STUHILL Posted 5 September 2017 Posted 5 September 2017 I'm pretty sure this guy was about our 3rd/4th choice CB in this window but it does seem we have been tracking him for a while and hopefully he settles quickly and establishes himself as well as Maguire has in recent games. Wes and Huth have been a spectacular pairing for us, but age has caught up with them and it's time for a new pairing. Hopefully these two will be it. Can't imagine Shakey will drop Wes straight away though and so we may have to wait a while to see Dragovic start alongside Maguire. Perhaps against Liverpool in the cup.
shen Posted 5 September 2017 Posted 5 September 2017 Surely, Walsh's little book will not have any new names in it any longer. At the start of 2021/22 we will probably put in a late bid for Cambiasso again...

I think he may be a stop gap until we can pursue other targets higher up the list next year like Gibson.

Spill the beans! (Not over the little book though, that would make it hard for Rudkin to make out what names are in there)

In other words, players like Silva who we were linked with during Walsh's time here. I'm just saying that the majority of players signed this year were not scouted by Walsh and we were not linked with them when he was here. In other words your point is bollocks. Obtuse pedant.

Classy. I was being light-hearted and tongue-in-cheek. There is no little book, but even if there was, you'd have no clue what's written in it

Apart from iborra we were linked with every player we have signed this year, during SW time at the club.

matty98 Posted 10 September 2017 Posted 10 September 2017 Shakespeare said he'd only trained with the squad for 1 day, that's why he wasn't picked.

Pearson & Walsh were looking at Maguire 5 years ago when he was at Sheffield united. It's fair to say we have tracked his progress over the years and finally got our man.
