    He will score plenty in league one imo and Wrexham fans are not the oracle of anything he wouldn?t do as well there as they are a route one side which doesn?t play to his strengths that is the same for any player you wouldn?t put Messi and Salah up front for the old crazy gang would you ?!

    We got a good deal for him and he got a nice wage increase nobody has lost out really other than perhaps Millwall ho could get a large slice of the fee back if he did well at say a Charlton, Bolton or Huddersfield.
    Smiffy posted that maybe he should have to gone to Wrexham - I just said many of their fans didn't want him to go there.

    The thing is Maccas game is not based on pace. His age shouldn't be to detrimental for him as hes a natural goalscorer finding half a yard in congested areas.

    Perhaps he has simply taken it a league too far.
    There are very few "Vardies" out there!
    He's gone from NLN (level 6) to FLC (level 2) in a very short time.

    Swansea would seem to fit Maccas game especially with LW as their manager.

    Yet no interest in the summer from club or head coach. Unless of course part of the deal when LW left is that he couldn?t raid Notts. Wouldn?t stop LW and Swansea taking Macca on loan now though.

    I genuinely don?t think many Championship clubs think Macca is Championship level. Millwall were desperate for goals and took a risk on Macca. It?s not worked out, yet.

    Macca is a great goal scorer but his magic comes from just scoring goals. LW said he didn't want him in the build up play, just at the end banging it in the net. Most teams don't play that way, you can only play that way when dominating possession so his club options were limited. Sunderland were interested but the price tag and his age didn't meet their requirements so never happened. The problem he has now is being out of touch and low on confidence. He probably would jump at the chance to "come home"

    I think L1 could be his level, but even then, he needs to be in a side that plays to his strengths. One that creates a lot of chances and doesn't rely on long balls over the top. I honestly think he won't ever find a better fit than Notts, but what can you do.

    I say it because he said and obviously loved to play football above all else. He's not doing agreat deal of that at Millwall though is he but I guess the ?10k a week softens the blow of not palying football
