As I said, financially it's been a big loss for us. But as you say, what's done is done.. and he's gone. Good luck to him. We move on with hopefully lessons learned and more successful players coming in for us
He did get a bit of a raw deal coming here though. He joined at the end of a huge overhaul, where we'd signed loads of midfielders and he was supposedly brought in as a winger. He's not a winger and looks more suited to playing central but there's no pathway there for him.
Hm not sure about that, we've been crying out for a creative mid and playing players like Slater in a more advanced role because there was no one else available so clearly Shota, Dawson and Rosenior didn't see enough from him in training.
The one position we cried out for from Shota being sacked to even now is a more advanced creative midfielder. He must have been an absolute stinker in training to not get a chance
I don't disagree. He's a raw young kid with potential and we were in a relegation battle until very recently. I don't think that's the right environment to gamble on him. I'm not a fan of Slater/Doch in advanced roles moving forwards but there's no denying it helped us get up the table. It's helped us be more solid and we looked a better side than we did 3/4 months ago
Looks like we did at least ask regarding KLP https://www.hulldailymail.co.uk/spo...news/lewis-potter-hull-city-brentford-8079553
Reading that article it sounds like we went in with a permanent bid. A loan would make a lot of sense for them as we've done with Sinik
Would be silly to try to buy him six months after they signed him from us, I would assume it was a loan bid.
Not what Baz is saying, but that's an interesting view. It's a shame KLP seemed so keen to get out of here even with the good times coming, and now doesn't seem keen to come back. Something must have really gone sour.
Once he realises he’s 5th choice winger, in a side that plays without wingers he might change his mind
