Sounds like an attempt at filling the O’Hare voidPreston fan here - thought I'd provide my view on Seani for a bit of balance. Maguire has been one of the biggest scapegoats in our side for years. He's an easy target as his goal return has been lacking but that doesn't tell the whole story. For most of his time with us he was used as a lone striker/target man under Alex Neil which obviously was never going to get the best out of him.
Sean Maguire might not be a fox in the box type 20 goal a season striker but when he has the ball played to his feet, he is excellent at holding up play and linking with other attackers. Great first touch, great range of passing for a striker, suprisingly good in the air. Loves to drop in and make things happen. Great balance too, makes him really hard to knock off the ball. His work ethic/pressing off the ball is also very good. We always looked a better footballing side with Maguire in the team. If you can look past his goal return and pair him with a genuine goal threat (something we've rarely had as a side) he will be excellent. Hope you lot can get the best out of him
Indeed, which is why we've signed 2 players today solely based on our Twitter admin's Irish flag jape...He’s done fuck all so far get rid
All joking aside though. I struggle to understand the instant negative reactions. Football is meant to be a laugh isn’t it? Life is shite enough already.
Sounds like the type of player to take some of the running of Vik keeping him more fresh and at this point I'd take that. Look forward to seeing what he's got at a fresh club.Preston fan here - thought I'd provide my view on Seani for a bit of balance.

Sounds positive. This sounds exactly the type of player Waghorn was intended to be, I think, and it was working in the early stages with us.Preston fan here - thought I'd provide my view on Seani for a bit of balance.

You can’t purely go on stats I assume is the point. And it’s valid.
Regardless of how this signing ends up turning out.
Although lack of goals for a striker are way more of a valid concern than O’Hares stats.
Depends has only scored a quarter of the goals Waghorn has but he is younger so time to catch up.He's not... prolific, is he.

We are crying out for players that can score goals, so finding out our new striker is 'atrocious in front of goal' sounds about right.
Playing the moral high ground by shouting 'give him a chance' is fair enough, but I think looking at his stats and the consistency of what other fans at his previous club have said, I am not expecting anything particularly special. Good luck to him though, hope he does impress.
If he’s another attacking midfielder / play just behind Vik he at least gives us options.
We could actually do with another DM to play alongside Sheaf, or, if desperate put Kelly there as a sub second half.
Put Gus RWB (his original position). I think he could do well whipping the ball into the box from out wide.

You mentioned on another thread that you'd heard some names mentioned we had a strong interest in @Great_Expectations. Presumably we've missed a few targets?Let’s give him a chance. He has history of playing well at this level, who’s to say MR/AV aren’t the people to get him back to that level.
Also, strikers being judged purely on goals is dinosaur. We have Gyokeres for that, it’s clear we’re lacking intent behind him since COHs injury. The attributes mentioned by the PNE fans sounds like they’ll compliment Vik well.

So that’s the real reason they got rid of hom. Didn’t suit their style.We always looked a better footballing side with Maguire in the team.

O'Hare is a pretty unique example and one of the few players you would have in the team who can't score goals, because the rest of his game is generally outstanding.
The rest of our squad is completely dry though, and runs bare on goals throughout. You can't ignore those stats, like you can't ignore those of Palmer, or Maguire before they signed. On that basis it seems this acquisition is quite desperate on paper, particularly when you factor in the injuries.
It might not hold true in this case of course, there's always exceptions, and I hope that happens. I do think, however, some people are so desperate for signings they are being a bit in denial about the transfer business.
Fuck sake, even Jody Jones has had more minutes than this clown.Last played 90 mins Nov 2021…
Well balanced and considered view as alwaysFuck sake, even Jody Jones has had more minutes than this clown.
Looks like King is recruiting for league 1.
At least Maguire has gone through puberty which is more than can be said for our other loans.
Fixed the cadence for you. Solid gold.Seani Maguire, Seani Maguire,
He drinks the Murphys, He drinks the Guinness,
He's *just* done both his hamstrings
Solid gold.
