Im guessing he is a Centre Mid, as we only play with central midfielders.

 

[skybluereeve]

Is it a signing we need??? Very strange

Depends if he's better than what we've got.

MF/DM after reading on the scunthorpe forums. Plays some wonder balls 50% of the time, the other 50% are terrible passes putting us under pressure.

Sounds like a young Sammy Clingan. Although Sammy is probably more 20 / 80% on this seasons showings!

But still a 100% better than Clingan*.

*not actually sure what I'm talking about here and whether my percentages make sense.

And that's being kind!

Can't recall if i read it in the telegraph , or if it was on the radio but it kind of hinted that as he hadn't had chance to train with the team, Bell would probably get the nod for a midfield place. Now i thought Bell had a good half against Boro at home, but in my view, if we are going to get someone on loan from a team like Man Utd, you play them every game. Has to be better than most of the players (if not all) in our squad.

I was being extremely kind

Where does Norwood play ? ..........Anywhere that AT puts him. Judging from where we played Gardner probably not in his preferred position

 

[oakey]

Easy to deduce...do a count today...how many of Sammy's passes to teammate..or not. Bet it is more like 80/20
Only fair to do the same for all our players though.

 

[Otis]

Bet 80% of his passes are sideways or backwards in own own half.

David Batty made a career out of making a higher % than that!

 

[Nonleagueherewecome]

Another thread turns into a chance to have a go at Sammy?

 

[kingharvest]

If those 80% that are sideways go to a cov player then it's fine. It's good to have someone playing that role in the team. It only works though if the other players are the ones we rely on to 'make things happen'.

Well Norwood is behind Sammy for a NI place, and maybe if Sammy's cracking effort had gone in on Tues, people who once hailed him as irreplaceable in our squad would cut him a bit of slack? He's easily our best passer.
