Turner saying we want a CB (most likely Clarke-Salter) and a LWB, both on loan. Seems a bit odd to have two loanee LWBs as it’s not a position you rotate often and will probably just lead to a repeat of the Giles situation from last season.

It's a shame there's not a budget over to sign cranie as he'd be cover accross the backline.

It really irrates me seeing this...

Do you honestly believe having Craine at LWB or RWB would work well, even in a desperate scenario you would likely have better options.

Even if we played a flat 4 I could maybe agree but even then, he'd be far too susceptible 1on1.

Funny that we're a feeder club for other Championship teams to get PL loans

I’m sure they’re down to barebones at the back too, doesn’t look great for his chances of making it there

After Clarke-Salter I had hoped the other loan would be a central midfielder. Disappointing that Reid isn't considered even 2nd choice left wing back.

Well that's a shame , not too sure how we never got in on this , maybe it's a wage % issue who knows .

Good signing for them if they get him , I'd imagine it's with a view to permanent too ..Will be worth a bit in a couple of years

More that we want him to go out and be a first choice somewhere else so he gets as much game time as possible

Hopefully , let's be honest he's not going to make it here and really we should look at a loan to permanent to get him off the books , same age as ostigard and Miles behind

I wouldn’t write him off just yet but yes he does need an impressive season wherever he goes to get himself into the reckoning here

While we’re being irritated:

Wingbacks are midfielders not defenders. We play 3412 not 5212. They’re expected to provide attacking width while the wide CBs can come across and the two DMs provide a shield.

Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

Why on earth would you have two loanees fighting for one position? And why no CM? Hope Turner is wrong.

We would have been interested in bringing him back of course, Robins has said it (or along those lines). Brighton are probably looking for a bigger wage contribution or maybe looking to sell (obligation or buy, etc) which we can't afford.

Or maybe he doesn't want to come back to Cov. Those teams mentioned will probably be the other end of the table come final day.

I’d rather two CBs than another loan LWB TBH.

Think we then need to think about getting players out next. Hopeful if Drysdale and Pask are offloaded on loan and maybe Allen that might allow us to bring someone else in.

Yes, and it was as stupid then as it is now. You have a cap on loanees, so why would you be loaning a player in who will either sit on the bench or cause one of your other loanees to sit on the bench? It’s idiotic.

Hilssner and Jobello are bigger priorities considering they don’t have even squad numbers

I've no why anyone would want to go to Stoke. Could be the most depressing hole I've ever lived. Spent a year there, it's a grim place.

I'm not even bothered. Wasn't that good, can't pick a pass, doesn't fit into our style etc...

We probably were but Brighton will want him to progress. It's rare that a team will send a player they've got serious hopes for to the same club for more than one loan spell.
