Did the same with Maddison ?

No he stayed until the end of the season

You lot need to wake the hell up I know it’s Sunday morning but Come on

1 - we need another LWB
2 - robins knows the player
3 - mason isn’t upto it

it makes perfect sense this move it’s actually the obvious Move to make..

 

[Grendel]

If Giles gets injured or sent off would it be a waste of a loan then ? Mason won’t be here past this transfer window.

It’s normal on such arrangements that Norwich would cover a high percentage of wages as long as he plays so he will be a very expensive squad player

 

[Johnnythespider]

Strange one from Norwich, have they already decided he's not for them. Why would you loan a player back to a rival. I hope we haven't had to guarantee game time for this.

 

[Winny the Bish]

Not sure how I feel about this. Giles has been great so far. Would rather the budget have been used on an attacking midfielder.
Have to assume Mason is off.

I take it back - Giles will break down if he plays all 46+ games, plus McCallum is better than Mason, and it gives an option of playing Giles further forward. I'm fine with it. We still have one loan spot left.

Maybe they feel he'll develop faster here?

No we didn't.

 

[clint van damme]

Giles might be attacking midfielder.....

Don Goodman said in commentary on Friday that wolves would only lend him to a club that play 3 at the back.

Of that's true I wonder how they'd feel about him being played as an AM?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

So Norwich have spent a few mill on a player to hand him back to us for 1.5 seasons? Not complaining but already looks a waste of money on their part

 

[stay_up_skyblues]

Good signing if a bit odd on Norwich’s part. Would be a shame if Giles doesn’t keep his place for now on merit though. Great choices at LWB for the season.

 

[lord_garrincha]

Robins has just popped this in Mason's locker...

 

[mr_monkey]

Giles to replace Allen

Allen is one of the main reasons our system works well, don't you watch the games

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

I can only presume they've secured a loan signing as they only have one left back at the club - if they don't bring in anyone in it doesn't look brilliant for him

 

[Blind-Faith]

Thinking about it:

It’s good for squad depth and keeps Giles on his toes

He knows the way we play and the staff

Norwich have given us a load of cash and then given the player back to us for a year and a half!

Robins is a genius

He wont be played as a cam what is wrong with people

Giles alongside O’Hare with Dabo and Hamer sitting in behind.

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Well this is great for depth but Giles has been outstanding on the left. Giles has the most crosses in the Championship to date. I can only think Giles will be pushed up on the left in place of Allen.

 

[cc84cov]

Giles for Allen ? Wtf is up with you lot

 

[Greggs]

Fuck off dickhead. Simple enough for you?

 

[ccfc1234]

Seems odd. Giles been good thus far, although thought he struggled against Oyasi-Samuel on Friday (albeit he’s being linked with a PL move).
Hard to know what Robins is thinking

Agree in both games so far we have been most exposed down the left. Also I think this one signing will allow Mark Robins to replace 2 players. Mason and maybe covet for the injuries to Jobello/Jones as Giles gives us an option at left wing.

We still need Walsh or similar and an attacking midfielder to put pressure on or better Allen.

Walsh is not coming mate people need to get over it.

Careful. All the forum mongs might attack you for suggesting that!

 

[AlansEyes]

Sorry to see Mason go (if that actually happens), thought he was one of our best players ten games or so into last season.

 

[mr_monkey]

I am so confused by this theory, so you want to play a lwb as a cam instead of a player who excels in the cam role.... Allen doesn't do the spectacular but we would be a much poorer team without him in it, it's no coincidence that our great form last season coincided with his return to the team

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Giles replacing Allen is almost as funny as the Dabo in CM calls

Weird comments on this thread this morning

Magwitch wants him to push Marosi for the No. 1 slot

 

[cc84cov]

It makes no sense to start playing players out of position that’s why putting a left back into a CAM position is on the level of putting Dabo at CDM

 

[fernandopartridge]

Mccallum is much better defensively, including defending corners. We need two players for the wing back positions as they're so important to the way we play. Horses for courses on who plays I suspect

 

[mr_monkey]

Fuck off dickhead. Simple enough for you?

Im really interested, why in your opinion should Giles (a lwb) play as a cam ahead of one of our best performers?

Out of position? He's 20!

 

[Saddlebrains]

Well I was that confident it was bullshit i said if it was true i would suck off Danny White and David Collins on Twitter.



Better get puckered up

It’s because he has pace you could play him there like on FIFA

 

[KenilworthSkyBlue]

Seems a bit bizarre considering he won't be guaranteed game time but great to have strength in depth I suppose.
