You'd have had to be close enough to hear with your own ears surely? Hopefully true though. The new American poster sold him to me, I'd seen Yedlin a couple times but not enough to base a thorough opinion on. Having Yedlin and Christie would give us two full defences which could easily do a decent job at this level. Add a wide player and a striker and our squad is set to go. Still need the correct player in the DM role until GT returns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kernow Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 1 minute ago, Nuwtfly said: Completely agree, Kernow. Add Wells/Kodjia and Mcmanaman and we're flying! Would like either but those are the only two names in question because they're the only two we've gone for. New names could enter the frame that would fit just as well. If we go for Kodjia/Wells then we're basically accepting the fact we are going to have to pay big. Wells will set us about £8mil at least, and you can add a couple more on for Kodjia. However it was mentioned on the forum earlier (can't remember where now) that apparently NP said we had a couple bids rejected for McCormack? Unsure how true that is, but I'd like it to be true purely because absolutely nobody heard of it. We have one bid for Forestieri and it breaks 100 pages, I expect bids for McCormack would have drawn as much interest on the forum. If we're going about our dealings very quietly then we could be signing someone we've only known we were linked to when it was officially announced.

Do we go for a loan from a PL club? We can't sign another CM without letting one go so any permanent DM would be dependent on a buyer for another midfielder. Football Manager moment here, but I would personally go for 4-2-3-1 which would mean another DM needed. Gunnarsson from Cardiff who we were linked with for £2mil would be great business A line up of the following would take some beating in my opinion... Carson Yedlin - Keogh - Shackell - Forsyth Hughes - Gunnarsson/Thorne (Winger) - Ince - Blackman/Russell/Weimann/Camara Martin/Wells/Kodjia/Wilson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was standing next to Dawes who was standing next to Bradley who was doing the interview with Pearson, then chatted with both regarding both players. Dawes then called hq to tell them not to play the interview today as they both aren't announced and to save for Monday morning news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadioactiveWaste Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Wilson's signing was announced on radio derby after the match but yedlin never mentioned. It's possible they were saving both for monday but pushed wilson out tonight to have a good news story. perhaps if we'd lost both would have been announced? Thought we were bidding to buy Yedlin not loan though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BranstonRam Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Just been reading abit on the Manchester United forum about the lad and they think he his quality. I wish the best for the lad, find it mad how people are undermining him before he has donned a Derby County shirt.

The 5 in 25 stat is a bit misleading. His goals for time in the pitch is very good. Everytime I've seen him play I've been impressed and he should get better.

North_Stand_Ram Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 I don't mind signing loanees if there's a chance of a permanent move if successful. This is one of those I reckon. Welcome James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting that they weren't interested in re-signing him? He's got some talent for sure but he went missing a lot during games. It was almost like he was only involved when someone gave him the ball. There didn't appear to be a huge desire to work for the team and go and win the ball back and make something happen. He's young though and that's not uncommon, it's a bit of a jump from U21s football to the Championship. He also looked like he was unwell and knackered all the time. He's not a bad player and he has it in him to make something happen and he's got some decent striking instincts but he was probably a bit too much of a passenger.
