Only thing I'd say about Winchester is that it's clear he was good craic in the dressing room and all the lads loved him. Hope the vibe doesn't change. Mowbray definitely has a job on his hands keeping all these lads happy.
Aye well liked bloke and liked to help with local charities and such. Has been quiet today for us. Shame a deal or 2 didn't get made. Even mowbray thought it would happen as per conference. Overall we have to be happy with business I feel. See how the new recruits get on and settle in.
Our squad last time we were in the Championship. Would you take any of these ahead of our potential starting 11? Jason Steele Lee Camp Robbin Ruiter Max Stryjek Billy Jones Bryan Oviedo Paddy McNair Brendan Galloway John O'Shea Tyias Browning Adam Matthews Donald Love Lamine Koné Jake Clarke-Salter Marc Wilson Lee Cattermole Jonny Williams Jack Rodwell Kazenga LuaLua Callum McManaman Duncan Watmore Aiden McGeady Darron Gibson George Honeyman Lynden Gooch Ethan Robson Elliot Embleton Ovie Ejaria Ashley Fletcher Josh Maja Joel Asoro
Always interest in him. Was worried throughout the summer. Time to hit him with a big payrise and a 3-4 year deal. No pissing about with this option of extra year etc.
Id probably take Kone above Batth out of what is seemingly our starting eleven currently at least. Probably Cattermole above Evans as well but that’s more about my love for Cattermole than a downer on Evans
McNair as an option, the current watmore and think that’s about it, we’re miles ahead of that lot now thankfully
A fit Paddy McNair for O'Nien. I'd always try to find a place for Cattermole but he doesn't fit this system as well as Evans. I forgot several of them played for us.
I’m disappointed to see winniesta go, if only because he’s possibly even the next in line to play that RCB role if O’Nien gets injured. I guess / hope we’ve had a positive update on Ballard in that he’s not out until January
