Leicester Ram Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 Always try to pick up a player with high potential when their stock is low. Exactly what we did with Ince, Martin and recently Wisdom, to great success. I understand that we don't need him this season but Davies is 33, we can't plan the teams future around him. We have the oldest squad in the league, as much as I think we have a really good chance of promotion this season, we can't bet it all on this group then find ourselves stuck with exclusively older players down our spine. Caulker's had his troubles in the past but he's been really progressive by speaking about them in the media and tackling them head on. Now more than ever, I feel that Derby's back to being a healthy, stable club for players to come to after a hectic few years. Not only are we settled with a good, young manager and heading in the right direction, but Rowett's man management seems excellent. The squad seems really happy, players who've struggled (I'm particularly thinking of Weimann) now seem happy, confident and are producing on the pitch. This would be a great landing spot for Caulker. No pressure to jump straight into the first team, a great environment for him to rehabilitate and two genuinely outstanding professionals in Davies and Keogh to learn off. The only issue is obviously the squad size but if there was any way of shifting out Shackell and maybe Pearce on loan, I think this would be such a good chance for Caulker to turn his career around and Derby to get their hands on a talented, young CB.

thekingofbuxton Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 I agree this could potentially be a very good move, especially if we offload Shackell (likely I presume). I suppose Pearce might be looking for a move away as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrowram Posted December 29, 2017 Share Posted December 29, 2017 I don't know much about him except that he didn't make it at Tottenham and was relegated with Cardiff and QPR. Is he any good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So why don't QPR want him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably doesn't feature in Holloways' plans and a substantial wage off their payroll which they can use elsewhere. Interesting that he still has over 6 months left on his contract so could be he's already sorted with another club to go to - just hope it's not us.
