Mo Eisa to Exeter on loan.
May take them out of the reckoning, unless they need two new strikers.

Not a big fan myself. Does some things alright. I?m surprised we haven?t accepted that offer. Don?t think we will get anymore for him.

He will either leave on a free or for a pittance, or increases massively in value over the next year or so. It's a gamble.
We are solvent as a club, £200k ain't gonna buy us a 15 goal striker.
We should hang on if he's happy to stay and fight for his place.

He signed for 2 years.

I?m torn, seems a good offer on the face of it although not sure what we paid Brentford for him.
he?s the youngest of the 5 Strikers/CF we have and output is probably on par with all but Reid (obviously) also not really including Oliver in that as he?s only one game in. Bringing Oliver in speaks volumes that Evans dosnt trust him as yet as he seems more of that style of striker than Reid.
Oliver and Hemmings both 32 so not ones to build teams around but Pressley needs minutes which he dosnt seem to be getting.
List at 26 and averaging 1 in 5 is probably the prime candidate to go out of all of them but is the closest to Reid in style so if we loose Reid to injury then List is the natural fit without having to change style of play.

This seems pretty much spot on.
Perhaps he'll get some more game time in February with 7 games coming up if of course he's still at Boro come Friday morning.

Yeah not a bad assessment that.

Possibly then we let him go on loan to lower Lg 1 or a 2 club only ?could free up budget for an incoming.

Loan could be a good option but could leave us short or is 4 enough in our system. Probably not tbh

Fair play but could have been viewed by some as good business.I hope and expect him to come I'm to his element in near future.TBF he has not had chance imo .

Simply not true. He has had plenty of chances, but hasn't looked quite as effective as other options.
Not saying he lacks potential. If he is worth around 200k how much is Reidy worth?

I like the lad, he does a lot of work off the ball in closing down options, also when he heads a ball on he's looks to direct it towards someone rather than just flicking it on in a somewhat hopeful manner

Plenty of chances? Hmm.
FWIW, he has started just 12 matches (plus seven sub) and has scored four times.

Reid is 7 years older than Pressley. Not as much value in the future for any purchasing team.

He hasnt had many chances to be fair
He dominated Boltons CBs, scored the week after against Wigan and since then has had only had 2 league starts, in which he was unfortunately nullified by a strong Shrewsbury back line, and Blackpool away we don£t talk about!
That being said Id still snatch your hand off for 200k

I think he does well but doesn't get in the right areas often enough. That will come with experience which we can't afford to give him in our current situation. We're better off with the cash than if he improves and then goes on a free anyway.
