Mafiabob Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 We bemoaned our midfield at end of the transfer window........ I’d say that it’s been strengthened...... Bryson wouldn’t get a sniff now..... that’s how good they’ve been in the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defensively our midfield is as strong as it's been for quite a few years - perm any w from Huddlestone, Thorne and Ledley. Where I feel we need strengthening is a quality player in front of the DMs' who can move the ball quickly and accurately, as well as chipping in with half a dozen goals a season. Unfortunately, players who fit the bill don't come cheap. For me, neither Clayton or Forshaw fit the bill, in the roles they play and the quality they would bring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Gonzo Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 George looked pretty tired yesterday after 60 mins.... understandably, and both him and huddlestone were immense when considering the calibre of player they were up against. Stating to wince less and less the more challenges Thorne makes. He still looks like he's got some weight to shed and his turning circle isnt what it used to be, understandable considering the nature of his injuries. Happy with Huddlestone, Ledley and Thorne swapping it up, none are that mobile but, vydra or lawrence in front of them, theres pace enough there maybe.

Bryson would have started vs sheff united and possibly played quite a few times in bits and pieces but yes we a a lot better in central midfield now rather than in September 25 minutes ago, Mistaram said: Yes your right they both were very good can't believe were having to even talk about a deal for GT you can't punish a player for his past injuries or what may happen in the future Look at Wiltshire the injuries he's had but he's come through it It will be devastating if they can't offer a satisfactory offer to GT and walks away in June he can talk to any club at the moment and sign a precontract agreement and that will be it He can’t sign a pre contract in England but he can if moving abroad.

Exactly, which is why I said not fitting either the role we need or meeting the quality level - Clayton for the former and Forshaw the latter.

Sexydadbod Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Gary and Thorne have the same agent, now that Gary's future is sorted, which has probably occupied the majority of their agent's work the last 3-4 weeks, we can focus on Thorne getting a new contract?
