I’m with Chazz on this one.
There would be no place for him In The starting 11 if we had the midfield enforcer that fans crave.
That's a strange comment considering he doesn't currently play that role in the team.
I’m sure Chazz will retract his comment when he’s seen you’ve agreed with him.
No one plays that role in the team because we don’t have one.
If we did have one, someone would have to make way. It wouldn’t be Seri or Traore
Class goodbye from Callum.

Still this idea of needing a squad proving hard for some to grasp I see.
Not at all. There is no clambering from other clubs to sign Slater. There’s a reason for that. Happy for him to warm our bench though
Suspect he'll be doing a bit more than that.
Considering Cannon got game time for us this season it's not a stretch to see slater involved next. Especially now he's added a bit of end product to be fans player and players player of the season.
Do you understand how a squad works and that someone like Seri won't be able to play every game next season? Traore didn't play his first game for us until February ffs. Slater was value because of his ability to play almost any position across the midfield.
Buy a couple of players who are proven at this level at scoring goals and we will finish Top 6. Forget recruiting players from abroad on free transfers who can’t handle the rigours of the Championship.
Our injury record this season is ridiculous.

Can’t see Slater being a key player next season, he’s had a very good year this year, the first question is can he carry on the form and improvement into next year. The second question is would he actually have a place in a first 11 with a properly rounded and balanced squad?
He’s an all round player, alright at everything but doesn’t really have any particular standout quality. Also, for the kind of busy body all rounder he is, he does still go quiet and missing too much. Take for instance a David Meyler or George Honeyman who you could count on giving a solid 7/10 performance 90-95% of the time, Slater would IMO be more 60-65%.
That’s not to say he won’t still play a big part for us but I just don’t see him being one of the first names on the team sheet and will become more of a depth option than first choice.

Managers favourite... I suspect he'll be on of the first on the team sheet , deserved out not..
We've needed the work rate of Slater this year to make up where we are lacking across the pitch.
I'm in the camp of he won't be in the 11, but probably in match day squad. Brought on for energy to help see games out. He will have a role to play.

Out of the players heavily linked in January, how many can you see us going back in for?
Toffolo, Curtis Davies (as experienced back up), Conrad De La Fuente, Ryan Fraser, Max Bird? Any others that I have forgotten about that are realistic?

We should be going in for Tom Ince.
I knows he’s rumoured to be finally taking his 10 year option to sign for Inter before it expires next year but I’m sure if we put in a solid bid of a bag of Haribo Tangfastics, a bag of Crispy M&Ms & half a Bounty we’ll be way ahead of what Inter can offer.

Don't see Davies as a feasible option. Liam said something about maybe revisiting Conrad shortly after the Jan window closed.
