I keep hearing that we're also still after a left back. As Warnock is doing very well, that could mean that Clement wants a quicker, fitter player there to provide width. Maybe we'll look something like this in February Carson Christie Keogh Shackell Olsson Thorne Butterfield Johnson Ince Afobe Bent I do like the look of this, and it would suit Hughes when he returns (based on his excellent performance in the diamond against Villareal), as well as Bryson who would have lots of freedom to get in and around the forwards. I don't think the lack of width would be a problem because Christie loves to bomb on and Lowe/Olsson would get up and down as well. Whilst Warnock isn't exactly dynamic, he still offers a little bit going forward, so he would be adequate if we didn't sign another left back and if Lowe isn't ready; I would imagine we would probably just focus more of our attacks down the right side. One change I would make would be Martin for Bent because I think Martin would work well with a pacier partner and he wouldn't have as much responsibility to always be the one to hold the ball up. It would also suit Bent and Weimann as strikers because they could use their pace to get in behind and cause trouble (especially Weimann) as they wouldn't have to worry about being a target man (something which Bent has to do in a 4-3-3). The only problem would be finding a place for Johnny Russell, who I love for his passion and determination and who is good out wide but I don't rate him as a Championship striker.

maydrakin Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 The problem with this theory is why would we be looking to bring in an out and out winger, in Camara, if the plan is to abandon wingers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robglosta Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Afobe is 6/4 to sign for Palace, mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As soon as Palace sign a striker I wouldnt be sprised to see Gayle join us on loan. Palace been linked with Afobe, Austin and Remy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gandalf's shin pads Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 One of the posters on the Wolves forum is claiming he has heard £8 million plus Russell. Says they, apparently, had a bid knocked back in the summer but that Kenny Jackett remains keen... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Weimann is worth £2mil then Russell easily is too. If we were to offer Russell, although I'd hope we wouldn't, I would want at least a couple million off the fee.

CapeTownRams Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Think that's the point and gist of what he is saying......basically 10m but if u throw Russell in then we will do a deal at 8m. Which is your 2m. Don't believe that rumor though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even with signing camara we still wouldn't have any real out and out wingers. Camara has played most his career in a front two it seems. Can't say anybody in our squad is an actual out and out winger, maybe ince is about as close as you get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
