This isn't because I am concerned about how my thoughts would be taken, but I am just not sure I've seen enough of him to make a decision either way.<br /><br />It is difficult, strangely enough, to judge a 'Keeper that plays behind such a tight defence. He clearly has a good record of goals conceded, but I remain to be convinced either way.<br /><br />Like you I am more worried about exits this month than I am excited about potential arrivals.<br /><br />I think we have a few players that have slipped down the pecking order and could be surplus to requirements, but the players that we are most likely to have interest for are those that we want to keep.<br /><br />I think that BWP is the real deal. I think he is the most clinical finisher we have had at The Valley since Darren Bent, and you'd probably have to go back to Clive Mendonca to find the last example of a player with the same natural talent.<br /><br />Clearly it helps that he is in such a good team, but he scored 8 in 21 games for us last season when we were nowhere near as dominant, so I don’t think it’s just that he is playing for the league leaders this season.<br /><br />I think, despite his recent barren spell, we would miss BWP if he was sold this month, but I am also concerned about the rumoured interest in Morrison and Kermorgant, and the potential interest in Wiggins, who must have caught the eye of a few teams higher up the league pyramid than us.<br /><br />I guess we will know in about a week, but I would happily have the window shut with no more ins or outs if it meant we wouldn’t lose any of our current heroes – of which there seems to be quite a few.Kings Hill Addickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08523787530053799457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6519968491157736669.post-40220796359337292192012-01-23T12:53:10.509+00:002012-01-23T12:53:10.509+00:00KHA.

He keeps getting carded for wasting time, he puches rather than catching crosses, and not always successfully. As you have alluded, I think he is being made better than he is by our defenders. I agree Taylor has been magnificent, and I am now warming to Morrison after a slow start to the season.<br /><br />In the first half on Saturday I thought both teams matched each other in all areas and both played a similar style.<br /><br />Re BWP, it is probably about time to give him a rest, but firstly we need to see out the transfer window. I suspect a few surprises here, but just want it finished.Any comments?Crowborough Addickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14094941826903897691noreply@blogger.com
