Marc Pugh

[OSRGull]

Been told by a mate that apparently us and Burnley have enquired about him, anyone else heard this?

Obviously not the 'spectacular' signing but would he be a good addition?

I'm not sure myself.

 

[misterspatch]

he's just rejected a contract extension at bournemouth, wouldn't be too shabby

 

[albion534]

Who?

 

[making plans for nigel]

Has he played champions league or even championship ?

Hows Ross McCormack settling in ?

 

[nevergoagain]

It's on the rumours site so unlikely.

[Mackenzie]

Yep, I just read that on football rumours too.

 

[pasty]

Never heard of him. But then I'd never heard of Vicente or Bruno either

 

[Foolg]

Tricky little winger, from what I've seen (5 or 6 games that's all), puts a decent ball in the box but also takes a few penalties (thus the decent goalscoring record).

Don't think he'd be a stand out player in this league, but would be a solid addition. Most liken him to Noone, so maybe Cardiff are coming back in for him....

 

[severnside gull]

Wasn't outstanding at Shrewsbury or at Kidderminster before that - I saw him play for both. Seemed to develop at Hereford and has had a good couple of seasons at Bournemouth. I have an idea he has gone from being a rather ordinary winger to a useful central midfielder but I haven't seen him play for Bournemouth - they seem to churn out players who promise to do well at a higher level but dont actually make it (Pitman, Bartley, McQuoid........). Not sure he adds anything and would be competing (presumably) with the likes of Dicker, Harley, Sparrow or even Noone and LuaLua - can't see him being in that league and at 25 even a late developer should be challenging to compete against the club's best if he is worth bringing in. Could be wrong but I just don't see it.

 

[VICENTE]

I don't think he would be that great down the wing to be honest.

I think we have gone beyond that take a punt on League 1 signings now, we are going for tried and tested quality now not gambling on lower league players

Probably where this thread started from.

 

[HastingsSeagull]

Good L1 player but can't see it really

Or county div 2 players ;-)

 

[prawnsarnies]

Last time we played them at their ground he was quality, but we have moved on since then.

 

[BensGrandad]

He ran us into the ground at both home and away games but we have moved on from, then. Has he?

Get out of it. We still want to be looking for young talented players who we can improve and develop into quality players. As wwll as looking for the tried and tested.
