Will he be able to walk straight into the team and improve it?
Well, we've been crying out for a signing with prem/championship experience, and now we've got one.
I know absolutely nothing about Forshaws, however a question I would really like to hear peoples view's on would be, is Forshaw an improvement on Bridcutt?
Thanks for the reply, I would suggest it is relevant as Bridcutt was supposedly our midfield tough tackling engine, with promotion and PL experiences that we sold for £1 mill as he was surplus to requirements in the summer, but now it appears we have signed a like for like replacement for £2 mill because we are looking for those qualities.
If he is a better player as you suggest then great, if he isn't, then you would have to wonder why we got rid of Bridcutt?
Expect he'll be better than okane.
He might even be able to play 90+minutes without spitting or shoving someone.
does seem to have a rep for missing sitters. He'll fit right in with with some of the squad.
It sort of begs the question about those two decisions - getting rid of Bridcutt and buying Klich - both appear to have been mistakes that have led to us spending more in January to get someone very similar (hopefully better, but that will only be determined in time).
Even if he turns out better, it leaves you asking about the judgement of the people who made the earlier two choices. One out of three wouldn't be that great. Although i guess if the one ends up driving us to promotion, we'll have forgotten about the other two by then!
Overall I thought bridcutt was a bit disappointing to be honest and wonder if his wages had something to do with it? Him going I mean.
Would liked to have seen klich play a bit more assuming he will be going on loan.
Think forshaw is an excellent addition and better than both I hope.
We need another forward, love ekuban's desire and commitment but that injury is blighting his season. Lassonga looks so fecking unfit and at the moment clueless. After a good start he's done feck all except take up a shirt.
