I don’t dislike Wilks. I certainly think he could do more but he has some talent and he’s well-liked by the players apparently. I wouldn’t be too upset if he went though. Like someone said, 19 league goals in League One would’ve commanded a 7 figure sum last summer and he’s still young. Wednesday would be a good move for him.
I’d prefer to see him through the centre, he’s always looked like that lazy CF that’s got an eye for goal, over a lazy winger who just gives up with other duties when he’s cut inside & had a shot!
I’d like to hang on to Wilkes this window. There is a talented player in there, but poor attitude. Last season may just be the wake up call he needs to kick on, realising it’s possibly his last opportunity to progress his career. I’m sure some of the new signings wouldn’t put up with his ball hogging. Also he may benefit from a change in coaching. I’m sure with the extra subs, he could get opportunities.
It's as believable as someone saying Hull City won't win the League, FA Cup double and qualify for Europe this season when we all know we will.
If we can get £14 million, take it all day long - I don't subscribe to the view that he doesn't put a foot wrong - silly penalties, often out of position, some questionable decision making and can't head the ball when we're attacking - £14 million, yes please but I'd be very surprised if it's true
£14 million is a decent price but to Boro i don't think so, surprised one certain club has not come in to test the water yet.
Interesting. As I thought, it was the terms of the deal, not the fact he was going to have to fight for his place that was the issue.
Mills has stood out this pre season. I wonder if they plan on keeping him around or loaning him to league one/two. We currently have 4 senior CBs for 3 positions, so he would likely get chances.
I really like Fleming but watching the Fernabace game (admit not much of it) thought Elder looked our best player.
