Dan Mooney linked to us on Twitter. Scored against us for Southend on the opening game of the season. Has left Southend this week, with a mixed response from their fanbase. 

Was he the nippy lad who seemed to be all over the pitch?, surprised they let him go and probably more surprised he has just the one goal this season.

 

Would know Hobson and maybe Lundstrum from his Alty days and naturally you could see why he'd be linked with us being a Manc.

 

* no it's not, had a Google and that was Powell*

 

Still he'd provide competition in the centre of the park.

On the face of it, it does seem a little strange that we are bringing in a twenty year old striker...

 

We have Ward, Lundstram, Reid all out injured...

We have NO right fullback good enough to play the position...

 

Anyone who watches Latics (the original) can see that we NEED a right back and we NEED a creative midfielder.

 

In Mellon we trust... probably

They really arent though are they. 

 

I think we've all agreed for sometime that the problem is in midfield.

Maybe MM knows a little bit more about our failings. Perhaps he sees him as a better foil for Norwood.

He’ll have his midfield targets too but perhaps this deal was to good to refuse.

I still think 3 of our current forwards will be gone soon!

I mean don't get me wrong I'm not writing the lad off he might be really good for us but it just seems slightly strange to bring in a player in a position that for the first time in a long time we are genuinely strong in.

Matt Longstaff ex Newcastle is a free agent!

Only 23 and looking for a new start after some bad injuries.

Would be worth a pay as you play punt in midfield....

Scored a cracker on his debute v Man Utd!!

Played on loan at Mansfield land Colchester last I think but did his knee last Christmas

He was a very promising young player. The worry would be he's never fully recovered.

Be good if MM could bring his son in at some stage. Knocking em in for Morecambe on loan from Burnley 

I've seen him and ironically in my opinion he'd be the perfect foil for Norwood, unlikely to happen for a couple of reasons and he wouldn't be short of offers at Championship/League 1 if he were to move on from Morecambe, wouldn't have thought he'd be pushing for a start at Burnley and will be learning plenty at Morecambe. 

 

Be nice though wouldn't it.
