One for Wales, one for England and one for don't know
Its a d1ck move, and the ruins this board and is the worst kind of attention seeking, you were actually participating in the other thread which flabbergasts me.calm down there, the other thread was about "will Burnley buy Moore to replace wood" , and this one was about " who would you want to replace Moore with if he goes"
slightly different?
anyway there isn't a ****ing limit on Kieffer moore threads, I'm sure the board can support 2 FFS.
Its easy to avoid threads not of interest or annoying posters but creating more threads which drive down others from the front page is a pain. I can understand when threads deteriorate but no excuses for you to start a new one.
Spot on! Let's wise up, it goes in his back pocket.
The man has kept this club running for ten years, spending well over £150m of his own money in the process and yet still there are people making snide remarks about how he spends his own money. I think it isn't Tan that needs to ‘wise up’.
Running it pretty badly then….
Imagine he signs for them, gets relegated and then he's playing in the Championship but living in Burnley
on premier League wages though
Yeah fair point, but still
Try and get loan in, don’t waste any reinvestment in January with a manager we might not be keeping.
yeah that's a fair point.
if there's any good prospects suddenly available, like Panzo then hopefully we still go for them though
Makes sense.
if he leaves...any of the names you lot come up with won't be his replacement 100%
If only we hadn't spunked all our money on shite
If I was Tan I'd keep the money until Sala case is concluded.
It is naive to think that the money would be going anywhere other than Uncle Vinnie's pocket.
As the creator of the other thread I'll allow it.
He's run us to the ground and left us on the precipice. He's got loads of money and if he's not prepared to spend it he should make way for someone else who will.
Are you satisfied now David or is this Mehmet talking?
I think it would be a big loss.
We are so much better when he plays, occasionally makes goals from nothing. I don't think he's been disinterested at all this season, a little unfortunate with injuries and illness and clearly we don't make as many chances as in seasons gone by, but he would be a huge loss for me.
Kieffer leaving and no adequate replacement and we are in serious trouble. (If we arent anyway)
I don’t think either of those claims are true. Moore has started 10 of City’s 13 Championship defeats this season and appeared as a sub in the other three.
As regards scoring goals out of nothing, he’s a striker who very rarely does that.
Very astute observation, there. The substitute appearances are worth a second glance, too.
West Brom (h) - 2-0 down when Moore came on. Lost 4-0.
Middlesbrough (h) - 1-0 down when Moore came on. Lost 2-0.
Sheff Utd (h) - 1-1 when Moore came on. Lost 3-2.
His other 3 substitute appearances were as follows:
Barnsley (h) - 1-1 when Moore came on. Finished 1-1
Blackpool (a) - 1-0 up when Moore came on. Won 2-0, Moore scored.
Peterborough (a) - 2-0 down when Moore came on. Drew 2-2.
It would suggest his substitute appearances have rarely amounted to much. The Peterborough recovery was as much down to their manager taking off their two most dangerous attackers and Flint being able to head in a couple of goals.
On the two occasions where Moore hasn't been a part of the squad, we've won (at Preston) and drawn (with West Brom).
Are we so much better when Moore plays, as Rjk claims? I don't see it. Statistically there's little to back it up, either.
yeah it doesn't seem to stack up with the results, I'm just going on what I've seen this season.
if I was an opposition manager I'd certainly prefer to see Collins or Harris lining up instead of Moore
City wins this season:
Blackpool 0-2 Cardiff. Moore started on the bench, settled it with a header.
Cardiff 3-1 Milwall. Moore started and played 90 minutes.
Forest 1-2 Cardiff. Moore came on after 56 mins at 1-0 down. Colwill scores 2. Moore gets both assists and hits the post.
Cardiff 2-1 Huddersfield. Moore scores both
Preston 1-2 Cardiff. Moore didn't play.
Luton 1-2 Cardiff. Moore played the full 90.
God, it's been a crap season. Moore at his best, is not only our best player but our most important one. Sadly, this season, that has been rare! I still think the above shows he's pretty important, we've won 1 game without him.
No way Pedro. He's played 15 times this season which means he's been on the losing side 10 times and not on the park for 1 of our 6 wins and no assists or a goal for 1 of them (the Millwall match where Flint scored 2).
At his best - that's the key issue. From what I've seen (which has been plenty), Moore's normally been some way short of his best in a City shirt this season. He's missed some sitters, he's looked well off the pace at times and he's also seemed to have become more fragile - not only being unfit, but going to ground more often and more easily. There could be any number of reasons for that, but he isn't looking the player he was last season, that's for sure.
Picking up on something Rjk said earlier, Moore has never struck me as the kind of player who creates goals out of nothing. Strikers like Earnshaw, Bothroyd and Chopra used to do that for City with reasonable frequency, but Moore seems to very much depend on decent service. He hasn't been getting too much of that this season, but as I said above he has missed a good number of straightforward chances. Five goals after 24 games is a poor return and it's not just down to a lack of service.
