    On the ****ing button Carmine.

    Too bad some people will still call you a deluded idiot for saying such things though. The fact these people call themselves fans is questionable.

    I see people on Facebook slagging them on a regular basis, it's completely beyond me, I assume they're just desperate for some sort of rivalry (to be fair, they tend to be the younger lads).

    West Brom will reject offers for unsettled defender James Chester

    Tony Pulis meets £8million summer signing for talks after slow start to his Albion career

    please log in to view this image


    Tony Pulis will reject any bids for West Bromwich Albion's £8million defender James Chester in January.

    Pulis met with Chester for talks on Monday after the unsettled summer signing admitted his frustration over a lack of first-team chances.

    Chester has only started one Premier League game since his move from Hull City in July and suggested that he will consider his future when the transfer window reopens in the New Year.

    The Wales international fears his hopes of appearing at Euro 2016 for Chris Coleman's squad will be damaged by his struggles to nail down a place at the Hawthorns.

    But Pulis will turn down any offers for the 26-year-old and insists he is not for sale.

    He said: "James wants to play and I understand that but he's a very important member of the squad.

    "I've spoken with him and he's absolutely fine. There are no problems and we are looking forward to this weekend's game against Arsenal."

    Chester is West Brom's most expensive signing for a defender but has struggled to force his way into a back four that has kept the most clean sheets of any Premier League team this year.

    "He's a very important member of the squad"

    3 league appearances since August suggests otherwise Pulis, you lying sod.

    He will have his day at some point this season; he's got to make sure he takes it.

    As much as I think Pulis is a football dinosaur, and stand by the fact that Chester is their best defender..... Most clean sheets in the PL suggests that their back 4 is doing a cracking job. I just can't get my head round why Pulis wanted him? It just doesn't fit.

    I don't really understand all the fuss over this. We accepted £8m for Chester which was an offer that we would have been daft to turn down at the time for a player who would currently be our third choice Centre half (behind Dawson and Davies) with Bruce and Maguire also available. He's a good lad but is no longer our player so let's move on.

    You can't say he would currently be our third choice, as odds are we would have started with him & Dawson, meaning Davies would have either left or not played.

    Chester would be ahead of Davies this season, Davies was poor at times in the Prem whereas Chester looked accomplished, if he hadn't got injured we would have stayed up in my opinion.

    A fine post, it's a shame so many of our fans took Chester for granted, the lad was a purring Rolls Royce of a defender

    It is all a matter of opinion - but Davies was always ahead of Chester in Steve Bruce's eyes when Davies was at the top of his game & this season I reckon we've seen Davies back to his best which is why I think Chester would have been third choice. It's all pretty hypothetical, however, as Chester is no longer our player.

    You've made that up .......... Davies was on the naughty step last season, CD was behind both Chester and his (SB's obv) lad.

    i dont think it was down to his ability & more to do with his social media skills! ( or his agents )?

    I don't know the ins and outs of the situation, he certainly wasn't ahead of Chester in the pecking order, that is a FACT (as some say).

    He'd pissed SB off I think? But on form id pick Davies over Chester! Selling Chester was very good business for everyone involved!

    He looked shaky and nervous (Davies) when I saw him last season as if he was a mistake ready to happen

    If you read what I actually said you'll see your error. Davies is back to his best this year and when he was previously at his best, he was picked ahead of Chester by Steve Bruce.

    They were a pairing, not one over the other
