Harry Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 There another video I’ve found of his goals and assists in his season under Manning at MK Some of the assists are gorgeous. Note that he does mostly contribute from central areas. So he definitely shouldn’t be shunted out left like he’s been at Hull. Note also the amount of forward runners he is able to find. If we can get Conway, Knight, Sykes making those type of forward runs, Twine will find them. Of that I have no doubt 2 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve said it consistently that TC is one of the best natural finishers I’ve seen, we just need to get to it him in space for once! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardy Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 I thought he was a midfielder but he looks more like a Gerard Bowen type attacker in these clips - so more an attacker than anything else? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merrick's Marvels Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 (edited) Forget the goals and assists from dead ball set pieces just for a minute (they'll come in handy, mind). Look at where on the field he picks the ball up and hurts the opposition, look at the runners ahead and around him. That's where we need to play him and those are the options we need to give him. Can we do that? Edited January 15 by Merrick's Marvels 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
italian dave Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 7 hours ago, W-S-M Seagull said: He does my head in with all this "I understand such and such" as if he has inside information. That's how he likes to frame it. The reality is he understands because he's read it on the Internet like the rest of us or heard in in press conferences. Ian has zero sources at the club. That's true. Mind you, some people read it on the internet and hear it in press conferences...and still don't understand it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Hankey Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Wouldnt be too surprised if Burnley try moving the goalposts late in the talks. I really dont rate Kompany (despite all the media hype) & would be amazed if he kept them up…..surely they would want Twine to spend another 6 months out on loan getting fully up to speed with the Championship then going back in the summer ready for them to challenge for promotion again the following season. Hopefully if that is the case we would walk away from the deal…..all will be revealed in the next couple of days.
