Looking at his stats he’s a striker who doesn’t score much. We already have enough of those. | |

Bradford he was decent to be fair. At 27 it's an interesting one as he's got a few years left but isn't likely to be a massive coup for the long term. He could well get us out of this division, I just don't see how we address the lack of creativity and the gaps in defence beyond Chambers, KVY and Woolfenden yet. A frontline of him and Norwood would be one for the purists! | |

Sheffield United have a forward that hasn't scored a league goal all season but he starts every week and their fans love him. Football should never be about stats | |

While I agree with your general point I think you've gone over the top in saying football should "never" be about stats. Statistics are a very useful tool when used correctly. | | | |

Are you mad? Football stats make football interesting when the action stops. And you quote them all the time - as in "Sheffield Utd have a forward........" | |

Well, as we're changing our nickname from The Tractor Boys to The Lower League Plodders, he'll fit right in. | |

11 in 60 is pretty awful for any forward player. Its not even particularly good for a midfielder. | |

It is. But he had a good strike rate at Carlisle and Bradford and arguably has more pedigree at this level than Norwood. | | | |
Town interested in Charlie Wyke from Sunderland... on 13:58 - Jul 6 with 1536 views | monty_radio | Though, until Suinderland got their hands on him his record from age 22 onwards at Carlisle then Bradford reads: played 133 goals 54 - not quite so shabby. He may, of course, never recover that streak, but, at a low cost, he could prove be a good risk. | |

Possibly. Though looking more closely- he had two years at carlise and got about 36 in that time- 18 a year. Not a bad record. 71 apps and 13 as sub. Bradford- in 18 months, 22 goals from 54. Okayish perhaps as a second striker. But he's 27. In his entire career he has managed 3 and a bit decent years... | |

Only as filler. There's no way he'd get in ahead of Norwood or Jackson imo. Norwood's got a lot more goals in him, Jackson's more mobile, football intelligent and useful as a foil (and has more goals in him too). | |

He'd be a very useful battering ram to bring off the bench, start in particular games where the defence need a lot of time on the ball or as an auxiliary winger against a particularly physically weak full back. F*ck it, I'm starting a re-sign Nouble campaign. CL4CK. [Post edited 6 Jul 2020 14:51]

What we'd do for a midfielder with that kind of hit rate! | |

All quite true - though a genuine hold-up player might offer us a little more than his stats suggest. Murphy's overall stats aren't great either, especially if one excludes the 27 goal season. | |
