    Not writing them off as such, Huggins has been here 4 years and Alese 3 years - yet neither have played enough, that's fact.

    Me saying I would sell them isn't me writing them off, it's saying what I believe is best for not only the club but for those 2 players.

    I'm all for giving players a chance, i rarely write players off until they've been here for a while and you can better judge them as a player

    We will sell players who will then go on to have great careers, that's football but sometimes those players can only reach that level by moving on and playing regularly.

    As I said I'm not against loaning them out and seeing what they do but they'll then be a year further on in their contracts so maybe the time to sell is now

    None of us will know what's best, I'm saying I'd sell but noone might want to buy.

    I like both players but I honestly think weve moved on and probably outgrown them - nothing wrong with that, we outgrew players like Gooch, Evans, Pritchard, Wright, Baath and Embleton, players who got us out of L1

    Tbf, Scott came across well on the roker report podcast earlier in the summer, but he has a huge track record of just rehashing stories

    Absolutely. We need to find the best way to get a decent return on our investment. A lot of people don't consider all the effort that goes in.

    Imagine having the busiest transfer window of all time and not even needing deadline day. That's what's somehow even more impressive than the fact we've brought in some incredible players. We've done it quickly, early and decisively.

    Lovely to see. Clear to see where we want to finish our business now and possibly only 2 signings away from being done. CB only brought in if they are a very high quality which makes sense with the numbers we have that can play there. Very confident a wide player will be brought in even if we settle for a lesser target. Going to need the depth out there imo. Very very happy.
