Latest rumour - Martyn Waghorn

https://www.footballinsider247.com/sour ... e-waghorn/

I mean, I would prefer him over the guy from Accrington.

Free transfer for a start - instead of minimum £1.5mill
Proven at Championship level
30 goals in 123 appearances either at Championship/Premiership/Scottish Premiership

Do I think that he would be a good signing? He would be an improvement on Vassell & Harris IMO so yes worth a go if wages aren't too high

Would be a decent signing, however not sure how wise it’d be if we’re cost cutting. Maybe the wages would be better spent elsewhere

Like Waghorn,is a decent player at this level but not sure we need him with Moore and Collins. That said if we can get him on a free would be a decent squad player.

Depends on the formation McCarthy intends playing next season.

Last season he had to play the system that fitted the players he inherited, next season he may want to go with two strikers, in which case we're going to need 3/4 strikers with plenty of Championship experience.

Interesting. I'm surprised they seem to be doing business now, I'm hoping that means they are determined to hold onto Moore. Otherwise you'd think they would be holding off to see what sort of money they have to play with. I'm probably over thinking this !!

I remember the scenes when Marshall saved Waghorn's penalty in the play off semi final against Leicester all those years ago - he was inconsolable on the pitch that evening but to be fair to him he was only a youngster at the time and at least his penalty was a decent one forcing Marshall to make a decent save.

It was the Kermagant penalty for them which truly cost them that game rather than Waghorn's effort.

Moore and Collins with Waghorn as back up would be a handful for most sides but could be that the see Moore going as a given and want Waghorn and Collins to fight over the main striker role.

Waghorn is more of a winger striker so he would probably play where Harry Wilson did for us. Great set pieces as well which might provide a few goals.

I don't see Collins as any more than back up to Kieffer Moore

i would be delighted if he came to us.

As long as he’s free, stays fit, comes off the bench and chips in with a goal or assist i’m happy

I’d be more than happy with this. He’s the sort of player who I think would do well. Good attitude too. I don’t see him as a replacement for Moore. It looks as though MM will try to move on other strikers either through sale or loaning out. Moore, Collins and Waghorn would provide decent quality and competition

Not a bad replacement for HW - obviously not like for like though

Can he play behind the strikers in a Tomlin like role?

We could have Moore & Collins upfront and Waghorn just sitting behind them

Im still holding out hope for Moore & FREE AGENT Diedou upfront with Waghorn behind them

I think that would be the limit of his contribution. A good impact sub when the game is stretched.
