It's not, but it's also not a position we're short in either in terms of numbers. Now if Johnson or Butterfield were also to leave as well as Bryson we would need to look at bringing in a replacement but just the one. 4-2-3-1 appears to be the favoured formation, with Huddlestone, Johnson, Butterfield, Hanson, Thorne on the comeback and Elsnik knocking on the door you can't argue the numbers are not there. Would we like better yes, but that's football. The numbers must come down though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan O'Meara Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 At the start of the summer I thought Rowett might try for David Davis, who to me always looked like Birmingham's best player under him. Will be interesting to see if he becomes an active target should Bryson leave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numbers yes, quality no. Thorne, Huddz and Elsnick for one spot of the two and who else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We now find ourselves in a position where the said player might go out on loan and be better than any of the players we have bought over the past few years . How the hell have we managed to regress this far ,tragic. He's past his peak ? Really ? Lets write players off at 30 oh dear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said, would we like better yes, but we need to reduce the numbers and you can only do that by moving players on that other clubs are interested in. It is what it is a great man once said.

It is what it is a great man once said. It's then up to Rowett to make the best of what he has - perhaps he shouldn't have told some he couldn't shift that he wanted them out? You cannot expect anything much from a midfield we have currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ignore Shackell, went to find a source looks like it was Nixon, thought I saw something in the DET, maybe not. As for telling those who can leave, why wouldn't he tell them? Isn't that part of the process so their agents can start putting their name out there to clubs? Might not be a brutal you can piss off we don't want you, more of a look I don't think I can guarantee you game time, we wouldn't stop you leaving if you find another club.

Of course you should tell them, if you can get them to go. What will he get out of the ones he can't shift is the point. He was clear about what he'd do, have them train with the U23s I believe is what he suggested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nuwtfly Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Shoot me down if you like, but if Bryson leaving (on loan or on a permanent) opens up an opportunity for young Callum Guy to come through, then I'm all for this. We've got a young lad out at our club who could well be the long term answer to our problem of not having a workhorse, battling central midfielder in the side. Once he's fully fit, I'd love to see him given a chance next to Huddlestone/Thorne. But for that to happen, something's gotta give... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilentRam Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 A few fans seem to think Bryson, Martin, Russell are the Championship's greatest players. They are not going to help take us up. It will not be popular but these players are viewed highly because they play for our club. In the current market, the only player who would command any fee is Martin and even his price will not be too high given his attitude at Fulham last year. I am sure I will get the standard get 'behind the players' but maybe fresh starts for two of those three will help both parties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsmini Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Bryson has openly said he wants to finish his career at Derby, come back from injury , and starting too push for a place in the first 11. I'm no expert but I'd be surprised if he is open to a loan move. When is Shacks moving to Hull? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MackworthRamIsGod Posted August 28, 2017 Share Posted August 28, 2017 Why weaken an already pretty pants midfield by letting our most mobile midfielder leave? If at the end of last season you were told we would sell Hughes and loan out Bryson and only bring in Huddlestone you would think it were madness.
