Dasilva is a useful squad player. Good to bring on if we're chasing a game (e.g Man U game) and a perfect fit for the LWB position, and can play WF if we're looking to go more solid.

If you compare our RB side to the LB side it’s night and day.
Im a really big fan of him, and hope he continues to develop at the rate he is because one day he could have all the attributes to be a top playerI think he needs another loan , hopefully to league one but he has huge potential. I suppose it depends if we do sign another forward
Move on Dasilva, simple
There's been a weird mindset on here since we fell away at the end of the season with players like Collins and DaSilva being totally written off by some and even players like Kitching as well .Dasilva is a useful squad player.

I think he’ll go out on loan again but not to the top end of league 1. Could probably do with another season in league 2 playing regular minutes.Reckon we could loan Obikwu to Peterborough, I’d love him to be an option off the bench for us but maybe they could develop him like they do for all their forwards
With 3 years on his contract I cant see anyone taking him. £1.5m left of his contract at £10k/wk.Move on Dasilva, simple
Is he on 30k? I doubt that surelyWith 3 years on his contract I cant see anyone taking him. £1.5m left of his contract at £10k/wk.
If he's underperforming here who else takes that risk?
I'd love to see an upgrade, MvE 2.0 on the left, but we can't magic a sale. In the hope im proven wrong, I doubt our LB pair is changing this summer.
Side note, Binks is on £30k, he needs to step up and really perform this season. Looked decent last year but now he needs to prove he's worth that much cash.
Binks was on 30k at Bologna not here no chance thats our top earner by far, pretty sure Haji is on 23kWith 3 years on his contract I cant see anyone taking him. £1.5m left of his contract at £10k/wk.

One source said he was on £30k at Bologna, another said he was on £6k. The second one seems more realisticBinks was on 30k at Bologna not here no chance thats our top earner by far, pretty sure Haji is on 23k
I highly doubt he was on £30,000 at Bologna. Imagine he’s on £10,000 to £15,000 tops here and there.One source said he was on £30k at Bologna, another said he was on £6k. The second one seems more realistic
That's a wide margin?One source said he was on £30k at Bologna, another said he was on £6k. The second one seems more realistic
It's almost like no one actually knows....That's a wide margin?
No way is Binks on 30K a week.With 3 years on his contract I cant see anyone taking him. £1.5m left of his contract at £10k/wk.

None of them are reliableView attachment 36906
To be fair, i dont know how accurate the site is, but the green tick supposedly means its "verified by a source".
Pinch of salt and a citation required maybe.

DaSilva didn't have the best season but there were spells when he played well .
Bidwell isn't slow and is arguably one of our most consistent performers .
There are other areas we need to strengthen before we look at positions with enough cover already
I think EMC will tear right backs apart this season , he's one of the most exciting players we've signed in a long time . So there won't be the same pressure on Bidwell to get forward as muchI agree with the last statement, hence why I replied to Saddle using brackets and a wink emoji, but I do think Bidwell is just a little bit slow for this level. He can cross the ball well but he doesn’t get forward or take players on that often, and defensively he can be exposed for pace against quick wingers.
So you don't think he overlaps when Haji invariably cut's inside?I agree with the last statement, hence why I replied to Saddle using brackets and a wink emoji, but I do think Bidwell is just a little bit slow for this level.

Well that’s bollocks isn’t it. Bidwell does get forward. There’s some weird revisionist shit that goes on with Bidwell getting forward for some reason. Also, I’d quite like to see a few examples of him getting exposed by these quick wingers.I agree with the last statement, hence why I replied to Saddle using brackets and a wink emoji, but I do think Bidwell is just a little bit slow for this level.

Rodrigues as wellSaka on the right

It gets mentioned by some on here and after a while it becomes gospel .Well that’s bollocks isn’t it. Bidwell does get forward.

I can’t see Wright being on the bench.Saka on the right

Yes… our record signing is going to be back upSaka on the right

Just what I thoughtYes… our record signing is going to be back up
I think we will see a lot of different players benched at different times this seasonI can’t see Wright being on the bench.

Could he play right side ? He did seem predominantly right footed last seasonI can’t see Wright being on the bench.
If we’ve got the depth it’ll be ideal but the idea that he’ll be a backup player is nonsense.I think we will see a lot of different players benched at different times this season
He does do that, not saying he never attacks, it’s just not that often. A lot of our attacks have been reliant on Wright and Simms doing something special, either individually or together, ideally the whole team contributes to those attacks not making the striker or winger create and score the chance between them.So you don't think he overlaps when Haji invariably cut's inside?
Why is that a concern? You buy players to compete if you want success , strength in depth is a must as we saw to our cost last seasonI am a bit concerned that we’re going to struggle to fit Wright and EMC into the same side which isn’t ideal when we’ve spent a combined £12m+ on the two of them.
