McNair has played entirely at Centre Back this season, and has been one of our best players. We need a centre back in even if we keep McNair, we'd need 2 if we sold him, not another midfielder. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
mendieta420 1,006 Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 Makes more sense for Wing to leave Link to post Share on other sites
Weasel 966 Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 (edited) I'd be furious if we sold Paddy to be honest. Obviously a quality player and has probably been our standout player of the season so far. His versatility will also be extremely valuable during this crazy season. Would much rather sell Wing who I don't believe is cut out for this level. 7 Link to post Share on other sites
AllBoro10 2,235 Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 If wing does leave and we sign Mowatt I would be happy as it’s an improvement 4 Link to post Share on other sites

I was just trying (obviously poorly) to make sense of being linked with another central midfielder and that Paddy is one of most saleable assets, so keeping tabs on Mowatt, as an option in case a bid comes in for Paddy. I'd be surprised if selling Wing would fund buying Mowatt. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Whether anyone can coach the rest of his game up to an acceptable standard is debatable - particularly passing - but Warnock has a better chance than anyone of developing whatever potential he has. Remember people insisted Traore was a headless chicken, shouldn't be a footballer, was never going to learn at Boro if he hadn't learned at Barcelona, etc. I know Wing isn't even in the same stratosphere in terms of raw talent, but he could be a useful impact sub as the opposition tire, and he gives defenders a new threat to worry about in terms of shooting from range, which the rest of our squad is pretty awful at. I'd like to see Warnock work on Wing's overall play this season and then take stock next year. If we really couldn't sell him even at that point, we could always release him at the end of his contract. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I agree you make a good case but Wing is attacking midfielder who should have credentials including reading the state of play, passing and receiving and he lacks consistency in all departments. NW over time may get the best out of him but does he want to invest in a guy who can’t pass especially as he wants four strikers on the books. Link to post Share on other sites
Oldham boro 64 Posted October 7, 2020 Share Posted October 7, 2020 I don't think we can afford to sell or loan out anyone at the moment as our squad is very thin. We need to get some loan players in asap. Utb. Link to post Share on other sites
