SS3Canary 0 Posted January 9, 2012 Has this lad been mentioned before? He''s the silent assassin of the Championship and scored another impressive brace at Fleetwood on Saturday. Not an obvious signing so I wouldn''t have thought we''d have much competition should we table a bid. I''d certainly take him over Snodgrass. Fits the Lambert mould. Thoughts?

Row D Seat 7 0 Posted January 9, 2012 Scored a cracker at Fleetwood, but also gave the ball away when they scored. I don''t think he''s for us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SnakepitCanary 0 Posted January 9, 2012 He''s been mentioned before and we have been linked with him before. I think he''s absolutely quality and I''d prefer him to Snodgrass. He''d cost a fair amount I imagine though, like everyone does in this window. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GJP 79 Posted January 9, 2012 A very talented and exciting young player. Expect he''ll go on to play for a much bigger club than Blackpool (would be nice if it''s us). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SS3Canary 0 Posted January 9, 2012 From what I''ve seen of him he seems to tick all the boxes. Stocky, pacey, two-footed, great sense of gravity, and can clearly finish. Could see him slotting in nicely in a three-pronged attack. I don''t think Snodgrass offers us anything better than that what we''ve already got. If we''re sniffing around Leeds then surely go for Howson. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KeelansGlove 0 Posted January 9, 2012 Personally i would think he might tick alot of the boxes for us and is likely to be much cheaper than Jordan Rhodes but then again he hasnt got Rhodes record.Given that Jackson is starting to score and hopefully Vaughan will be back before too long i''d think a couple of million is the most we are likely to pay for a further striker to offer something different.

Darren Lamb 0 Posted January 9, 2012 Yeah I like the look of Phillips too, remember some one here suggesting him before he went to Blackpool. Anyone know why he spent the first part of the season on loan at Sheffield United though, seemed a bit strange to me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reminds me of a young Stan Collymore the way he plays the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Canary_on_the Trent 0 Posted January 9, 2012 Definitely somebody Lambert will be looking at, he''s; Quick, direct & scores goals. Potentially a very good player and will provide real competition to Bennett & Pilkington out-wide. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
