I actually think this should be a priority - a quick RB who can defend (in the Amavi mould) it would make us a "lot" stronger. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dn1982 Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 We still need a left sided CB and a RB to have a solid defence. We'll need 2 CM at least if Sanchez goes one a more box to box player like Gana and a DCM. Attacking wise I'd like a proper AM as I prefer Grealish wide left. I think we aren't far away with the strikers especially as RHM can have a big season this year off the bench. Still a lot to do for RDM but I'm happy we've enough going into Sunday to start the season well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJ Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 http://c.newsnow.co.uk/A/2/843356753?-11177:843:0 Apparently Leeds have gone off Lescott, as his wages are too high. Leeds are not interested in signing Joleon Lescott, according to a reliable journalist. Radio Yorkshire’s Joe Rawson has claimed in a question-and-answer session that the Championship outfit have been put off by the former England defender’s wage demands.

Sh*tty clickbait articles, ad-ridden (even with an ad-blocker, or TWO in my case), and so much for 'insider', they break news hours after everyone knows about it, and have the cheek to call it an 'Exclusive'! Not even HITC is that bad... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodders Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 hmm, as we only bought him for a million quid last year, natural "depreciation" based on his value has already wiped that off! Still, 3 weeks to go... fingers crossed. More hopeful on moving Joleon and maybe Micah at least. Fairly sure Gabby won't be moved anywhere.

I've long suspected that he's a nose I agree that it would pay to subsidise his wage for the year-If he stays, we are just going to be shelling out more and not getting anything in return as he won't be involved. As N'Zogbia showed, these people aren't bothered if they play or not, the only concern they have is how much they earn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hutton and Bacuna are awful - we could do much better. We don't need another Amavi, we need a rightback who can defend and offer something going forward e.g. ocassionally get to the byline and cross a ball.

I'm not sure that finding a right back who does that effectively is as easy as you think. Replacing Gana protects the defence and adding someone creative, for example Morrison will give the forwards far more ammunition than an attacking right back will.

I want a right back that can defend primarily. Yes we need another central midfielder, preferably one that doesn't have to protect the defence as much because we have a better right back.
