Jesus he has got 14 (13? BBC cannot decide) goals playing as the secondary striker, what more do people want?
Yep. Fussy gits  |

I sort of put him in the Alex Revell category. I thought he worked hard for us, but didn't score lots. But then came back to haunt us when he played for EVERYONE else.
He's scored 14 goals from predominantly left wing...… The very few games he's played up front he's scored in.. |

Your missing the questions I asked.
Would he do well in League 1?
Is he worth paying a big fee?
Just because we are top, players can be criticised. He has scored 14 goals, and 4 match winners. He has been a really important player this season no doubt.
Now he was totally invisible last night, put numerous passes out of play and didn't have a shot.
I dont dislike the lad, he is only 23 so you would think he could only get better. Based on form i think he should be replaced in the starting 11.

Also, my comparison with Revell was meant to focus on the 'works hard' for the team. Revell proved he could score goals for other teams (just not for us).
Would he be good enough for League 1? I certainly think he's worth a punt.

You’ve laid into Yates in this thread and Admiral on another. Good job we’re having a decent season! |

 I've laid into them. Yh alright. Because we are having a decent season every player is immune from any criticism at all. Logic |

I've been extremely happy with Yates. Never stops running, available for the ball, scores goals, plays in whatever person Wellens needs him to. I'd be delighted if we signed him next season. He needs a better chant, mind.

Yates > Woolery > Hope.
I would say Yates in undroppable, yes.
Every player has an off day and yesterday was one for Yates, be he was marked very closely all game and had to drop deep to get the ball 1st half. 2nd half he was better.

Yates has shown that he has what it takes throughout much of the season. A temporary blip in form (and it's not even a huge blip) does not change that.
I'd be very happy to see him here next season, regardless of which league we are in.

I asked the questions to hear opinions on what other people thought of Yates- not to be hounded for what seemingly seems no else agrees which is more than fine with me. I know his intensity is important to our style of pressing of the forward line and he certainly does that in abundance.
It would probably take £200-£300k+ at a complete guess to sign permanent?

I would risk £200k on Yates, yes, not a lot more though, yet.
I would like him tied down to us next season too no matter if we are L2 or L1.

Am I right in thinking he's out of contract in June? In which case we would potentially be looking at a tribunal, assuming Rovrum offer him a contract. |
