The talented Coventry City midfielder has been linked with a host of Championship clubs, including West Bromwich Albion and Bristol City . But the Sky Blues are said to have slapped a £2m price tag on his head, claims the report, with the club keen to keep hold of their man as they push for promotion to the Championship.

Andicis Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Only 26 appearances at league one level, but Coventry fans seem very keen on him. Not convinced central midfield is where we need to strengthen though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ViewsFromTheMiddle Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 So basically we’re battling it out with Forest and Leeds for everyone this window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadioactiveWaste Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 No idea if he's good or not, but surely if we're going to be trying to goad forest and leeds into duff transfers we've got set out heights pooper.

Ambitious Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Quite possibly the least required transfer - a developing central midfielder. I'd be stunned if there was anything in this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Millenniumram Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Ah, the classic let’s link forest, Leeds and Derby to a highly rated player. Standard journalism, and probably nothing in it. Wouldn’t be a player we’d need anyway in centre mid, we’ve got good quality and depth there. 2 mill would be a big risk for a league one player who’s only played half a season as well. At Half a mil or less it might be worth a gamble, but not at that price. He seems highly rated mind, so no doubt someone will buy him and he’ll become a top class player worth 10 mil plus. As is the typical way these things go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember hearing John Percy say a couple of years ago that a story about Derby or Forest (and presumably Leeds) gets more online traffic than one for Everton (and most other smaller PL clubs than them).

GangwayD Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 With quite a few out of contract next season, maybe Westbrooke is someone we are looking at for next season. Fits the criteria so we can build a young, hungry side. Forward planning for once ? Regards Gangway D from the terrace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure a Leeds/Derby/Forest article gets you more clicks than most clubs on the prem! Just the top four, spurs, villa and Newcastle get more!

It's true. Leeds are WAY ahead of Derby and Forest, though. Leeds, in terms of clickbait, are absolute gold. Everton are closer to Derby and Forest than Leeds. Man City too. Leeds are up there with Arsenal, Chelsea, United and Liverpool. I have no idea where their fans are at games, but online they have a staggering presence.
