Bardsley Gone to Stoke

Andreas Beck is a very deceny RB mate, bit of pace as well.

I'm actually quite surprised he's never moved from Hoff.

 

Bards has been a good servant to the club, but not sorry to see him leave, we need footballers at the club with the style Gus prefers and we have to move on. I too, like Vergini at full back, as he seems to be more comfortable in that position, having looked a little vulnerable in the middle in his first few games. He needs more games before going into the middle if that is his best position.

 

So now we're left with 1 right back who's really a centre back and who I'm unconvinced about. The squad rebuild is going well.

 

There's months left and we already suspected Bardsley would be going .........

 

I suspect Gus may have driven him down to Stoke himself.

Was he not conspicuous by his absence until the Swansea game?

 

Not bothered at all & hopefully Larsson will be next.

 

Exactly so.

We wanted/needed a clearout.
Well I`m not complaining it`s started.

 

That's true but I fear that we are heading into another massive rebuild - went well last season. Bardsley's a decent Prem fullback and Virgini's not even ours yet. There are much more pressing problems without making another.

 

good start. the fact he signed a long-term deal at stoke says it all to me. all he's interested in. and hes a very limited footballer

 

Clearing the decks to get some good players in.
That`s what I think anyway.

Has Vaughan gone or is he still hanging about?

 

wasnt he out of contract anyway?

 

Dunno mate, that`s why I asked. It`s getting harder to keep track.

We might need a thread of definite comings and goings rather than the rumours so we can see exactly what`s happening.

 

Canny idea

 

Bloody hell, how many new players are we going to need this summer?

Buying an entire new squad again isnt going to help us in the short term.

 

Do this as a closed thread GC and just update the initial post, use it as a reference point, or again, all will get lost in it

Open it, update it, lock it. But keep visible to all.

 

Not bothered by Bardsley leaving and would be bothered if Larsson left. Also wouldn't be bothered if Larson stayed as he isn't a bad squad player

 

right, the job`s yours.

I would suggest `ins` & `outs`
definites only.
loanees going back don`t count.
loanees coming in do count as they weren`t here before but only if confirmed. As long as it`s clear it`s a loan.
promotions from the development would count.

there`s a few in the `out` box already to get you started.

get on it lad.

 

I'd add that I'd make it a simple one post list, rather than adding articles, that way you'd STILL have to search

 

Ok
