Sick of seeing this test being overrated. Yeah he’s scored a few goals, but he’s playing in the national league ffs.

Just some bloke from a club on a TV show. Unlike Vardy he's already played hundreds of matches in the Football League and he'll be 29 next season. I think Vardy was winning the Premier League by that age, not still twatting about in Non League. Oh what a visionary you are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a reason why he’s been playing non league at 28 years old im Not sure if it’s the 6 goals in 40 For Swindon or 8 in 42 for Tranmere but those impressive feats in league one and two tell me the new Jamie Vardy he ain’t by maybe it’s just our lack of vision.

We signed Lambert for a big fee on the back of him being League One player of the year and top scorer in the division. Which was also the division we were in at the time. So everyone I remember was delighted with that. It certainly wasn't a "visionary" signing. It was a League One version of City signing Haaland, the best available striker at that level and we got him because we had coin. Rickie Lambert also never kicked a non league ball in his life. What has any of this got to do with us as one of the richest clubs in the second tier signing a 28 year old from Non League with no decent League record to speak of? Honestly this is not going well for you. Edited 6 May, 2023 by CB Fry 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus Mullins has never scored goals in league one, he had one season there and scored 3, prior to 2020/21 season hed never scored more than 10 goals in a season at any level. in going to stick my neck out here and say that with him being 29 in November and never delivered about league two level every single premier and championship club will also lack your vision and not sign him this summer.

I would say Mullins is almost certainly playing below his level, that's why he's heads and shoulders above - but I'd argue that his level will never be higher than that of L2/Lower L1 at an absolute push, as has been shown to be true across his entire career up to this point. This isn't the scenario you are trying to paint of us missing out/not seeing an unknown/young player from non-league, we'd be picking up an almost 30 year old who has never really performed above L2. Fitness wise alone, he'd never be able to make the step up now. 'IF' he was 21/22 then maybe there's a shout to be had, but not anymore.

I'm more inclined to agree given age that he has less of a chance of stepping up. My annoyance comes from me being painted as a wrexham/mullin super fan when the younger Langstaff scored more goals than him this season and my suggestion of him is overlooked, due to some weird hatred for wrexham and their success stroy.
