We could play him in a front two alongside Jatta, with McG behind. Alternatively, he could battle it out with Jatta for the starting role.Quote:

Do we want to spend 3,4 or 5k a week for him only to be on the pitch for 20 minutes?Quote:

Do all fans obsess about former players like we do ? It's ridiculous. The guy has moved on, we have moved on. Even if he gets a loan how does coming back to Meadow Lane help his development with his new club ? Can you think of any other newly signed Championship striker who would be touted for a loan in L2 ? If he doesn't fit for the new Millwall management team they will sell him or get his substantial wages paid somewhere, not Notts.
Very true. For this reason, I'd rather take a shot on that young striker at Solihull as backup for Jatta. I'd take Macca if we can get a loan deal whereby we only pay roughly what we were paying him before, but I can't see that happening.Quote:

We could be looking dosnthe wrong rod here
It coud be we are looking at Kion Etete.
Etete has been out injured since last March with hamstring then groin injuries came back in the cup tie at Sheffield Utd played first halfQuote:

ML's days at Notts are gone.
Must be him then, with that CV 🤔Quote:

A victim of the style of play at Millwall no creative football and wouldn't do well at Wrexham either playing hoofball!
We're watching some good football at the moment which is working well for Didzy and AJ.
Macca wouldn't want to sit on the bench and anyway not VFM in financial terms.
Notts need a third back up striker whoever ticks the boxes but IMO it shouldn't be Etete.
