dabber Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 According to the ever relaible Daily Mirror Blackpool centre-half Rob Edwards is set to sign for Derby on loan for the rest of the season. The Wales international, who started his career as an apprentice at Aston Villa, has been on the fringes of Ian Holloway’s side and is keen for more first-team action. The Rams hope to agree terms later today to take Edwards into the Championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CumbrianRam Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Wasn't he on loan here before from Villa? Around the end of the John Gregory era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdinburghRam Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 really don't see the point of this if it's true, don't think he's any improvement on our current CB's Plus he's only played 4 times this season (losing 4, conceding 14) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcsilks Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 really don't see the point of this if it's true, don't think he's any improvement on our current CB's Plus he's only played 4 times this season (losing 4, conceding 14) He can also play at right back and will likely be better defensivly than Brayford. Who knows, if Clough is in favour of reverting back to a 4-4-2 then he might go with Brayford at right midfield and Edwards at right back. It gives us options which we're short of at the moment so this addition would certainly improve our squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davenportram Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 How close is Barker to a suspension? How many fit centre halfs do we have? How crap have we been defensively? How much competition have we had for places at the back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boycie Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 lets get loads of players in again for a 442 system, and next year leave them out due to changing the system again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davenportram Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 We need centre halfs for whatever system we play. Don't think Bearyford will be pushed into midfield. Don't forget this is only a loan, he may well nit be here next season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davenportram Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Talking sense makes a change for me it will come to a natural end soon enough don't worry. Just read that Leacock picked up a knock in the cup match last night. We could be down to 2 fit central defenders plus big miles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NothernRam Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 How crap have we been defensively? You should ask Clough. What are they doing on the training pitch? defense is getting worse season by season. Most of current defenders signed by Clough. They are pathetic at least. Brayford is not defender. Anderson - who? Buxton - why? Roberts - donkey. Barker - shocking this season. Ayala - the savior... untill he's injured again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Teale Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Who said we dont need centre halfs? We havent exactly been very good at the back have we really this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NothernRam Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 How much competition have we had for places at the back? According to Clough we had a lot of options at the back. RB: Brayford, Green, Leacock. CB: Barker, Leacock, Ayala, Addison, Brayford, Anderson, Buxton. LB: Roberts (a very good left back), Pearson.

Gary Teale Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 I dont think Barker has justified his place at all on this seasons form, he has been at fault for many goals and doesnt look solid unless the ball is hit long where he can go and head it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the moment Barker and Ayala - Leacock went off last night with a knock no word if it is bad or not. Addison as cover. Also the full back cover you mention are not competition, but cover in the case of injury arent they, except for Leacock they have only been played their in the case of injury and not form. Clough has said on the Paul Hayes statement in the DET that he wants a nother center back who can cover full back as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
