Summer transfer madness thread

[Goldie.7]

I'd rather get Jack firing than having to manage another erratic, young attack-minded player.

Who cares if he's erratic, for the last 3 seasons Ince's form has drastically improved. 15 goals, 7 assists at the close of 16/17 is not to be sniffed at.

I would offer them Grealish in some sort of deal with clauses in a heartbeat.

He's also 4 years older than Grealish and at 21 was entirely reliant on his pace.  There's not really much point comparing the 2. Green is a more realistic comparison to Ince but is still very young.

I wouldn't see Ince or Grealish being a discussion, if Bruce wants Ince then we would want both.

The long and short with Jack is that he has to earn his shirt, if this time next year he is still fannying around on the periphery he will begin the descent through the divisions to find his level-if he knuckles down he still has a chance as that ability to drift past players is so rare.  He has to persuade the manager to trust him on the pitch, balls in his court

We should also be quickly knocking on Exeter's door and signing up Ollie Watkins.

why should we consider selling a player who suffered a season long injury? Surely De Laet should be given the opportunity to see what he can do?

I still see De Laet as the starting RB to be honest.  Hutton is the one who needs to be moved on.

De Laet is going to take a while to recover from an horrific injury, while it would be madness to put too much pressure on Bree by expecting him to play every game.

I'd keep hold of Hutton until De Laet has proven his fitness.

Plus, I like Hutton and reckon he has got better since Bree turned up.

To be fair to Hutton, he did have a good run of games towards the end of the season.  I would guess he is on the most money out of the three though and that would factor in for me.  I think he has the option on another year though and I would imagine he would take it.

Knocking on their door?......we should be beating the bugger down !, the only way we should miss out on this guy, is maybe to a Premier Lge Club.
Marley & Ollie Watkins ( not related) in the same team ?............................Godzvilla!

[mr underhill]

wouldn't it be  better to see if Davis can cut the mustard?

[kippaxvilla2]

The season starts ten weeks today.  Doesn't seem long.....lots to do.

[wittonwarrior]

its dragging already - in work on a saturday has killed me today

[ozzjim]

Watkins does look like one well worth adding to the squad.

[Tony Erdington]

If its between leeds and us, Ollie wont have a problem, who to choose. it will be clarey blue.

Blues want Elphick as Harry's first signing
