Will Buckley

[WhingForPresident]

Will be forever etched into our history for those goals against Donny, but he was the definition of inconsistent even before he started rapidly descending towards the scrapheap. There may be a glimmer of an occasionally decent Championship player still in there...with the right support and a very good conditioning coach, it could work out... to an extent... possibly?

Who gave him his medical up there?

Who gave him his medical up there?

It's not been confirmed yet & going off the replies in this thread, there must be doubts over whether he could pass a medical !!!

Buckley was superb at times for us (when fit) but those days are long gone. I saw him at Birmingham and he was a shadow of the player he was for us when we supposedly turned down 5m for him.

I'm 61on 2nd July.
I'm fitter than William

I'm 32 the day after. Many happy returns for then!

As for Buckley - my favourite played in our first Amex season, but struggled to hit the heights after his injuries. Think his move to Sunderland, whilst understandable is what has killed his progression.

I think the problem is managing his hamstring weakness (obvious). in his last season 2013-14 he still managed half the games.

I surmise the problem is that he can't manage full pelt in training, if he can train at all?

If you don't expect much then I reckon there will be a few amazeballs cameo performances especially if you could use him off the bench. If you'll rely on him though you'll get 3 average performances and then won't see him till after Xmas due to injuries.

The player, the dog just went from strength to strength, playing for the Albion under K9s to meeting Gully then finally an appearance for the England K9s, never suffered from any hamstrings either

Stupid idiot allowed himself to be brainwashed by Poyet, which ultimately ruined his career.

 

[Bold Seagull]

He's still only 27!!!

Could be a superb signing. Giggs didn't get over his hamstrings until his later 20s. Buckley still played 30+ games per season with us for 3 seasons.

Well worth a risk I'd say, I saw the thread and thought we might have had a punt taking him back!

 

[MattBackHome]

If he gets his pace back he will do well. Age is on his side but I wouldn't bet on it.
