Kieffer Moore 12:26 - Aug 29 with 5777 views | BiGDonnie | I've just read on Skysports the he may be allowed to move on. I'd take him in a heartbeat, not sure if we could afford him... Him and Hirst rotating would be perfect IMO. [Post edited 29 Aug 2023 12:29]

This. Moore is by no means a pressing forward whatsoever, he'd be a very poor stylistic fit. |  | |  |

Maybe not, but he's definitely got the physicality and finishing (head and feet) that we're looking for. One might say he even has unfinished business... |  |

I'd take him, holds the ball up really well as a target man but can also run the channels as he has done for Bournemouth for several years, mainly from the bench. Could be a brilliant foil for our players just behind. |  |

Kieffer Moore on 13:52 - Aug 29 with 3955 views | Kieran_Knows | Yeah, because we’d change our whole style of play to accommodate Moore. No thanks. |  |

Kieffer Moore on 14:10 - Aug 29 with 3825 views | ChampionsofInnsbruck | His 40-odd Championship goals are nothing to be sniffed at, but he's only scored a handful of goals total over the last 4 seasons, so maybe one who maybe has now passed their chance? He's 31-32 isn't he? |  | |  |
Kieffer Moore on 11:15 - Aug 30 with 3250 views | WeWereZombies | I suppose there is an argument that he would link well with Broadhead and Burns too as they will have worked together in the Wales squad. He has just turned 31 by the way, for those asking the question earlier in the thread: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kieffer_Moore |  |

but it may enable a stiker to get on the end of one of Burns's sir alf stand crosses..... Would we need much of a style change tho? is his movement any weaker than ladapo's? |  |

You're going to struggle with us being top half in the Championship in that case. |  |

Kieffer Moore on 11:32 - Aug 30 with 3141 views | BloomBlue | Get him in. He has scored at Championship, Prem and international level, he will score loads in this team. KM will work on him running into the channels. Remember in Hirst's first few games 'running the channel' hardly happened, KM and the coaches quickly worked on him and improved him, they can do the same with Moore |  | |  |

Well we’re trying to recruit a similar striker to Hirst as they clearly don’t feel Ladapo had the mobility that Hirst does … Moore has even less mobility than Ladapo ffs. |  |

It's becoming increasingly obvious that Ladapo isn't what McKenna wants stylistically at this level though, so that's not really a benchmark! |  | |  |

Haha, don't think so. Literally saw he was available and that I'd take him. I've been shot down by the professionals football geniuses though. |  |

Not sure he fits the McK mould though, regarding age and mobility. |  |
|  |
Kieffer Moore on 11:49 - Aug 30 with 2980 views | southnorfolkblue | Jamal Lowe is in the same boat apparently. I’d rather have him as an alternative to the likes of Burns and Broadhead. Not convinced KM is mobile enough to play in our side |  |

Not shot down BD, it’s just opinions. And while I agree with you on many things it’s a no from me on Mr Moore. Really done well in his career though. I never thought he’d achieve what he has. |  | |  |

Yup. Went to the world cup after we sold him for peanuts. Classic ME stuff. |  |

Top half of the Championship you say? Some achievement that…in 6 years. May one suggest you have greater ambition in life? |  | |  |

I imagine that our aspiration for this season is likely to be top half, challenging for top 6 of possible. So basically back to where we were for all bar one of MM's seasons here. I'm worried that might be triggering for you. |  |

To be fair. He only looked any good when he played for Rotherham in L1 on loan, whenever he played for us, he looked guff. Then he went to Barnsley and played like he had been at Rotherham. Some players, just don't play well at certain clubs. |  |
