On another note, what's Gabby been up too? Not heard much on him this pre season so far?


Lambert interviewed on SSN earlier about any more signings and he said that Gabby was injured along with another six players.

EWW beat me to it.

what did he say on more signings ?

That we have six players injured and when they come back it'll be like having six new players, we're totze sorted.

Fonz has had his chances with various managers and hasn't taken them so he needs to move on. As for Bannan he winds me up every time i see him, he's lazy, tries the spectacular all the time when an easy option is available to him. He is a liabilty who needs to be moved on quickly.

Bannan isn't lazy and stopped the 'hollywood' pass two seasons back. A tidy squad player along with Clark, Albrighton, Baker and Gardner.

Being a squad player is what Bannan's been since 2009. He's barely progressed. Time to ship him out. The others have all come on  - Albrighton at his best was a lot better than Bannan and he's had his fair share of injuries so deserves another chance.

If i had to pick between Delfouneso and Bowery as a forward i'd pick Delfouneso EVERY single time

I'm not sure why he gets so much flak. Decent player that's never had a proper run in his favoured position. But he certainly looks a better bet than Bowery in front of goal to me. You could say that's not saying a lot, but i think Nathan's got something to offer.

But I was told once that his main problem is a lack of self belief, and that was from folks at Bodymoor

Bannan is behind Bacuna, KEA, Gardner, Sylla, Delph and Westwood minimum for one of 2/3 places in the side, I can't see any reason to keep him.  I agree Delfouneso looks a better bet than Bowery, but that isn't saying much and I'd still put him behind Benteke, Helenius, Gabby, Tonev, N'Zog, Weimann and Albrighton for one of the 3 forward roles, so again I dont see much point in keeping him.  He's probably on quadruple Bowerys salary as well.

Be chuffed if we can get a couple £m for either before deadline's out, but I've a feeling we'll be stuck with them until their contracts run down (which I believe is end of this upcoming season, making it all the less likely we'll be getting any noteworthy offers for either).  C'est la vie.

Simple offer Bannan and Nathan, (one of those three from Ireland, Given, or Hutton) for Luke Murphy or someone similar.

Paul Ince is crying out for players at Blackpool. The Fonz and Bannan have both played there on-loan, maybe both parties would be keen. Likely involve us subsidising the bulk of the wages though, I imagine.

Didn't know he left for Leeds. But a young upcoming player in midfielder we need to replace Bannan :)

Cool your jets, lad. I'm not sure Bannan needs to be replaced given we already have about fifty midfielders as it is.
