Hmm, maybe I should hire an agent and start touting myself as a left back. Free transfer, and only £10,000 per week wages. Admittedly Left Back isn't my preferred role. My best position is what my Aussie mate refers to as 'Left Right Out'
I can't even remember the last time a decent defender who simply "did a solid job" for a team like West Brom was ever linked to anyone...
I do think johnny Evans is currently benefitting from the Pulis effect, where his negative tactics cause the defence to look fantastic. I genuinely don't think he's worth the offers they've been receiving. Agree on Gibbs, reminds me of Walcott in the way they've hit a ceiling years ago but, because they been around forever, we almost forget there's no potential left and they're pretty much playing at their peak. BUT I would have took him over no-one and 7 mill seems fair. The wages are another matter
