From what I’ve heard Reid is a capable defender but lacks attacking threat, he wouldn’t be able to play the role Maatsen or Jones did yesterday.

He should go out on loan, don’t know the lads character but imagine you could get disillusioned quickly coming from a first team environment to having a winger played over you.

Didn't Robins say that Maatsan can play in midfield too

Sure he will once a second LWB is through the door.

With kelly nearly fit, and Eccles due back at christmas, and Jones and Bright being cover for O'hare not to mention Hawley coming through, do we really need another CM in on loan?
If we bring in another CM, we will be tempted to play 1 upfront to accommodate him, which would be a negative move imho.
If we only have the money for 2 loans I'd rather have a CB and another LWB.

Yeah there’s plenty of players in the position. Question is more about the quality of the backup I think. If we moved on say Shipley and Allen maybe there would be the wage money for a PL loan.

I really think MR is thinking JJ as cover for O'Hare, and Bright is cover for JJ given his injury history.

I suspect we have a LWB lined up on loan
Reid is likely to feature against Northampton so we can have a good look at him

 

[Legia Sky Blue]

I don't see us having 2 left backs on loan. By definition one will not play, which is not going to please the loaning club. A more likely scenario is a left sided central defender who can also play left back. A kind of modern day Herman Hreidarsson, but the younger version, rather than the one that joined us. I guess Soare fitted that type when we had him on trial too, but obviously looks like we decided against him.

 

[Fergusons_Beard]

Why on earth would you have two loanees fighting for one position? And why no CM? Hope Turner is wrong.

Because we haven’t the wage money to buy someone permanently.

It’s wrong mind.

I heard from a quite reliable source that we are trying to offload Tyler Walker, only passing it on so don't shoot me down, he's on a big wage apparently.

No chance robins chased him for long enough I can’t see him being on a bigger wage than Waghorn

Hmm it’s not as unbelievable as it sounds, especially if Waghorn and Gyokeres are his first choice pairing.

Could be some twists and turns left in this window!

Its not unbelievable but I don’t like the sound of it tbh

I hope not!

If there’s some truth in it wouldn’t expect him to go this window with Godden still a bit off

Depends when Kelly comes back… does anyone know?

No nor would I, not sure how far Godden is from playing again, but with him , Waghorn and Gykores we're quite well blessed

Can’t see that unless someone’s offering stupid money

Osti now is the time to take the time to back your observations about playing in front of sky blue army ,join us for the ride.

Agreed 84 but Robins always chased Chaplin for ages but was quick to let him go when it wasn't working out; Robins is quietly ruthless. Maybe there's an opportunity to bring in someone on high wages in another position where the budget can best be used - we've got plenty of cover up front? Who knows? Until that time Walker has my full support - there's a player there.

I don’t think robins wanted Chaplin to go

And I suppose they could recoup their money quite easily on him to a League 1 side like Ipswich or Sunderland

We have 4 forwards and Walker is the highest potential of the lot. It would be pretty foolhardy to say the least without an exceptional reason

Would be the wrong move imo, and doesn’t speak well for the recruitment team if we are trying to ditch him after one season.

Just hope Viktor has had a word with Ostigard to turn his head after yesterday about what it's like to be playing in front of the skyblue army...PUSB

 

[cc84cov]

Godden would be the one to cash in on,30 now and injury prone

…you’ve just named the reasons why anyone won’t be paying significant money for him.

Unless it’s out of the manager’s hands…

Unlikely
Robins has the last word
With Chaplin he wasn't first choice and got the chance to go somewhere he thought he'd play as well as probably increasing his money
I haven't heard any whispers about Walker but I suppose he could be in a similar position

 

[Tommo1993]

Lawrence Shankland is so good, he’s heading to the Belgian league.

don’t agree with that, things change very quickly. And nobody knows what’s going on behind the scenes.

I don’t see him having that many suitors either unless in the league below

I guess he'll start on Wednesday so will be looking to put down a marker

 

[Liquid Gold]

Walker isn't the high press type so I could see why he'd be most likely to be moved on out of the group.

I would keep him personally, although if moving him on meant we could add a couple of quality permanents at the back I'd be tempted.

I think we’d come to regret it not long after. Wait and see I guess
