Loads of ‘older more intelligent people’ say to me he’s useless. I think we should sign him but the fee has to be fairly low. He could be a replacement for Hugo in a 4-3-1-2 formation
Kirky
Stevie Alacarez Titus Maynor
McCarthy Diame Charlie
Moreno
Boselli Vela
Yeah think hes decent Moreno with all the speculation about the signings were after i doubt he’l stay though. I think he will be similar to rodders played ok end of his 1st season then last year he played well! :mrgreen:

He’s 22 (23 on the 18th) & that for me makes it even better. Signing him on a 4 year deal would for me be a great thing to do so as he gets better, so will Wigan as a team.
His goalscoring record is to put it plain, very poor at the highest level. When he was playing for Cruzeiro a few years ago he couldn’t stop scoring. All we need to do is get him scoring against cup opponents & in pre season. After that he’s got more of an idea of what is needed of him to score in England.

I don’t think Rodders was very impressive last season..the goals are all he did really..not much else.
Am I right in thinking the deal for Moreno when he first came on loan was £7mil if we wanted him?

It was £6m & that price must have gone down due to the lack of A goal in 12 appearances & Shakhtar Donetsk don’t seem to want him.

We’ll see what happens in July[/quote]
I’m sure i saw the figure 7mil…Maybe Euros??
Don’t know about the price going down but hope we get him either way.
Getting him on loan until January would be perfect or just having him on a trial for a few weeks. Martinez needs cover in ever position & up-front is the place were it’s most needed

Cover is most needed at left-back as we only have 1!..We have more than one striker, whether they’re up for the job is another question.
Why would a trial be any good.. He needs to play in the Prem, a few pre-season games won’t really determine anything. loan, as you said, would be great. The question is if they will be willing to loan him out again instead of just selling him elsewhere.

N’zogbia & Maynor can play LB.
I don’t think Marcelo is even a Striker & currently our strike force is Hugo & Scotland. No cover there.
The 2 young polish lads have left (Cykwa to Derby & Kupisz is out of contract) so that makes us even weaker up-front.
Next season these could be our 4 strikers. Vela, Moreno, Botelli, Kupisz (if he stays)

N’zogbia cannot play LB very well as we have seen whilst playing for us and playing against us for Newc.
How can you say Marcelo Moreno isn’t even a striker, what other position could he POSSIBLY play?
Considering we play 4-5-1 we don’t need cover up front as much as we do at LB..
As for your last point, I don’t think Vela will come to wigan, hope he does!.. I think you mean ‘Boselli’ not ‘Botelli’..Also I don’t think Kupisz can be classed as cover.. he doesn’t even play.
Why the hell would you want us to sign a player who couldn’t score last season and didn’t even look like doing?
Why are you saying ‘Us’? You clearly don’t support the Latics and are pessimistic about all of what happens, dare I say it seems as though you hate Wigan Athletic.
I would want us to sign him as he did look like doing at some points. Especially when he did that great touch and left footed strike, albeit against portsmouth!
he is young and could be good in the future, even this season coming hopefully!
