I mean we literally don’t play with wingers so what is there for Ameobi to do? It will be like Hernandez again with a square peg in a round hole. Get him home and save some wages. 

Move to LWB? We already have one winger playing there.

Might just be that we’re putting feelers out for numerous players

Absolutely - but I think if Alex Crooks has reported it - there is a level of interest - although not sure what level

Stacey is a RB/RWB is he not? Funny signing if he’s back up to Jones. 

We need back up though, so fits the bill.  No idea if he's any good mind

Seems strange for Wilder to comment on them leaving good players out.. then signing them as backup and leaving them out 🤷‍♂️

I hope us signing these Bournemouth guys aren't opening the door for them signing Tavernier in return..

I’ve come round to the idea of keeping Tav. He has premier league potential, but ability wise he isn’t showing it at the moment, so I think now is the right time to let him go.  
Spence I’d rate higher as Spence has performed more than Tav on a consistent basis and his value has sky rocketed. Tav maybe needs to play in a different team / system to showcase his skill set. But he’s had two pretty average seasons with us back to back (three included Warnocks). I’m not sure he’s commanding a high fee if he goes. 10m tops 

It’s funny how opinions differ in football. I think Tav is the superior player when compared to Spence and by a long way at that. Tav gives so much more than Spence for me.

wouldnt that mean our squad is better if we have good players out of the team?

[Lurker 1,118]

On the note of us going back for former players. George Friend could be returning.

Is that in an academy coaching role

I think that would depend upon how many good players are in the team.

A mate of mine said he saw his wife and kids out in Redcar a week or so back. 
 

A back 3 would help him massively but I think that ship has long sailed, he was finished when he left us never mind now

If we were bringing in a 34 year old backup defender, wouldn't it just make sense to hang on to Peltier?

Friend is left footed...

Yeah, true. I'm still not sure I buy it though.
