Popular Post Corky Posted 31 January 2020 Popular Post Share Posted 31 January 2020 We needed another CB option and we're getting one with good Premier League experience who has had a good couple of seasons on loan with a fairly cheap price if we want to take him permanently. January is never going to be an easy window, a sensible signing like this could get us something before we look further in the summer. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think this is great or exciting but neither do I think it's a bad idea. What a load of rubbish we lost because we didn't take our chances and there goalkeeper made some outstanding saves. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the line everyone spins, but Saiss plays LCB for Morocco regularly and Dendoncker has played RCB for Belgium a few times (though is definitely a DM). It's not as if they've been chucked in there with no previous. Boly is back now any way and will likely continue at RCB with Saiss staying put. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your system is unique though, your success seems to me that to overcome not really having any attacking central midfielders in a defensive system, you provide overload from very athletic outside centre halves who can push on and help drive attacks forward. This is effective as both Saiss and Dendoncker can play some quality football. I love watching yours and Sheffield Utd's system when in full flow against the so called big teams. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frany104 Posted 31 January 2020 Share Posted 31 January 2020 (edited) I think this is a great signing. He’s solid and has Prem experience and by all accounts is a good character. If he’s coming to be backup we couldn’t ask for anymore really. A new signing always lifts the mood too.

Nicolo Barella Posted 31 January 2020 Share Posted 31 January 2020 4 hours ago, AjcW said: Just joking mate, found it funny that you went from calling him awful... to saying you'd rather have someone else... to saying it doesn't matter.... to saying he'd be an okay signing I get it now! Yeah I can see why that seemed a bit odd . He's not necessarily awful, just had an awful season so far from what I gather, Nuno playing Saiss and Dendoncker over him whenever possible. I'd rather have Vestergaard because he fits the "Morgan" job Rodgers has been using to choose out games perfectly, whilst having performed at a high level for longer and more consistently. But it doesn't really matter as he's just a warm body to play in the worst case scenario for less than six months, so if he's for cheap it's a fine signing.

Yeah, but last season Bennet played a lot more didn't he, losing his place to players who were in the same squad the whole time isn't great.

Babylon Posted 31 January 2020 Share Posted 31 January 2020 (edited) 2 hours ago, ThingsCouldGetMessi said: Ryan Bennett was a regular for 1 and a half seasons for Wolves in the Premier League. We all know Wolves have done well since being promoted and surely he contributed to that. Bennett can't be as bad as many on here seem to think. This is a loan deal and we should be open minded. Let's see how he does. We might be surprised. He isn’t remotely bad, it’s just not some fancy foreigner who nobody knows anything about. People like them!

MC Prussian Posted 31 January 2020 Share Posted 31 January 2020 All this outrage over a 4th choice centre-back signing. He's English, won't cost the world and adds experience.

TeaMen Tom Posted 31 January 2020 Share Posted 31 January 2020 No one good enough to start would come during the Jan window knowing he'd have to sit behind Evans and Soyuncu. This was the kind of move I figured they'd make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dylanlegend Posted 31 January 2020 Share Posted 31 January 2020 Always good to read the selling clubs forum, not a bad word to say about him, most fans are annoyed they are letting him go. Must be a good thing. I’m surprised Wolves are letting him leave as they have one of the smallest squads in the league. We must have offered a pretty good deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluetintedspecs Posted 31 January 2020 Share Posted 31 January 2020 Low risk, insurance loan deal, Prem experience and dependable by the sound of it. Where's the fire? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clever Fox Posted 31 January 2020 Share Posted 31 January 2020 The more I think about it this could have a positive upside, similar to Evans signing. If he's good we get an experienced player with a few years left in him. If he;s not up to it then we send him back to Wolves and move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
