Transfer News Transfer Window Summer 21

Great news. Get the 'knackered marquee signing' out of the way early on, keep that sports science team employed. Will he rank above or below Winnall for the massage table?

Shouldn't they have a fight to see who's the hardest?

 

[Marked Ox]

Being honest, If he was on the opponent's teamsheet then he wasn't a player I was particularly worried about. That said if he can strike up his partnership with Matty Taylor again then it could be an astute signing for us and him.

I still hope we try to sign a Nathan Holland type wide player to add pace etc which may also help Harrison should we sign him.

 

[battman]

I think if we sign Harrison there'll be more question marks about Winnall's future than Agyei's. Winnall was brought in to be that stronger player up front who could hold things up and score a few goals too, and the fact that we're pursuing a strong striker who we'd have to pay a fee for hints that we're looking to let Winnall go.

 

[Paul Cannell]

I doubt they'll both be able to stand up at the same time.

 

[brassmonkey]

so which pompey player will we sign after Harrison? Maybe a certain R Curtis.

I hope not. I don't want to have to pretend to like him.

Was he? If he was that’s a weird one given he’s never been a Target Man before

 

[tatabanya]

Cant see any harm in bringing Shodipo in. He is a bit unpredictable but I think that makes him dangerous. His goal scoring record was impressive last season considering he had never scored a professional goal before joining us.

Given the amount of £ QPR allegedly want for him I’d say there is some harm

Another season loan?

 

[Leysboy]

Just getting it warmed up. Nothing imminent!

If they were putting a huge price tag on him then I trust our board and manager not to blow the money on him. If the right fee/loan can be agreed then I think it would be a worthwhile avenue to look into.

 

[Hackney Jack]

it's well known that Barker was going to need time to get up to speed and and was subsequently subbed due to fitness etc and was then injured resulting in the odd game/minutes here and there.Not forgetting it was often 1 or the other or Shodipo was out on the right when actually on the pitch together.

To get Barker on a permanent would be a major coup as for me he is the better of the 2 and always capable of doing something special and with a full season with team mates would make us pretty lethal.

Agree with this. Barker is better all round than Shodipo. Barker's touch and class is Championship level.

 

[Hackney Jack]

Unless we are getting rid of sick note winnall

Surely Winnall wont be here for next season? Even Scotch Egg wouldn't defend Winnall? Like he did Kelly... Nuff said.

Careful, it's delicate, don't want you getting the blame for a lack of signings because you broke it

Are you sure?

 

[WRox]

Could be really sensible if used correctly. KR seems to have recognised that we need another option when we can’t play through our midfield (usually against the better teams). Harrison would allow us to go more direct and has had a productive partnership with Taylor before.

 

[windmill]

so which pompey player will we sign after Harrison? Maybe a certain R Curtis.

Is Alan Biley still available? Likes to score late, late on which suits our stats quite well. Might be worth a punt.

We'd have to sign Father Christmas as well though, Biley doesn't score without the big man putting in the assist.

 

[RyanioBirdio]

Harrison was racially abused by some of our fans away at Rovers in 2016. The same game where Taylor came off the bench to score the winner and did the handshake celebration. “Oi Harrison, lend us a monkey, mate!” was the line used repeatedly to goad him. At one point somebody followed it up with a monkey ‘shriek’. Harrison stopped and glared at the people responsible more than once and they were reported to stewards, but nothing was done about it. Those same people will probably be cheering him if he signs.
