Was interesting to see Brannagan today. Always a player mentioned on here. Could switch play well enough but was sloppy in possession. Didn’t get around the pitch enough. Can tell he’s a good league one player but no better than what we’ve got.

I think we're better than Brannagan now, although I have mentioned him as a player who I think deserves a crack at the Championship. Probably one of the lower down clubs.

He linked us with that Nigerian defender Adjei a month or so ago. Said it was a hefty transfer fee. Leeds were in for him aswell so it could be him with him more likely to be going to Leeds I would imagine.

Yes, could be. Weren’t Leeds favourites for MVE too?

Remember him playing against us and he looked equal to Sheaf as a player at the time. Sheaf has massively improved since then.

Fair few players from Oxford I’d take a punt at. Moore, Brannagan, Goodrham, Negru, O’Donkor. At the right price that is.

Based on their performance in League one. All players have been linked to the champ barring O’Donkor and Negru is being chased by Prem clubs.

Goodrham is a talent. Still only 20 and improving all the time.

Barring O’Donkor? So that must mean he’s not Championship quality then

He’s 19 on track for 20+ games in consecutive seasons at league one level for one of the best clubs in the division. I said these were players I would take a PUNT at, not necessarily players that come in and wreck havoc immediately. O’Donkor would be a Tavares esque signing only he’s done much more than Tav did when we signed him.

A couple of years later Kevin Drinkell was hobbling into Highfield Road for £900k, pretty much £200k per goal during his time with us.

Loved JS but was never convinced by his record in the transfer market.

I’ve called for him to be fair based on his stats this season

Wasn’t particularly impressed, good switch of play, but don’t think he’s good enough after watching him live, albeit one game

although playing in a better team and all that

Says at the bottom of the article looking to move to one of Europe’s top 5 leagues. Would be a coup if we got him.
