Best not to risk it, we'd better sell him just to be on the safe side.

[brian green]

That's just silly.  I think they should both change their names by deed poll to Scrivener.

[Richard E]

Yes Brian, but that would still leave us with the dilemma - is it Scrivener Clark or Scrivener Clarke?

Must admit I was very impressed with him in the Euros and in a Derby game I saw.

[SoccerHQ]

That's the sort of signing that would get me really excited for our promotion prospects this season.

International who had a decent tournament and is a very good player at that level for Derby so proven championship quality which with respect to likes of Gollini and Tshibola they just aren't yet.

Seems Burnley had a 3m bid turned down for him so it's worth asking the question at least.

It's years since we were able to sign decent players from other premier league clubs, surely we can at least do that at championship level with the budget we now have.

I'd be pleased too.
I was very impressed with him at the Euro's but not seen too much of him for Derby

Derby have a lot of good players in central midfield so possible they may let him if bid is high enough, have Bradley Johnson, Butterfield, Will Hughes, Bryson and Thorne (injured again tho) as other midfield options plus whoever Pearson signs (were linked with Nick Powell yesterday).

One of the great football mysteries how Derby can never get promoted. They are  like the Arsenal of the championship, good to watch and top of the league at xmas but always bottle it from March onwards.

Right sort of age as well. 24 with a couple of hundred Championship appearances behind him.

Just looked at the squad. We have NO NUMBER 10. So we obviously need a number 10.

Options : like to bring in giovincho from Toronto mls too good over there and decent enough to own championship .

My sources in Ghana are telling me that we do actually have a number 10...

Hendrick was alright I suppose, he reminded me of Brett Holman, but better.

[passitsideways]

Hendrick's got some goalscoring ability, doesn't he? I think that's the big thing missing from our midfield - Westwood is tidy but that's pretty much it, Sanchez finds dealing with a brick shithouse of a centre forward less terrifying than the prospect of making a five metre pass, Veretout has lovely vision but still has big adjustments to make, injuries seem to have nullified the goalscoring ability that Gardner showed in the U21s, and Tshibola sounds exciting but I notice he hasn't managed a senior goal yet.

RDM said he wanted some players to leave before more came in - so maybe it's Gana out for £7m to Marseille, Hendrick in for £6m from Derby.

He does chip in with goals from midfield, which as you say, we have been missing for some time.
