (edited) However, if we do we should 100% be loaning someone out. I just think we'll be looking to shift someone in the summer.

Think Wilson getting another year delays the out and out striker issue til we can go big. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andycap Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 I rate the lad, always looked good against us when we played them good pace technically sound aswell. Has a goal in him good age. He used to play just of the striker for the saints. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
