Could be a long second half of the season...

Good as he undoubtedly is no one is going to pay £ 1 million for him... are they??

People were saying similar before the start of the season..... Hasn't turned out too badly so far! As hard as it may be sometimes, keep the faith, bud.

I certainly wouldnt put him in the same class as Danny Danny Ward...

Admittedly I don't make it to many games these days, due to Saturday football of my own, so I could well be talking out of my arse (Not for the first time!), but I'd be more worried about losing Mason, who I feel/hear has been instrumental this season, and has certainly been missed when injured. Whereas I'm more than happy with our attacking options of N'Guessan, Ajose, Mason and Ranger, although of course the latter hasn't been on the scene much of late, and may not be in the near future.

This is where I'm informed that Mason is infact not all that great and/or is off in January.......................................... :)

Mason has been very good. But he's been injured a fair bit too, so while he's been instrumental in some games its certainly not all of them!

More concerned about our front line at the moment. Could lose Ajose and Ranger. El Gabbas hasn't blown me away and NGuessoan can't do it on his own.

Will need to replace Pritchard too. Not got anyone else for that role.

Fair enough. Where has Pritchard been played? I assumed with Ranger up top then N'Guessan and Ajose supporting, with Luongo, Mason and Kasim in the centre - That would cover the loss of Pritchard. Obviously, as you rightly say, the futures of Ranger and Ajose could lie elsewhere, so they'd need to be replaced.

Looking forward to Tijane coming back. Anyone have an opinion of him (footballing wise........), in the little that he's played?

I was just thinking, if Tijane settles and gets a run of games, in the brief glimpse I saw of him he could step in for Pritchard.

Showed flashes of real skill opening day at Peterborough. As Sutton says, if he gets and stays fit, could be a good replacement for Pritchard if needs be

I can't see it being anywhere near half that to be honest.

If that's correct, maybe we would use the money we are going to get for Wes (if he goes) to sign Pritchard? Sounds unlikely I know but I don't think anyone would have seen us using the proceeds of the Flint (and maybe Collins) sale to sign Luongo.

If anybody from Huddersfield was at the game yesterday they wouldn`t have been that impressed ....whilst he has a certain amount of skill unfortunately he is too short for the Championship...which means a life in League 1 so I think he will stay with us...better to be a classy player amongst a bunch where you stand out as opposed to a short arse in a team of less vertically challenged skill full players..... :pint:

He still has to learn when to release and when not to.  He's young, bound to take a bit of time.

For someone with such a good free kick why are his corners so rubbish!!

There were a number of scouts sat right by us in the Arkells, couldn't say for sure who they were watching, but they did seem to be making notes when Pritchard was involved, so I guess it was him.

We'll see if me and my friends plan of loudly speculating that Pritchard 'wasn't ready for the Championship' and claiming to be 'amazed no one has come in for Agombar' pays dividends. I suspect not
