JamboAndrew Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Big step up to be signing a guy who has previously gone for £3m. Very happy with signings so far. He has to do it on the pitch though and will get my support all the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Dan Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Let’s set the Heather alight Conor “Washington previously played for Queens Park Rangers, Peterborough, Newport County and St Ives Town. He joined Sheffield United on a one-year deal last August and made 16 appearances without scoring. His record at QPR was 14 goals in 98 outings and he scored 33 times in 94 games during two years at Peterborough.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwidoug Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 I'm just a wee bit minusculy concerned that neither of them, CW and JW scored a club goal last season.

johnthomas Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 2 hours ago, AlphonseCapone said: I just think he has the attributes to be very successful. Physically he's an absolute machine, but beyond that as you say his work rate and attitude are fantastic. There's been many a player over the years who haven't been technically gifted that have had very successful careers because they've had that attitude and work rate (apologies for the example but Scott Brown, arguably the least technically gifted of that lot that came through at Hibs and arguably the most successful). I also think he has more technical skill than he gets credit for, he's a good touch for a big man and there are many times he's picked the ball up on the half way line and got us up the other end of the park winning a throw in or corner which is vital at times, especially under the cosh. Don't get me wrong, he's very much a work in progress, he holds onto the ball too long and his decision making can be lacking at times. I'm not saying he's a guaranteed success but I think he has the hardest parts of being successful already ingrained (hard work, good attitude, desire and listens), and the technical and footballing aspects can be developed in the right environment. All imo of course. Yes he shows a lot of skill at times . Hard to understand why people say he has no skill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martoon Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Very happy with this.
