I like Jack Hobbs, that said players come and players go - The club and team remains - If Jack Hobbs doesn't suit Sven then let's do the right thing by him and let him move to a place where he's happy after all he's done alright by us
Hobbs will go. 800K is a bit of a joke though. We need to be ruthless both ways. Not wanting to spend too much cash (such as on Naughton/a striker) is one thing but then to go and let talented players leave for **** money is hypocritical and stupid. We should have got double what they paid for Fryatt and we should be getting double what they're offering for Hobbs. Hobbs, whatever you think about him this season, was player of the season last year. If he is to leave we need to replace him with someone better and preferably, someone who will be with us for the long term.
As soon as Sven has got his replacements, I can see Hobbs being sold but with a higher fee of just over £1m with add ons if Hull get promoted.
I can definitely see this happening, assuming Sven can get replacements in. Sven doesn't seem to rate him but now the loans have all gone we would be a bit light in the centre back department without him.
It will probaly be rejected at the minute. And when we have got some new defenders i reckon Jack will go. I dont want him to go as i think he is one of the best defenders in this league. He just needs a bit of leadership
Svens been a football club manager for a couple of years now - I really can't see him sitting down to write the first team sheet of the season then coming to the awful realisation that he's sold the team and not bought replacements
Did anyone listen to the football forum last night. One fan came on and said that he dont want to watch us play Real Madrid because he dont think we will have a team by then. There is along way to go between now and the season starts. People are on hoilday and dont know which players to keep, sell or loan out. Yes i want us to sign players now but none of the other clubs are making signings so lets just wait now unless we know what we are getting by signing players we had on loan. We already have a relatively big squad at the moment in terms of numbers. Yes some will leave but hey ho Weale, Neilson, Moreno, Gallagher, Oakley, Howard, King, Dyer, Logan, Waghorn, Berner, N'Guessan, Kennedy, Wellens, Lamey, Abe, Moussa, Hobbs, Schlupp, Bamba, Vassell plus a few others are all under contract here so we just need to be patient. Sven knows what he doing
There's no pleasing some people. The players don't report back for training until beginning July so there's plenty of time for new players to come in and I've no doubt Sven will have finalised most of his signings before the players return. The Real Madrid game is a week before the season starts so you would think the team to start the season would be in place. Some people just don't have any faith in Sven or any patience! .
