Lochwood Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Wasn’t meaning Murphy who you could see was a class player in his day, I meant the big striker and think we even tried him at centre half, hopeless, hope this boys not another one of him, agree with the posters this is weird the higher rated of the two not coming or maybe he didn’t fancy us? Is more like it. Obviously he is getting let go by Ipswich so costs nothing to try. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps he didn't fancy the club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 17, 2020 Share Posted January 17, 2020 Despite all my moaning, this is a decent write up and he may indeed be exactly the type of striker we've been crying out for. https://www.eadt.co.uk/sport/ipswich-town-striker-aaron-drinan-feature-1-6443715 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted January 17, 2020 Author Share Posted January 17, 2020 Surely Doolan must be away, we don't need four strikers Technically we’ve got five now if you count McKenzie although I’d like him to be loaned out but yes we’re a bit heavy up front now considering we only play one striker at a time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if he doesnt play, he's still picking up a full time wage every week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you strip out the loan players, untried youth players and crocks it doesn't make for very encouraging reading as regards current strength in depth or future planning.......... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D'Jaffo Posted January 17, 2020 Author Share Posted January 17, 2020 Fair enough. Any other deals close? Badly need a CM and CB? We really need 2 CM and a CB. I don’t blame Kerr for bringing in a striker as our options aren’t exactly great but we at least had options there. If we don’t get rid of Doolan it makes this signing all the more bizarre. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as we need quality, we also need depth. An extra body at or close to a similar level could be vital later in the season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take out Skeock he is out on loan , Murphy now plays wide left Mid , Moffat classes as a midfielder now , Doolan very limited game time recently, I believe we did need the Ipswich signing for cover ( going by training he is ready to play ) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
