RUMOUR - Church to Swansea

by Man Friday » 14 Dec 2010 14:19

Apparently Rodgers wants to buy Church. It's not hard to imagine Church wanting to go.

wouldn't blame him at all
McD hasn't backed him and he has had to watch two guys with no natural ability as strikers taking his place
And most Welsh people like to go back to Wales at some point!

Wouldn't be pleased with this.

NO! Church has the most potential of any of our strikers and this would be suicidal given we already need to buy one striker in January.

Besides, Swansea have a chance of going up and play 4-2-3-1. Where the feck does Church fit into that scenario?

Church has played a lot of his early football as a wide forward in a 3.

He's done it for us a little too, but perhaps more important Rodgers will no doubt want players that allow him to make tactical changes and not be reliant on one formation.

Can't really blame him if an offer did come in and he accepted it.

Never bloody wanted to with us. :evil:

Think Church has looked pretty poor out wide personally.

If the club were to allow Church to go and not have at least 2 replacements lined up then something is inherently wrong with Reading FC. This would amount to footballing suicide.

No problem - we have Bignall and Mooney coming back from loan and they are both setting the world alight in League 1!

Not sure why Swansea would want to buy him.
