No idea the value, but I'm reliably told he's off to Portsmouth.
Same source told me about the Webster deal before it was announced. |  | | |  |

Wouldn’t surprise me one bit. I’ve always thought if it was between him and Jackson to leave, it would be Harrison.
Starting the season with Norwood, Jackson and 1 other with Sears to return in January. Is that going to be enough? |  |

Harrison got 14 goals at league one level last time. I think this is a mistake if true.
Sears returns in January at best and will take time to get up to match fitness. That's if we somehow break our long term injury curse. |  |

Depends who we get in (if there's any truth in it).
Let's wait and see. |  |

Nope. |
Wonder if we may use one of the loan ‘slots’ on a striker for 6 months till January? Young Prem player maybe? | |

Very much true, but just get the impression PL doesn’t fancy him (purely speculation on my part). Injured for large parts of the season, and when fit, barely featured under PL. Can only presume if we get back what we paid, he’d be off. | |

Agree. Not too worried as I assume we have someone else lined up (in addition to Norwood) if he's being allowed to leave. | |

Harrison is a cut above Jackson but I wouldn’t lose sleep over either moving on. It’s a shame if he goes to a divisional rival but needs must to free up funds for an upgrade. |  |

Tyler Walker on loan would be interesting. | |

Harrison has more to his game than Jackson but I'm not sure either are up to much. |  | | |

If it’s Harrison v Will Keane or somebody of that ilk, I think it’s the right thing to do.
I do think that Harrison has the attributes to be a quite complete player at this level, but I don’t think he will be given the time to develop into that with us (rightly or wrongly). |  | | |

Well having 9 strikers/forwards (or whatever it was) didn't work this season. I'm all for a much smaller squad. 3 central strikers of first team level would be enough. Question is where does Sears fit in; probably not as one of those central strikers. |  |

By the time Sears is fit at least one of our other strikers will be crocked. | |

I think that Harrison, if given a fair chance, would make the grade this year. He is a far more complete footballer than Jackson, who has pace to burn, but not the finesse to go with it?
The latter I would like to see converted to a winger, where his pace would be an asset, crossing and tracking back skills to be drilled in by our coaching staff? | | | |

I see more potential in Harrison than in Jackson , so would prefer to keep Harrison | | | |

Three strikers isn't enough. I'm hoping that we'll play two up top next season, at least a fair bit of the time, so having three strikers means you're only an injury or suspension away from having no striking option on the bench.
Having reflected on this a bit more I can see the logic. If Norwood really is a done deal then I think him and Harrison are too similar. Both not the biggest but decent in the air, both work hard and occupy the centre backs without having all that much in the way of pace. Norwood has the better goalscoring pedigree, albeit at a lower level. I imagine we want different options up front so Norwood arriving pushes Harrison out and makes room for someone who is a bit more of a presence. | |

If he's playing 1 up front, which he did for the majority of the time last season, then having to keep two other strikers happy instead of three would be much easier. It might be what you want, but PL like most managers seems to be a stubborn old chap and once he's made up his mind he's not one for turning.

Although he was hampered last season by a lack of options up front, which may have forced his hand. We did play two up front with a midfield diamond at times and looked more of a threat imo. I think he may look to go that way in League 1 if he has more striking options. It suits the rest of our squad far better than a 4-3-3.
That said, even if we start with one main striker there will be times we need to change to two up top during games and again we'd be just one injury or suspension away from being very light up front. | |

No, I agree we looked more threatening with two up front when PL decided to change formation at times. However, PL's default is 4-3-3 which he showed last season. Which means the more strikers he has, the more difficult it is to keep them all happy. Who'd be a manager? | |

Also have to bear in mind other factors. Harrison may want to move on for personal reasons, not everyone settles in the area etc...
For what it's worth, I was told Harrison would be gone this summer a long while before the Portsmouth story. |  |

After such an awful season, he probably wants to move on. Also, his wages might be the defining factor of Norwood signing |  |

This move would make sense.
Sell Harrison for between £750k and £1 mill.
Sign Norwood and Keane for zip.
Thats just good business. |  | | |
