On the face of it you wouldn’t say he seems to have any more chance of forcing his way into our team than he did at Brum. He doesn’t exactly look like challenging for one of those three midfield spots this season. No, not really. At least you'd assume that if he was then he'd have played a bigger part in the previous two games. I would guess that if he doesn't force his way in this season then he's probably not going to. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Sounds like he'd be happy with him signing. *Actually scratch that, I've read his reply and he does sound miffed that we were trying to sign him. Absolutely nothing wrong with having players like Jordan Rhodes around your squad, very weird thing to be kicking off over 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Aside from maybe Luke Daniels, Boyd-Munce is the most obvious candidate to be loaned out in probably our whole squad. Presumably just waiting until we have a couple of extra bodies in midfield. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

He's very much in the first-team thinking and so is everyone on that list right now. Every other player we expect to be in our U23s or elsewhere this season is not on that list. Very much looks like a statement from Wilder on the situation we're in. The question from me would be if that situation doesn't change to the tune of 2-3 first-team players by next Saturday, will Wilder name a full bench or a bench with 2 keepers on it, to spite himself in order to continue making this point. Which was my original point - he's moved down into a "first team squad number" status. NB4 claims otherwise but all the press put out at time of his signing was that he was "one for the future" that they had high hopes for, my initial post was simply that they must believe his future is now. I had forgotten about the change back to the U21s at the time though, so that might factor in too. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Ogbeche173 152 Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 £4.5 million for a Premier League striker is not too much, just pay the *** fee. People acting like the transfer market is like it was back in the 90s and 00s Link to post Share on other sites
