Wolfie20 Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Just now, duncanjwitham said: The problem for me is that if Keogh goes, and Wisdom and Davies are coming in, the back 4 are getting worse and worse on the ball. So Thorne is going to be getting less possession out from the back, and going to be less and less effective. And if we're not getting midfielders on the ball and playing into Martin's feet, he's going to be less effective as well. Agreed. For all the qualities of Hughes and Ince (and I would have kept both of them), it could be argued that Keogh is even more influential in how Rowett wants to set the team up, particularly with the return of Thorne and Martin.

So, if we sell Keogh, I'd imagine we would have to sign a right sided centre back, as Davies is a leftie that spent most of his career at LCB.

I wouldn't be at all surprised to see another centre half come in. Gary has a big wad of cash in his chinos and there's plenty of time. It's shaping up. Panic not.

Yes, but from what was said from the signing, it seems like the signing was made with the intent to play right back, coupled with the chance that Christie may leave.

admira Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Replacing the two sales will be tougher given that the selling clubs know we have money to burn. Expect inflated transfer fees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need a Keogh esque signing, not a Hanley esque one, in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently have Davies, Keogh, Pearce, Shackell, Rawson as well as Baird and Wisdom who can fill in there??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuwtfly Posted June 30, 2017 Author Share Posted June 30, 2017 Keogh and Ince would both need replacing IMO, as they are both key parts of our starting XI. Add that to the three players Rowett has already stated he is keen on bringing in and we could be looking at between 3-5 new signings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 I have said it before and I will say it again now, selling ONE of your best players to help 'rebuild' is fine. Selling two or three of your best players is just daft. I would love to be proven wrong but this is a huge gamble from Rowett and it will be used as a stick to beat him with if this goes tits up.

Keogh is the only RCB (not sure about Rawson) that we have. Pearce, Shackell and Davies all play LCB, and as proven in the past, just because you can play well on one side, doesn't mean you can on the other, they get used to where they need to be in their own position. There is still no proof Rawson will ever make it at Derby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arent you forgetting wisdom also can play central defence And with Ince gone he could be replaced with an up and down type of winger who could help cover some of Christies weaknesses who would in turn be able to use his attacking skills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why use a make shift right back, as opposed to purchasing one who has played the position his whole career? Wisdom hasn't had a notable spell at CB in England.

RamsPolls Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Thanks for the memories Tom. Good luck in the Premier league, not sure that it's been the right decision to go to Huddersfield however... Straight back down I think... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
