Father Ted Posted 29 August 2012 Posted 29 August 2012 Left back/left wing?? And a long throw specialist
Dan Posted 29 August 2012 Posted 29 August 2012 Can't argue with signing a Stoke defender, generally extremely solid. Two things get me a little though. A right back? Really? I thought we'd be sorted there, with Whitbread/SSL back I thought he'd use Moore as cover there, and I know many will disagree after last night, but do we really need another centre half? The second thing, trust me I'm well behind NP but is he panicking a bit? He said last week transfer dealings were done.
Leicester_Loyal Posted 29 August 2012 Posted 29 August 2012 Left back/left wing?? And a long throw specialist Hes a RB.
Happy Fox Posted 29 August 2012 Posted 29 August 2012 I don't get why we are after a RB unless NP is planing on using De Laet as a LB.
Narborough_fox Posted 29 August 2012 Posted 29 August 2012 Played Right-back for Stoke when I saw him. Looked awful. As well as that my Stoke supporting neighbour described him as beyond awful, said he'd be delighted if he left. Very sceptical indeed, especially when we have Moore and De Laet capable of playing right-back.
foxesfan1989 Posted 29 August 2012 Posted 29 August 2012 Stoke fans don't seem to rate him. Looked solid when I have seen him. Hmmmmm
Happy Fox Posted 29 August 2012 Posted 29 August 2012 Last season for Stoke he played mostly RM in the league.
Howard9 Posted 29 August 2012 Posted 29 August 2012 Typing this fellas name in the twitter search and i see alot of stoke fans over the moon with this potential signing, i have a feeling dear chaps we are buying a useless defender, One lass goes as far as to say "The day Ryan Shotton retires from football will be the happiest day of my life" i personally think de laet has his faults but moore can play at RB i can only see shotton being cover, Maybe this could tell us that Moore is off? get MORE defensive cover in due to a player MAYBE departing
Happy Fox Posted 29 August 2012 Posted 29 August 2012 What's Stoke fans problem with him? he played 30 odd games for them last season so if he was that shite why did Pulis play him?

crisp packet Posted 29 August 2012 Posted 29 August 2012 Id say after last nights performaces from our c.bs pearson isnt happy , hence the cover ? As neither looked fit at all .....
1884Fox Posted 29 August 2012 Posted 29 August 2012 Watched a couple of Stokes European games last season and he looked good and I've always rated him. He can play CM, RB, CB, RM, and apparently can play sriker
Mark_w Posted 29 August 2012 Posted 29 August 2012 If anything we need to be moving players on, if this goes ahead we have Whitbread/Morgan/St. Ledger/Moore/DeLaet/Shotton competing for places and a number of those aren't going to be happy if they aren't playing. Still Nigel has a good track record in getting sides doing well at the back, I trust him to sort it out.
TrentFox Posted 29 August 2012 Posted 29 August 2012 Id say after last nights performaces from our c.bs pearson isnt happy , hence the cover ? As neither looked fit at all ..... But "cover" makes no sense, does it ?? It means that if what we already have "fails" again, we then play someone who wasn't good enough to dislodge them in the first place ??? If they aren't better than what we already have then I don't get it ????
kingfox Posted 29 August 2012 Posted 29 August 2012 He is a right-back, right midfield. That's what he played for Stoke last season, there fans don't rate him though. But I think he would be good at this level, I liked the look of him at Stoke on tv games, but Stoke fans obviously think he isn't good enough. Moore might be going then if this signing is anything to go by.
Manc Fox Posted 29 August 2012 Posted 29 August 2012 Think he could be good for us, have watched him with a bit more interest after he was brought up in a transfer thread & he has looked pretty solid & reliable. Not overly exciting but at this level he doesn't need to be. Sign him up Nige!
