Grey Fox Posted 7 January 2013 Share Posted 7 January 2013 I agree as temp cover he is fine. However, with him being temp cover I think this has brought about a complacency to Konchesky's game which has seen him drop off his level from last season. He needs real competition for his place at LB and temp cover in the form of Schlupp don't cut it. In this window though I still see CM, CB, LW, LB (in that order of priority) required. However I only think we'll get one in this window out of those. Said a week ago, we need five but we'll end up with two. One down with Wood, one to go. I agree with your order of priority (now and a week ago). So hopefully we bring in a CM next, then keep working through the list. I would only bring in another left back if we had already done the other three. I can see us only making one or two more signings in this window as well. Would like to see us shift some dead wood to make room for these though. (Wellens, Danns, Gallagher) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmayne7 Posted 7 January 2013 Share Posted 7 January 2013 Since Konchesky has looked past it in a lot of games this season, yes I do. Schlupp was doing fine then had one shocker against Leeds and he's barely been sighted since. Schlupp is definitely capable of doing a job there but he will be wasted as a full back. Has so much more to offer going forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Konch is still as effective as ever - I just think he's the victim of setting his own high standards so now an excellent performance is viewed as ' the standard.'

Walker Posted 7 January 2013 Share Posted 7 January 2013 He's absolutely gash according to a mate who supports Burnley. He was about their 4th choice winger according to my mate, so God knows why we'd want him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs real competition for his place at LB and temp cover in the form of Schlupp don't cut it. I don't think it's complacency, I just think Konchesky is rapidly deteriorating as a footballer now unfortunately. I'd definitely want us to replace him, regardless of whether we got promoted this season or not. His delivery's pretty good, but he's a bit too much of a liability for me now. Schlupp is definitely capable of doing a job there but he will be wasted as a full back. Has so much more to offer going forward Does he? Apart from that hattrick in the cup against Rotherham, he's never really shown he can cut it as a striker in this league - he had plenty of sub appearances under Sven to make an impact too.

mackiepas Posted 7 January 2013 Share Posted 7 January 2013 pearson may be able to get the best out of him, would make a better squad player/option than Gallagher. Give it a rest with Gallagher witch hunt. Sick of hearing, so called, Leicester fans boo and slag him off at every opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grewks Posted 7 January 2013 Share Posted 7 January 2013 Still can't believe people are debating this, 300k for a former england u21 international, who was a very good player under pearson. GET HIM IN! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bettsj2 Posted 7 January 2013 Share Posted 7 January 2013 Is Marshall ready for the scrap heap now then? The critisism Marshall is getting is ridiculous. He's getting back to form and his last couple of games he's performed well. In 3-4 games time, he'll be banging them in again from 35 yards.

Fox92 Posted 7 January 2013 Share Posted 7 January 2013 Seems to have dropped since we last wanted him, obviously went to Burnley for a few months. Did well under Nige, England under 21 so has the potential but he didn't want to come earlier in the season before moving to Burnley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dannythefox Posted 7 January 2013 Share Posted 7 January 2013 If its 300k yes thats a good deal but he's done nothing since Pearson left Hull. Hes was shit against us when he played for Burnley as well and I would be very surprised if he was to get in the starting 11. If were off loading Gally, Wellens, Danns they bring him in for the squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where he has been and how he has played has nothing to do with anything. He was one of hull's best players under NP, so get him in and replicate the same form and he will be a great signing.

KFS Posted 7 January 2013 Share Posted 7 January 2013 Love how quite a few have said that he was shite since Pearson left Hull, and then go on to say how they wouldn't like him to sign. Surely that statement speaks for itself. 300k for a player who would do well under Pearson. Even if he's a squad player there would be so much strength in depth, something we need for the run-in. Bring the lad in and give him a chance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
