Got a year on his contract so there would be a decent fee to pay as well. On balance I think I would be happy with Brum taking on this liability rather than us.

I would imagine Blades will be paying through the nose for anything now. Everyone can smell their desperation. Robinson and Bindon on loan are their only CB’s. Propping up the table, possibility of loosing Gus, couldn’t happen to a nicer team and fan base.

Was that an assist by Thomas !!!

When we first heard about our bids for Hughes many of us thought a partnership of Hughes and Kitch would have been a definite step up. Ie. Thomas warming the bench, £8mill for someone we were hoping to be a backup CB is fantastic business for us. Let’s make the deal for Hughes and get a...

Really. MVE still here - do you know what deals have been put forward? I certainly don’t. A report saying we’d been offered £6-7 mill for him and we turned it down. Do you really think that is Doug fucking up the window? Is that all you think MVE is worth? Which deals have broken down...

Yeah I think we can do better than this but in fairness I think he played every championship game for them last season so he must still have a decent engine and be robust as far as injuries are concerned.

Simms currently on a goal a game…. 😀

Are you saying you thought Palmer made a real impact when he came on as sub? I thought he looked decidedly mediocre, and the only impact I saw was when he hit row Z when shooting at goal.

According to FotMob: 1.43 xg and 0.43 xga I take a lot of heart from our defense/GK in this game. Don’t forget we were leaking goals for fun last season. This will only get better if we improve our CB and CF options this window.

Would agree with BTA being poor with regard to attacking threat. But JDS had a good game, kept Kamara pretty quiet and was good going forward. I really do not understand the continued hate for him.

I agree with this But…. I understand our model is also promising prospective players we are trying to sign that we would not stand in their way if a top/ premiership team came knocking. For us to show this is more than just words we probably have to walk this walk too even if it is unpopular...

So it looks like we need the love child of Hughes and Doyle to have a super CB.

How was COH an asset that was stripped? He ran his contract down for a move and a signing on bonus…

I wouldn’t dismiss EMC from being able to provide backup cover for RW also. He has played there before And is looking more comfortable at this level now than at the start of last season.

The minimum for me would be a starting quality CB. Beyond this we would need to offload a few, but I wou,d be very happy if we got a new CF?

Yeah, he seems to be showing a bit more bite / physicality too.

Well I really do not think he would be an improvement. He’s 26, been with a quality coaching environment for some time so I would guess he has hit his ceiling and there would be little uplift we could expect. I think currently both Thomas and Kitch would be better. So he would only be a...

I’m really not sure that would be the case.

I’ll be pleased if we offload for a profit. i originally thought he had a lot of promise, but tbh if both Robins and Frankie have been unable to unlock it, it probably doesn’t exist…..

I guess in Texas terms we’re pretty close to London. 😀 Doesn’t FL commute daily?
