I’ve a feeling it’s a left back, the way when he talked about the difference positions needed that was the first out of his mouth, I may be completely ****ing wrong but it was just a thought
The talk about fans being excited and showing the ambition of the club makes me think attacking player. No matter how good a LB is, it's hard to get excited over. Having said that someone like Ryan Giles is hardly getting a kick for Luton, that would excite me.
That's a different type of **** though. I'm all for more nastiness on the pitch. But Spence sounds like a twat off it and that's something we should avoid
Dunno. My socks might have been twitching if there had turned out to be anything that Toffolo link last year.
Don't know if it makes a difference. The feeling at Derby seems to be they'll get a good fee, potentially more, if it goes to a tribunal at the end of the season. Not sure how likely that would be as I'm no expert on tribunal fees but that's the story at their end.
They're trying to hang on for dear life, despite him indicating he wants away. You'd have thought they'd get more with 6 months on his contract as opposed to just going down the tribunal route once it expires. Was a similar situation with us and Ince - Blackpool valued him at 8m. Tribunal ordered us to pay 1.6 - 2.3m subject to appearances (that he largely didn't make for us).
They will still get a decent wedge from a tribunal as he’s been there since a young whipper and has made a lot of appearances for them.
In this case it likely will, at the very least it gives them the leeway to try hold on to him for 6 months to attempt a promotion push. Both the club and the player are in a win/win situation. Of course, if we turn up with the cash in this window, I expect he will be here. Same for any other championship club.
