Remarkable considering it was achieved with 'calamity' Keogh being carried in the defence ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmberRamber Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 39 minutes ago, Seth's left foot said: Why? We'll sign plenty more and having Thorne, Martin and Forsyth back will strengthen us further, GR knows what we lack and I think we'll be pushing for the top two. Mate thorne martin and forsyth are all starters for me and are some of our best players but we'll need a bit more around them for top two I think. Just that bit extra to get us over the line.

JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Cracking signing this, great partner for Keogh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEL Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Very happy with the signing good player. Now go and find another one who cost the same or less would be excellent tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 This signing is especially pleasing in the context of the likes of Hanley and Flynt being quoted at £5 million. Some good value here on the face of it. If we keep Keogh and Shackell do we really need to spend that money? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll try and forget the home games where we let in 4 from Cardiff and just the three from Bristol City then! Always easier at home games.As for the 3 at Norwich and 4 at Brentford ?

Ramarena Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 57 minutes ago, Kingston said: Curtis Davies is 32 and trust me, since he hit 30, it shows. Steve Bruce lost faith in him, Mike Phelan had no choice but to use him and Marco Silva avoided him. He is now prone to pulling up with injuries after stretching. He'll limp on, because at heart he is not a quitter, and he's a great player with a good footballing brain, but he is nowhere near the player he was. He's free transfer material now, so any money to Hull is a good deal for them. I'd be surprised if he is a regular starter, and even more surprised if he lasts two years, never mind a third option year. Hull would have replaced him anyway, so he's gone looking for one last pay cheque, and found it at Derby. Yet he played 30 games for you last season.

Ashz09 Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Great signing for that fee. Always rated him at Hull. Shame he's 32 but I'm sure he'll be fine. Shackell and Davies are both left sided CB's so most likely Keogh will partner. I'd like to see Shackell back though he was quality for Burnley shame he got "injured" hopefully he comes back in and is hungry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not bad, having the more than any other player in the premier league, for saying he clearly only spent a couple of minutes on the pitch in each game, and he's too old and knackered to stretch for the ball.

RiddingsRam Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 Just a thought , but do you think Davies could possibly have been signed with a back 3 in mind ? Played plenty of times in a back 3 for Hull . Carson Keogh shackell Davies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
