To be fair their moneyball business model is to buy cheap based on stats and make a tidy profit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not played that shit since 2013. Anybody want to help Buzzer out, he'll be having sleepless nights otherwise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STUHILL Posted 3 August 2018 Share Posted 3 August 2018 Brentford fans rate him extremely highly. Starting to see why we are interested if their reviews are anything to go by. They say he is very composed, can pass, bring it out from the back, and is very quick for a CB. They rate him higher than Mawson and believe he will be their Sessegnon! They don't want to sell, but believe an offer of £15m plus several big add ons, will likely be accepted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cadno'r Cymoedd Posted 3 August 2018 Share Posted 3 August 2018 (edited) I posted a few days back that this boy is class and going to be a star. Would be mega signing. Bournemouth tried and failed. Edited 3 August 2018 by Cadno'r Cymoedd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big_Nige Posted 3 August 2018 Share Posted 3 August 2018 Whether true or not I think a big thing for me with our centre backs is succession planning. Wes, as a top flight regular starting centre back (as much as it pains me to say) is probably finished. Big Harry is being looked at by every top club in the northern hemisphere. And as good as Evens is, he doesn’t scream long termism. This is a guy I’ve heard positive things about, although being touted as the next John Stones as a positive is debatable I suppose! We need to seriously look at this area of the squad. Getting someone like this in would be ideal. Not going to demand game time but will be ready to step in to a void next season. Burnley did something very similar with James Tarkowski. Would be happy with this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sort of profile that would should be looking at. Come here as third choice to Maguire and Evans and get a fair amount of games. 6,3", quick, composed, that's a lot to work with.

MPH Posted 3 August 2018 Share Posted 3 August 2018 He does sound eerily similar to Maguire. His long term replacement maybe? Signing with a view of the batton being passed next summer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovejoy Posted 3 August 2018 Share Posted 3 August 2018 (edited) He's tidy, but that is a lot. Frustrating for the likes of Johnson, Knight and Hughes if true. Edited 3 August 2018 by Lovejoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Signing with a view of the batton being passed next summer? That's the scent I get off this. But we'd be buying Sheffield Maguire, not Hull Maguire. Pretty risky to think he could be ready in a year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If any of those had similar potential we probably wouldn't be trying to buy this lad. History tells us that the likely career path of Johnson, Knight and Hughes will be probably League One players when they're 27yo. I've not seen much of any of them so it isn't a judgement based on my opinion of their playing ability but statistically very few players come through academies to be PL footballers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
