Linky Posted April 6, 2021 Report Share Posted April 6, 2021 He's always been ok when I've seen him, and a decent replacement for Conway/MOH. I just hope we're not breaking the bank to get him. Whatever you think of the player, it is positive that Davidson is looking ahead in terms of sorting out his squad. This is something I've complained about us not doing in the past. Also, weakening our rivals is never a bad idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintJet Posted April 6, 2021 Report Share Posted April 6, 2021 Not overly impressed. He was okay on loan from the Dons but he's not kicked on. Maybe CD sees a role for him at our budget. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picks the ball up, beats men 1v1 in the middle, plays balls in behind for strikers. Wotherspoon was absolutely knackered by half time v Dundee, but we dont have anyone who can come in to the centre of the park and offer what he does, so he was left on. McCann had two chances to play strikers in and got it wrong twice. Big hole in the squad, and Pawlett, while being a drop off in quality from Wotherspoon, is that type of player I think. Not many of them going about so makes sense to have a look/enquire about him. He won't be getting signed as first choice, just a similar role to Bryson/Conway in that he'll come in to rest others/give us something different when needed.

mainstand Posted April 6, 2021 Report Share Posted April 6, 2021 Would see him as a potential signing but again a player towards the 30s would rather we looked at younger players. Did he not end up in a spat with Tommy campbell after he went back to Aberdeen, made claims about young boys washing the kit and not getting clean kit etc at training, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can accept that he won't be being signed as first choice, but won't he be on quite a decent wage? Surely we need to be out-bidding his current employers, or are they not interested in keeping him?

Hes not first choice there, and doesn't seem to even be in squads these days, so presumably he's a goner there regardless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you saying 23 league appearances out of 33 is because they are resting players?

rik2304 Posted April 7, 2021 Report Share Posted April 7, 2021 Technically 23 appearances could be coming off the bench 23 times in the 89th minute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linky Posted April 7, 2021 Report Share Posted April 7, 2021 If he's not even in the squad most of the time, that sounds more like he's fallen out with the management, as you'd usually keep someone like that on the bench at least (or have they got a very big squad?). In that case, he might be looking for a way out, and wage demands might not be too high. Can he play in Conway/MOH role, or is it likely to be just back-up to Wotherspoon? TBH, I think Middleton has shown promise and would prefer to keep him for another season on loan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBH, I think Middleton has shown promise and would prefer to keep him for another season on loan. Most of us would want Middleton to stay another year but can't see it. It would have to be a loan as we couldn't afford him. Would Rangers loan him to us again if he wasn't getting game time. On Pawlett. His stats don't look great.2 goals,1 assist,7 bookings & a sending off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said earlier, he has made 14 starts. Clearly a fringe player and that is reflected in United fans’ opinions of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
