Guest MattP Posted 22 July 2011 Posted 22 July 2011 How can you really say when Peltier hasn't played Championship level before? Naughton has gone to Norwich, he isn't at Leicester now, so support Peltier and Pantsil. I'm confident Peltier will be as good as Naughton. Obviously I hope you are right but there is no way Peltier is going to be in the same league as Naughton. Lee Clark is a very good manager and if he had a player capable of the ability Kyle showed last year there is no way we would have picked him up for the price we did. Naughton > Pantsil > Peltier. So yes it's one of the few positions from last season we are weaker in, but Pantsil should be more than good enough to be part of a solid defence in this league.
gazfox9 Posted 22 July 2011 Posted 22 July 2011 Unfortunately for us, Naughton was a victim of his own sucess last season. I dare say, at a guess before we loaned him we'd have picked him up perminantly for 1 or 2 million. After some outstanding performances his price then becomes (apparently) 5 million. Great player, good luck to him. I think Peltier could be great for us, never been overly impressed with Pantsil however. Hope I'm wrong on that.

Other players from lower divisions have had thier chance in the division and did well. Look at Steve Morison for example. I'm not sure about the price tag though. Huddersfield might have wanted the money Because Pilkington has moved to Norwich as well, for instance...
