Re: Bluebirds transfer rumours
It feels like we have plenty of midfield and attacking options - too many, if anything - just not centre forwards.

Also need to move out Collins , Harris and Phillips
Be shocked if Harris goes but Collins and Phillips will be inevitable I'd presume.

We have to bring a couple of strikers in surely and hopefully a centre half too

3 years seems a long contract but it mightve been what convinced him as apparently considerable other interest. If he gets his head down and works hard could be a real good signing.
Think O'Dowda, Tanner and now Ojo suggests that Steve Morison wants a combination of pace and power from any winger types he uses - Ojo was a frustrating mix for us in 20/21, but the same could be said of Wilson to a degree and I think you have to concede that we've been a tough team for players like them to prosper in during the last few seasons.

Harris will be quite a way down the pecking order if Ojo plays as a number 10 or second striker (unless Isaak Davies has a long-term injury).

5 goals and 7 assists for us when he was here wasn't too bad

James Collins to Derby, possibly today on a free transfer. 2 year deal mentioned by the media reports.
Re: Bluebirds transfer rumours
Good news, he isn't a Championship standard player, hopefully this means we have a new striker coming in
I'm waiting on CcfcWelshlad to confirm 🤔

I like to think I’m one of the more optimistic supporters on here but my god watching him turn and run into the box against Cambridge was agonising. He moves like an aircraft carrier.

Yeah he doesn't move like an athlete, kind of plods around.
He's not a terrible player though.

Bluetit slagged him off before he signed and is too stubborn to ever change his opinion.
Good signing on a free imo.
I’d never heard of him until he signed, I started slagging him off because of his lack of positional sense and the defensive side of his game.
He cost us no end of goals by not tracking back
Re: Bluebirds transfer rumours
If as a 26 year old, he has suddenly become a more all round footballer and team player, I’ll be the first to congratulate him, but he’s done nothing of note in his career.
I wait with bated breath for this rejuvenated player

If Collins goes Harris will be one of the few strikers at the club

I wonder if being with a new club permanently instead of bouncing around on loan will make a difference.

He's 25 until he's 26, that's how it works
