Dr Jinx Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 That’s good news. He’s turning into a proper player. Professional on and off the pitch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might just be a little slow in his development. Not all burst on the scene early doors, look at Vardy. Had he been this good when he'd arrived we'd all have been happy with a long term contract. Hopefully more to come from him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Way i look at it if we had minimum of his quality as backup in every position then we're a safe team year in year out regardless of manager and owner. So i'm not worried he's here for the next 6 years. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fantail Breeze Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 Two years of being a squad player before we realise he’s pony, we can’t sell him and he spends the remainder on loan at Sheff Wed, Rotherham and Southend before a final year at Bursaspor. Perfect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andyc35i Posted July 7, 2021 Share Posted July 7, 2021 As much as I want the guy to stay part of the squad, six years is a very strange decision. Just another strange decision by a strangely run football club Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a decent enough squad player though, and if he's not costing much money, probably well worth it. He can do a decent job anywhere on the right as a back up if nothing else.

Dr.Spaceman Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 He's shite man. He wouldn't get in the matchday squad of any other team in the league, bar the recently promoted clubs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like him and think he’s good enough for our first team at least, which probably tells you all you need to know. He’s decent enough IMO.

Just another strange decision by a strangely run football club It's a hangover from when Llambias thought he was a football visionary with his purple stickers, the nuffies think that they now have all the "leverage" because such a lengthy deal will inflate the transfer fee price. Completely ignoring that with current transfer dynamics you can now still extract near full price for in demand players even if they only have 12 months left, so all you're really doing is taking on all the risk if they turn out to be shit and you can't shift them like with Colback, Marveaux and Tiote.
