et tu brute Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 (edited) That's a brainless decision that mind, not only for the fact he is an injury liability, but also for the fact he is pretty shit as a footballer also Edited May 5, 2022 by et tu brute Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 (edited) Club home grown player isn't he? We'll be pushing for Europe next season and so will need to have some of these going forward. Edited May 5, 2022 by KaKa Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I think it's a one year deal initially and based on how that goes they'll determine whether to extend with him, because he'll be useful going forward, or whether it would be preferable to use some of the younger players coming through instead in those club home grown slots.

Hanshithispantz Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 He's a reliable defender providing 3rd choice cover in 2 positions. We're not realistically going to replace our entire squad and backup in the summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 "Dreadful" and "brainless". Don't say that NO doesn't love an overreaction I personally didn't see the value in renewing his contract, but Howe obviousky does and he will have his reasons. Either way it's a pretty inconsequential decision. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 Can't believe the reaction He's an experienced club home grown player they want to have another look at over next season, because he's been injured most of this one. He can cover as a left back, centre back in a two, centre back in a three, and as a left wing back. After seeing what Howe did with Krafth, it's not impossible that he could be a serviceable squad player if and when injuries start to tally up. The key thing is ultimately that club home grown status though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way it's a pretty inconsequential decision. Aye, it's either we keep on someone like Dummett as cover, or we go out and buy someone to fulfil the exact same, part time role. Either or it's pretty inconsequential like you say Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't argue that he's injury prone but I'd argue/insist that he's better than Lewis (who's done absolutely nothing for us), plus he can play in more than one position. And like I suggested in the other post, he's an important character in the dressing room (that's according to the manager). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abacus Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 On the one hand, I'm reading, he isn't very good. But on the other, he's always injured so he won't play anyway. Sounds to me like his two biggest weaknesses cancel each out, so I don't know what people are complaining about. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantail Breeze Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 Just now, Yorkie said: Can't argue that he's injury prone but I'd argue/insist that he's better than Lewis (who's done absolutely nothing for us), plus he can play in more than one position. And like I suggested in the other post, he's an important character in the dressing room (that's according to the manager). I don’t know why we’d keep either of them. Both Championship standard and should see the door. We had an opportunity to get rid of one for free and should have taken it. Buy two youngsters with the ability to improve with the club, or bring an experienced older head in who is also on a free in the summer. When we need back up next season, he’ll either not be available through injury (as we’ve encountered several times in the past few years) or, he’ll be torn to bits because he’s not good enough.
