Cheers Mark.

Also, you've just tried to put a square peg in a round hole to prove your point. Liverpool's situation was completely different. Firstly, Sterling forced the move because Liverpool was in the situation United are in currently and secondly he moved nearly 5 years ago.

Think they were in the press the other week, he was scrapping with his mate over a girl. Didn't bother going training at Wigan if he wasn't playing.

Nothing said or seen about Allen suggests he's a creative player. More of a runner like Shipley and Westbrooke.

If MR is aware of all this why is he speaking to the press about bringing him back?

He isn't, is he?

He said he had a call about Bright wanting to come back I think.

I reckon Robins has just been wily, throw out a mention of Bright to distract us from Julian Gray being poached

You're right of course they aren't exactly comparable but in theory at least Liverpool didn't have to sell as he was still under contract

Frustrating as it’s always good to freshen things up (gets fans excited !) but other than a goalscorer (incase Godden gets injured) who are hardly two a penny, it’s difficult to know what you’d bring in. A winger possibly.

Would rather just see Robins utilise what we’ve got a little bit more ie by rotating if players are flagging etc

ps on a brighter note, replay ticket arrived, that was quick !

Something incredible - Bright coming back - He's gone to Birmingham

He hasn't gone to Brum and I'm sure MR would be aware of that before us so why mention his name specifically?

Maybe Robins is the master of the double bluff and we actually are gona sign ten ton of players. He just doesn’t want other clubs knowing what’s going on.

Or we just arnt signing anyone

Really?
He's not had much game time and generally comes on to run around at the end of games but when he's started he looks very good.

Play Bright behind Godden and we will become a serious threat going forward.

You could pivot to a 3511 to take away his defensive duties.

In theory no, but you could also argue that in theory none of the traditional top 4 really have to sell their players whilst under contract. The fact remains though he pushed the move though so realistically they did have to sell otherwise they'd have an unhappy player on their books disrupting the dressing room whilst his transfer value subsequently plummets. Which they weren't ever going to allow to happen as doesn't make sense - neither from a footballing standpoint, or a financial one.

The only thing bright would bring is that bit of xfactor when we are struggling to unlock defences. If he did come in i'd start O'hare and bring Bright off the bench.
