Ellafella Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Interesting...which way will Tom go? All depends now on wht GR sys to Tom. I put money on Tom coming back to Derby. New challenge, family lives in Nottingham, and suspect he feels he left a shade too soon before. We'll soon see...If Mel could maybe get him over to Moor Farm ...

Liverpool are closing in on an £8m deal to take Robertson to Anfield, while Derby Country have met the £2m release clause in Huddlestone’s contract. While City are resigned to losing Robertson, the Mail understands the club have made Huddlestone an offer of an improved contract on a longer deal, with the onus now on the player to make a decision. Derby, however, remain confident of landing their man. Having already seen Curtis Davies, Harry Maguire, Josh Tymon and Shaun Maloney leave the KCOM Stadium in recent weeks and with Ahmed Elmohamady and Kamil Grosicki likely to follow suit, the departure of Robertson and Huddlestone would leave City in a similar situation to last summer with a threadbare squad Chelsea right-back Ola Aina is new manager Leonid Slutsky’s only senior recruit, with the Russian desperately in need of reinforcements just three weeks out from City’s opening Championship game at Aston Villa on August 5. Huddlestone could be the next to depart after Derby yesterday met the former Totenham Hospur midfielder’s relegation release clause. It would mean a reunion not just with Davies, who left for £500,000 in similar circumstances last month, but a return to the Rams where he started his career as a teenager. With the current internal situation as it is in Hull City FC, they will be one of the biggest contenders for the relegation. I doubt Tom will be interested to play in the League One in the season 2018/19, even he has a more lucrative contract offer from them on the table. Apparently, he has flown from Portugal last night and is doing or has already passed his medical at Derby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. P Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 I would be surprised if Huddlestone would have the heart to play for Hull with all the other departures there. A nice big pay increase would be the only reason for him to stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kamikaze Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Offered an IMPROVED deal? I'm guessing he was already on a fair chunk of wages there? Hope we aren't splashing silly wages around trying to match it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintRam Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 I agree with people who are saying that it doesn't really move us in any direction in terms of identity. He's basically an older, less injury prone Thorne. Having said that, we do need someone to play Thorne's role when he's injured and compete with Thorne when he's not. £2m is an absolute steal. We *kinda* know what our other targets are and getting a couple of them alongside this would help change our identity and it's not like the £2m spent here is going to greatly impede those transfers, where as other DCM targets may do just that. Also, we know we will be losing a few and depending on who those are you'd imagine that would also aid the identity shift. There's an element of romance to his return despite how short his time with us was (in the first team). AND people can finally stop complaining about how we sold Huddlestone for peanuts AND never spent the £2m we got for him. So, if this does go through, it's a yes from me.

That's coming quick, 3 weeks today we'll all be hung over celebrating our 4-1 victory over Sunderland. I would have said 4-0 but now I've cursed us by calling Vaughan rubbish.

The_Sheriff Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 For me I would say here tom we are offering you x amount which puts you in the top 7 highest earners. Hull are offering more but it's your choice now. You can come home to a bigger better club and still get a decent wage or you can stay at a club on the down for more money. i wouldn't entertain trying to match hulls desperate wage offerings.

And I'd finish it off by saying "Platinum in the town centre are replacing Cosmo with their 20% off if we win." That should swing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
