therealhantsram Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 Bannan could be plausible if Bird goes. I expect Derby to be checking out the available options and making contingency plans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d imagine slot of managers follow the situation of clubs like Wednesday new manager lots of new signings where might certain players fit and take a punt. personally I’d go for Moxon , Tunicliffe (free) or as a wild card Kyle Turner from Scottish championship plays for Partick thistle nine assists and 5 goals from CM /CAM Can’t see Carlisle letting Moxon go at this stage. He’s pretty crucial to their hopes and it would be late to be replacing him. Tunnicliffe would be easier to get but not as mobile as some on here have pointed out. I do feel that we need a midfielder who’s quicker than those we have already. We have some nice footballers but aren’t so great chasing back.

They'll let him go, but would cost something like £750k Jubbs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would smack of Tommy Docherty's 3 Van Goghs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bird push further up and/or a switch to 1 CF when Bannan isn't playing. Still seems unlikely to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bannan creates from a deeper position than 10. I think Bird is only playing that high due to out squad deficiencies in that area. Warne has highlighted we need pace in CM. Not Bannan's forte.

Last season, he was either played as the '10' in a 3412, or an '8' in a 352 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t describe him as a battler either, a very good footballer. Rubbish rumour. Smith - he’d be a great signing. But he heard it from his contact in the Media department 😳 hintonsboots 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well yes he's not by cup of tea. But 11 goals last season. A play off final. Now he's playing National League. Some signing by Oldham for that level though.

Jase116 Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 Talking to a Barnsley fan I work with, apparently he didn’t want to leave, but the board sold him, so basically he was forced out , he said he was an ok player for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
