Cracking signing. Played a big part in us staying up so comfortably. Especially good as he didn't have much help from behind him like Ritchie would on the other side. Great at tackling and intercepting high up the pitch too

Do you mean in an attacking capacity, or in general, because Dummett on the whole has been significantly better than Yedlin since his return?

Think he's part of the reason why we've struggled the last few games as he's gone off the boil a bit. Seems determined to always cut inside despite in doing so he's moving onto his vastly weaker foot.

 

Made a massive difference, but has really struggled to make it through entire games. Can't remember him being particularly effective in the last 30 minutes or so of games (albeit missed the Huddersfield game this year, where he reportedly did do well). Has the odd flash perhaps, but really think his lack of starts over the last few years have really hurt him.

 

His next move will be crucial for his development and probably needs a team like us as much as we need a creative outlet like him. Can see him moving to a 'bigger' club and just falling away completely under the wrong management. Really think £20m is crazy money even in the current market for a player who's played about 20 games in two seasons. Hope we do end up with him for a reasonable fee and he develops even more as he'll make us a better side, but if it does end up being crazy money or he gets his head turned I still think we could find an equally good player for a more reasonable fee.

Our last 4 matches have probably done our chances of keeping him no harm. If he had kept his/our form he might have courted even more attention.

 

Hope we can get an answer off Chelsea nice and early. If they want a buy back clause, give them it. Its all about the here and now for us.

Totally agree

I'm not sure Kenedy and Ritchie provide ideal balance, since they both almost never get to the byline and cut inside all the time. Seems to slow a lot of our counterattacks.

 

He's a very good player though and he seems to be someone Rafa really wants.

Sell Gayle and Mitrovic, then go all in for this lad and a striker.  Get Dub permanently and we’re almost set for next season

 

no, no we arent

 

we need to do all of the above plus a right back who can defend as well as attack, we need at least 2 strikers and we need a couple more squad players better than the squad players we have

If we are quoted 15 million snatch their hands off. 20 million it becomes more of a question on whether we want to blow our limited funds on a winger when Striker is clearly more of a priority. What I can see happening is that we balk at their price, no one else comes in with an acceptable offer and we agree to another loan deal on transfer deadline day.

I'd snatch their hand off for £20m.

 

He's good value at £20m, but of course our lot will be doing a good bit of baulking that. We'll waste it on two £10m players instead.
