HertsCanary93 223 Posted June 29, 2019 Can't say I know anything about him, but they seem to be gutted on the pne forums. Sounds like they were hoping for double figures. Usually a good sign! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lake district canary 4,830 Posted June 29, 2019 Interesting player. An improving player, scored 12 goals in 27 matches last season, which is pretty good. As much as anything it is probably his character that stands out as being seen as a good fit for us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 4,615 Posted June 29, 2019 Seems a bit of an unexpected one. More of a left winger than a striker. Does this mean he'd be third choice centre forward and fourth choice winger? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Last season there was always someone available out wide, not always a wide player - so it isn't a surpise we are looking at players who can play anywhere around the pitch. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It seems to me like it could be: Pukki > Drmic > Robinson Buendia > Hernandez > Roberts > Robinson What does this mean for Cantwell? Does this mean Cantwell would be seen as an option for a central role, assuming he stays? This is also assuming that Robinson joins, of course... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If that is the case, that he can play out wide as well, then the move makes even more sense than simply him being a better striker than Srbeny, which I assume he is anyway. There seems to be a consensus among Preston fans that 6m seriously undervalues him, which it probably does, the market being what it is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redders Right Foot 22 Posted June 29, 2019 PNE have tweeted they have had no bids for any of their players. - 16 mins ago. As for the list in striker order - my thoughts on him being 2nd-3rd is we basically have no idea how Drmic will turn out. We all have big hopes for him, but nothing guaranteed. And Cantwell - for me I just don't think he looks fully comfortable out wide. I'd expect him to be central and or go out on loan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Icecream Snow 777 Posted June 29, 2019 Smacks of an agent hawking his player around. Sounds like he's in the final year of his contract and the agent is trying to start an auction or get him a better deal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hmm? Claims by who and made where? We've made one permanent (first team)signing ffs 😂. And he's not even here yet because its still june! I would be suprised and extremely if drmic came here with the thought of being happy playing in the championship.
