I've never seen a reason Wright can't go right as he's very 2 footed and looks equally comfortable there when he does drift there. But neither Frank or Robins have done it, so I can't see it.
I don't think every outward transfer has to be against the clubs will. I fully believe Lampard would be asked if he'd rather keep Thomas or use the money from the sale of Thomas.
I have no real opinion on what he decides, that's up to him.
I've always liked Bob but the question that bid asks the club is, do you think Hughes is better than Thomas and could we get him? If the answer is yes then you take the chance and flip him, if not you keep him.
You make it work for you, basically.
Something seems off about it though, if we're talking about flipping him to go for Hughes then i don't get why the Blunts wouldn't just go straight for Hughes, who they were also linked with.
