The likelihood of him joining and what he’ll bring to our team if he does sign?

If you really want him you’ll get him, not a lot unless he improves, he’ll be lucky to start 20 games for you if you’re signing him as a midfielder, before you move him on, unless robins can work miracles. Been class for us in our first two games this season though.
look at it like this, Luton scouts have pretty much been camping out at Oakwell this past 5 years, they went nowhere near him last summer when he went to Millwall, and they’re not interested this summer ether.

I wish we had one for every club TBH. Would be great to summon an expert at will.

That angry Mackem off YouTube would be perfect as a SBT liaison.

They were mostly interested in cavemen to be fair

He thinks we’re finishing 3rd this season

David O'Day · Aug 14, 2023

Luton not being interested is probably a badge of honour for a midfielder

See, perfect for the job, then.

We may be signing him to compete with Da Silva at left back and the added bonus he can fill in at CM

But does he actually want to play as a wing back?

junglej13 · Aug 15, 2023

Sometimes I can't quite understand why this isn't the easiest transfer to close out. £2m is a snip for him. If these clubs are interested in him which I suspect they actually are it's not even like you need to negotiate with the selling club. Just activate the clause and get on with it.

He’s played the majority of his games for Barnsley on the left hand side

It looks his best position as well with no goals and 1 assist in CM

Only makes sense if bidwell is off

Fleck & Conor Thomas flashbacks!

Slight spanner in the works of this one...............

another championship club has met the release clause, so lets see

Sounds like Bristol.

Was always going to happen that someone would move. Suspect it will be Bristol City as per Nixon's weekend story.

Saddlebrains · Aug 15, 2023

Not sure who, but we have competition

Surely for any midfielder now, they must look at us and see we have a huge void in midfield they can fill and get minutes in. Only issue will be wages I'd assume, and based on that he will probably go elsewhere.

covcity4life · Aug 15, 2023

Well if he don't choose us then we move on. We are better than Bristol end of the day

May look at us and think we are more likely to be challenging at the top end of the table.

shmmeee · Aug 15, 2023

Was reading a piece on a transfer negotiator for a data driven scouting club. He was saying you need 5/6 targets lined up cos the best strategy is just to walk away when the price gets silly, especially if clubs know you’ve got money to spend.

If we don’t get him I’m sure there’s others on the list.

covcity4life · Aug 15, 2023

It'll be about wages as release clause is already set

Looks like we have a ceiling of 20k a week?

Sounds like yet another versatile player. Really does seem like Robins is building a fluid interchangeable team, where outside the back 3, the players will drop in around the pitch where needed / there's space and really be ready to hurt teams at any given moment with our quality.

SeaSeeEffCee · Aug 15, 2023

To be expected that more than one club would come in when the release clause is relatively low.

covcity4life · Aug 15, 2023

I knew I shouldn't have watched his YT video!

Jinxed the move

Same theory applies to wages. Frankly is Styles wants anything close to £20k/wk he can jog on.

Gives more credence to the fact he is actually decent, as everyone was slating him as not good yesterday because teams hadn't paid his release clause!

fatso · Aug 15, 2023

He could be great competition or cover for Desilva, Eccles or Palmer.
And young enough to develop into anykind of player MR wants.

Watford have been linked previously and his old manager is there.

Bristol have been rejected by a Bolton midfielder so are definitely looking at that position.

TomRad85 · Aug 15, 2023

He'd play every week at Bristol City, here he'd have to work harder to get in the team, so its up to him how hard he wants to push himself really.

Liverpool are set to miss out on another target, as Styles chooses us over them.

Make your decision today ffs. The wait is agonising
