Animal is a Ram Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 http://www.derbytelegraph.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/ryan-woods-derby-brentford-sunderland-1025272?service=responsive Always admired the guy, but would he displace one of Huddlestone/Thorne/Ledley? Linked with yet another centre-mid. I don't want to admit it but it makes me suspect we won't be offering Thorne a new contract Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo jones Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Yes please, if you are playing with 2 DMs I don’t think 4 is too many to have in the squad. It would also see 2 over 30 and 2 younger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brady1993 Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 I really rate the guy and think he would give us a different option in midfield but I'm actually a little surprised by this rumour as to me it appears that Rowett tends to favour midfielders who are bit more physical.

Yes he's very good at protecting the defence very skillful strong good passer but not one to go over the halfway line to often Will we get him no he's been linked with every Championship club for months Brentford have very rich ambitious owners but its footy never rule anything out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edinburgh ram Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 I don’t quite understand us being linked with more another cdm. Huddlestone, Ledley, Thorne, Johnson, Baird (if needed), Hanson? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerry Daly Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Well lets not forget we have shipped out 3, Hughes, Bryson and Butterfield and brought in one, Ledley. We also can't count on Thorne's fitness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harrowram Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Johnson will have completed 3 years of a four year contract by the end of the season, Baird will be out of contract and I am not sure if Hanson is good enough or whether Thorne will ever be fit enough.

RadioactiveWaste Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 I went to Brentford away and he was MOTM by far that day, composed, ran their midfield, looked a good player. But then, we were awful that game after going one up on about five min. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anag Ram Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 He is the most exciting name mentioned on here do far. Nice to have youth in the midfield and a natural conduit between defence and attack, whereas both Ledley and Huddlestone are more defensive minded. Gives us a more natural 4-3-3 if we want it. I would say that we effectively play 4-3-3 whenever Johnson plays in the same team as any two from Ledley, Huddlestone and Thorne. Hope we get him.

Ambitious Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 I imagine they would want £5m+ for him. Notoriously bad window to sign players, especially when the team still have aspirations of a top six finish. Brentford aren't short of a few bob either.

Yes your right they don't need the money You still have to fancy them to hit the playoffs certainly best footballing side in division Can't see them selling if they did think they were talking £10million a few weeks ago So that's us out Personally I would like Vella in from Bolton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
