Alex Tettey has said that everyone involved with NCFC must be ready to start afresh when pre-season training begins in July. He has expressed a desire to improve on the 2016/17 campaign and is looking forward to the new Head Coach. He likes the place, the people, the club, and says it's a good environment to work in & wants to be a part of it.

Sounds like Tettey said all the right things in his one-on-one with Webber then. Hopefully the new HC will get him back to his old self pre-16/17 season. We could use a handy defensive-oriented central midfielder after all.

Not a big fan TBH, loses possesion far to often and invariably gets booked trying to win the bloody thing back !

Slows the play up and doesn't know how to pass the ball forward, reminds me of a 'black' Ray 'sideways' Wilkins <ok>

Tettey's passing is certainly his weakness, but he's still one of the best at breaking up opposing attacks. Hopefully Louis Thompson will provide good competition for that position once he gets back from his achilles injury. Dorrans also offers another option with better passing, but less effective at breaking up attacks. Upgrades at a price we could afford would be hard to come by. I'd rather we concentrate on improving the defense.

I think Tettey could stay on as a back up to Thompson, we need to push the younger players into the first team now and if we are keeping some of the older players they can provide cover

I'm all for bringing on the young players but I'm not sure that Thompson is that ready yet after his long time out with his achilles injury. I think he'll start in the cup games (and there's a lot of those now) and U23 games to get fit. Tettey or Dorrans will start most league games for now, with Thompson and Godfrey available in case of injuries. With a stronger defense, that could be enough.
