    A bit or organising and encouraging would be a start, calling out who needs to press. Get his set pieces can't be a lot worse either, get him and on!

    Throughout his career, he's averaged a goal every 11 games. I'd hardly say that's prolific.

    It’s hard when you only get 21% possession…

    Is that some kind of a record ?

    Still a better average than some of our "strikers"

    For what's it's worth, yes I'd take him.

    But we don't call the shots. He's an OAP according to our club policies

    Heck no. We aren't that desperate just yet. There is a reason he's without a club.

    I think that was more to do with how **** our passing was and how feeble on the ball we are .
    Swansea are a possession based team but I bet even they couldn’t believe how easy it was to get the ball off us .

    Haha, not at all. I just don't get the hype. He was good for us, 10 years ago.

    If he'd never played for us before, we wouldn't even be discussing bringing him to the club.

    Investing time in someone like Herbie Kane would be much more beneficial to our chances of survival than bringing in a player who's career has been in steady decline over the last 4 years, in my opinion.

    It's not just our club though. I don't know the statistics, but I bet the number of players over the age of 30 without a club has increased drastically over the last few years, particularly players from the top 2 divisions I reckon.

    Haha, it does look like I have a personal vendetta against Jacob

    I promise, I haven't. I met him when he was at Oakwell, and he seemed a sound lad.
