danny graham

Poyet told the Echo: “I need four strikers.

“But also because of what Danny has been showing. He’s been showing a lot.

“Danny’s been much better than in the first six months (of the season).

“Maybe that’s been created by football games, which I cannot give to every player.

“He’s looked sharp, holding the ball up in the way we want.

“We talk about the partner (to Defoe). If they don’t take their chances, Danny will have his very soon.

“I’m not afraid of that because he’s part of the squad and I see him every day.

“At the moment, he’s going nowhere.”

encouraging i think

 

Still out the door first chance then.

 

He looked decent coming off the bench against Liverpool and Spurs Comm, the strangest decision would be to let him leave without replacing him

 

Wickham came in last season, when we needed him, and did a job.

I don't want Graham to be our 'saviour' but I'd take it ......... he seems to have had a huge change in attitude from what I've seen recently.

 

What if he scored the winner today? What would some on this forum think of him then? For me personally my attitude towards him hasn't changed. He plays for SAFC so I'm backing him & if he scores I'll be bloody proud and sculling my beer

 

This!!! Definitely looks very "up for it" and, if Connor Wickham had that much drive and determination (and you all know how chi like Connor) he'd be applauded from the field every week. Graham looks the hungriest of our strikers (not including Defoe as he has only just come in andi haven't seen him"live" yet). So why not

 

If ANY player who has ability and is up for it and looking sharp in training, throw him on, I say !

 

If Dan was a soldier nee **** would get shot.

 

bit like the irish firing squad ,they stand in a circle

 

Maybe him and defoe could do summit not been his biggest fan but he has looked sharp last couple if appearances

 

About as sharp as a blunt, rusty sickle - it's just the rest are even blunter.
That said, if he plays today & leaves me with egg on my face I'll happily wipe it off with a large slice of humble pie.

 

He is on the bench

 

Played well when he came imo put himself about..

 

Well I aint being doing any baking.

 

I would start Danny and Fletcher with Gecci on Tuesday at Fulham, let's see what they can do. By the way Fulham lost at Blackburn, and Bradford drew at home to 4th bottom Colchester (I think).

 

I'd start Defoe, Giac and Alvarez.

After an hour of play, all three will have scored and then we'll bring Graham and Fletch on.

 

Not that bothered about Fletcher tbh. At least when Graham came on he tried.

Fletcher doesn`t seem particularly interested for some reason.
