Interesting if true. Decent record at a number of clubs since leaving us (and indeed on loan whilst with us).
This is the sort of player that one would hope our league position would help us attract. We're in 2nd, whilst Cardiff (another of his former hunting grounds) have lost more than they've won, conceded more than they've scored, and are more points adrift of us than there are games remaining.
I'd be pleased with this, even as a loan, given we're currently threadbare up top.
In KMac we trust. |  | | |

I don’t know if I’m just batsht crazy saying this, but I’ve read a few ‘he doesn’t suit our style’ posts…
But, we have Leif Davis chucking balls in from the left, Burns on the right… and Moore is 19 feet tall… what’s not to like about this?! |  |

Ever since I’ve heard him mentioned I’ve thought it would be f’king brilliant and a bloody good story if he were to help us get promoted. |  |

I think it's the off the ball element of the game that people have concerns about. On it, I agree with you I think his strengths play into our hands.
Is he mobile enough to press tirelessly even for an hour and really put the pressure on the defenders from the front? I don't know. I won't pretend to have watched much of him. |  |

It's the off the ball and link up play that's more of a worry, he's shown he can be a threat in the penalty area at this level. I've warmed up a little on the idea, watched him play for Bournemouth recently and he showed some good movement as well as being a beast. If the brief is to have at least one option who is proven at this level then there aren't many options out there. |  |

Because too many people are utterly obsessed with the notion that we need to unearth Hirst's long lost twin or we'll be incapable of winning football matches over the next 3 months.
Is he a like for like replacement with the movement of Hirst? No. Is he an immobile donkey incapable of adding value to our side? Also no.
He's a handful, he's proven at this level and he will know Burns & Broadhead from Wales duty. He's perhaps not a long term solution but I would have him on loan in a heartbeat. |  | | |

No idea either, but as a professional footballer I’m saying he’ll have a pretty good level of fitness to carry out a role. | |

Pretty sure Cardiff were said to be Moore's preferred choice (for fairly obvious reasons) if they could get a deal done - would think he'd hold out for them until such a point they can't make the finances work. |  |

The problem is we don't 'chuck balls in'. We cut them back low across the ground. I have my reservations, but I'd be prepared to give the benefit of the doubt. He'd obviously have Broady and Burns to bounce off, off the pitch. |  | | |

It would result in a number of people having to eat a large slice of humble pie after his initial spell with us so we can't possibly entertain that situation arising. |  |

I will never forget how terrible he looked when he came on against Norwich one year.
The ultimate redemption arc if he gets us promoted because in my mind he’s still that bloke who looked absolutely lost up there. |  | | |

We can register as many as we like, but only 5 permitted in a matchday squad I think.
Williams (assuming he comes back)
Travis
Hutchinson
Sarmiento

I’ve watched games where Hirst has failed to control a single ball into him, and been terribly wasteful infront of goal.
Yet we are sitting 2nd.
Moore gives a different dynamic, something teams haven’t necessarily seen us play like, anothe chink in the armour | |

You’re right we don’t chuck balls in…
But with him we could have an opposition defence all ready and eyes on a cut back to Chaplin, when out of nowhere a cross with Moore attacking with his head, catching them out…
Goal 1-0 2-0 3-0 EIEIEIO and all that… | |

He's also a much more willing runner than people give him credit for. The fact he's perhaps been asked to play to certain strengths for Bournemouth doesn't mean he's incapable of adapting a slightly different game for us. He's got some underlying attributes that would be useful to us.
It could of course be paper talk, or our attempt at testing Blackburn's resolve on Gallagher if they think we've moved on. I wouldn't hesitate to bring Moore in on loan for the rest of the season if there's a deal to be done though. | | | |

That’s just it thought isn’t it? We’ve not spent the best part of 2 years perfecting a style of play which our recruitment is massively centred around, chasing targets even after they’ve moved elsewhere because they’re perfect for what we want … only to then sign Moore and sling it to his head all game.
Unless McKenna is prepared to move away from how we play - which is of course possibly given we’re in a promotion battle - then I just can’t see it.
That’s not to say I think Moore is a bad player, as he’s clearly had a good career at both domestic and international level. But it feels to me a signing that would see us move away from what we’ve been so good at these past 2 years. |  |

He’s since played in the euros, World Cup, and the premier league.
So must have improved a tad | |

Whenever I've seen him recently, the guy is an athlete. I don't doubt he's fit, it's whether he can do the pressing job we require at times. That said, Jackson can do that role when it's really needed and there might be other games where it's less integral to our play to have the striker running a nut off. | |
