[BUPA] Alan Browne, Preston

[Alf-engelos Mindminackers]

Very, very solid box-to-box midfielder who'd supply us with some drive in the middle.

51 appearances last year (including internationals), so certainly no biscuit.

Only 4 goals this year, but 12 the year before that, 7 the year before that.

From what I can find online, contract due to expire 2021. Said to be rated around 3m, and with that contract running down could be worth a punt.

More chance of Along Brown-poo.

 

[Ashley]

Decent player and, bar Colback and Sow (when not injured), is better than what we have (granted, that's not saying much ). I'd take him if he was available for a good price.

is he a modern #2?

 

[RedRobbo]

Where's this from?

Alf.

We've got plenty of proper #2's on the wage bill already.

 

[Heffing Psycho!]

Crackin' plur so he is.

 

[Harvey]

More chance of Alan Bennett, Leeds

More chance of Alan Brown being sacked as manager precipitating the most successful period in the club's history.

Aye. Would be interested to see what Lamouchi could do with him, and how much having an ever-present all-rounder in the middle with some drive would benefit us.

Think him & Colback would be a very nice pairing. Solid, reliable, but also driven too. Bang on for us.

 

[Red bandit]

Yes. But is there any evidence that Forest are actually interested in him ?

Or, is Alf just on a scouting mission for the club?

 

[Ravi]

If Alf is recommending him then he’s probably a fat pub player.

Can we expect more Modesto & Anigo-bashing if we don't sign this bloke then Alf, as has been the case with Marriott, Maddison and that lad at Sheffield Wednesday who's name escapes me?

There might be something in this!

Well it appears we can definitely expect more Alf bashing for no good reason other than trying to chat footy on a footy forum.

f*** it, I'll go back to talking about Carvalho instead.

I thought you were an enthusiastic supporter of beating off, Alf??

To be fair Alf, this does look like you making a stick to beat the club with.
This player may be very happy to stay at his current club and not want to move elsewhere

Only to the paranoid mate.

Simple suggestion, there to be chatted about like how Ash is above. The lads out of contract season end, I think that'd be worth looking at now.

If posters want to stop hearing repetitive stuff about the same players, then allow folk the freedom to talk about other players etc.

But I won't suggest any more, and will go back to talking about Carvalho & Anigo instead if that's what folk want to focus on instead.

 

[Master Yates]

Just seen you mention him in the other thread - I like him so it’s a fair suggestion.

Please don’t spend the next 12 momths saying we should’ve signed him for a make-believe fee though Alf. I couldn’t handle it.

Nothing wrong with putting names forward for discussion. But history tells us you’ll be hammering the club for not signing him when the clubs signing fails.

Unfair Tim.

My suggestions of players the club could have signed instead of the shit they did were initially only put forward in response to questions like "yeah, but who could we have signed instead?"

Did I take the piss ramming the point home? Yep, coz - like above - posters take the piss first. So I just took the piss back.

In fairness to you Alf, on checking this bloke he does seem to be a decent shout - in contrast to Marriott and Maddison.

 

[Steve Stone's Mullet]

Browne would have been a decent option had we not got Colback. But we don't need another like him. We need a ball mover to slot into one of the two 'deeper' central positions.

I'd say he's way more box-to-box than Colback. 12 goals season before last, wouldn't ever see Colback getting that many.

Sorry you see it as unfair Alf.

I’m just going on your hammering the club for not signing Grosicki or Robinson when realistically we had no chance.

You see these things as black and white when there are other factors at play
