    I guess there's not too many players who would be content to be 4th choice CB.

    Jack has ability, he’s just not delivered. Now if Ralph has sat him down and told him to concentrate on his game, training and focus, believing he can sort him out, then fine by me.

    The Jack I’ve seen last two seasons is not for me.

    1. New signing
    2. Bednerak
    3. Yoshida
    4. Vestergaard
    5. Stephens

    Could well be settling for 5th - too many imo, especially whilst trying to reduce wages. Unless of course we are planning on going with 3 CBs

    He might improve a lot with Austin gone too...

    He needs to play alongside a leader, not playing as the leader himself.

    So, in sum...

    Lose the dealer, find a leader.

    Last thing I heard was Stephens was on the out list. The only thing I can see is Ralph wants to see if he knuckles down with his drinking buddy gone?

    He needs to take **** more seriously and realise he still has 8yrs max in football and not to waste it. While people like Austin are near the end of theirs

    He still has a good chance of developing into a decent Premier league player, Perhaps this pre season he does a JWP.
    He COULD be a starting CB if he kept out doing the stupid mistakes. We will see.

    Wonder how many players we'll sign tomorrow.

    We should leave a few alone otherwise the rest of the clubs won't have anyone to buy.

    We have to focus on getting the players out who aren't committed now, Austin, Soares and Hoedt, I'd be tempted to do a Osvaldo on Hoedt too, Just to get rid. Major disappointment.

    What a day.

    Not been this excited since we signed Tommy Forecast and Anthony Pulis in 2008.

    We've had plenty of CBs like that that went on to become very popular. Claus and Jose spring to mind, Yosh close third.

    Fonte's cloak has well and truly gone now, and its been replaced by the all seeing eye. I feel a little sorry for Jack, this is going to be some ask.
