I think people are over reacting when they say we dont get enough goals from Midfield because looking at other Championship teams they dont rely on goals from midfield

I think that analysing most teams challenging they have 2 main sources of goal scorers. And then goals are spread out across the rest of the team, the only part we’ve been lacking is that second main source which probably could have been Godden, but I think next season we will need a couple of new Strikers

In my opinion our midfield needs seriously looking at in the summer how it’s set-up and individually, one at a time they are all okay collectively I question it.

I think Sheaf and Hamer work very well together.

The big concern in the summer is keeping either or both of them.

We're not scoring enough full stop.
We're something like joint 6th lowest scorers, with our defence being joint 5th for least goals conceded, so it's clear where the problems lie

Big difference is that they've all got well over 11 different scorers whereas we've only got 9

But they can get dominated they did for a while after we scored our first goal yesterday, this isn’t criticism of either individually by the way imo opinion we need someone else there too, not convinced it’s Palmer, off the bench yes.

One of the summer recruitments will clearly be an upgrade on Kelly. This would then give potentially Hamer Sheaf Allen Eccles and another for those positions.

The way we set up?

We’ve never been free scoring under Robins. We set up to be tight at the back and win by the odd goal.

He’s a year left on his contract - I mean in the summer - how can we keep him and then he walks for free?

If you are Hamer with a year on your contract are you extending? Surely he will want to go higher and we would have to sell

As he should be. We can’t afford the cost of the types of contracts needed to keep our stars on our current revenue and the plan always has to be to sell them at the peak and reinvest. I’d have no issues with Vik and Hamer going and providing enough to build a proper squad with lots of potential talent.

I would. Love watching him play, just stick him in the back garden with a football.

I think we have more chance of extending Hamer than Gyokeres, but sadly I still think he will get a decent move. Maybe Burnley going up, or one of the prem clubs coming down.

Top end championship, Scottish club, relegated premier club - won’t command a massive fee

Bizarre question. Plenty of teams I'm sure.

Interesting stats, does look like we are missing another striker. Then it feels like it's only recently the midfield have started scoring more.

Let's not forget football exists outside of Great Britain too.

I think so too. Hope he doesn’t end up in Scotland, shame to see good players wasted up there.

Surprised to see that relegation-threatened PL teams might be in the mix too:

So you honestly think hamer could be on Everton or Leeds radar? Is this a joke?

Hamer would definitely interest some of the lower premier League sides and newly promoted teams

doubt it - couldn’t see for example getting into Norwich or Burnley’s team - interesting what fee we get for him - certainly won’t be £15m

He makes such a difference to our attacking play. What a guy.
