bradowl Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 I'm more concerned about holding on to young Hirsty, I think he could be ready next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ballmeist Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 If im honest I don't think any if our players would make the starting 11 of a premiership club. The only one that could go close is Westwood. We have some very good players, but they are championship level players. A few people are mentioning Tom Lees, he'd get eaten alive in the prem. too slow and not good enough on the ball at that level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee and Westwood aren't getting any younger, if a club showed an interest will there heads be turned? Two play off defeats, maybe they will jump at the chance to have a shot at the Premier League. Does that mean Bannan is ? Do you know something we don't ? Anti ageing serum maybe ? Come on spill the beans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on spill the beans. He is like Benjamin Button - that is why he is so small - he used to be 6ft 6 but is inexorably becoming an infant.

Harry Maguire has won plaudits all season. Think last season (when they were all in the same division) Lees looked as good as either of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So a 'possible' 'perhaps' / 'maybe' kid is more fundamental to our team next year than any of the existing first teamers? I didn't realise how low we'd sunk....

DesWalker Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 You'd think that none of our players would move to a Championship rival seeing as we'll hopefully be challenging again next year and we can compete on wages. The Premier League obviously is a different ball game. Therefore, which of our players are good enough to start in a Premiership team? The only definite for me is Westwood. He'd also be the hardest to replace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesteel Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Tom lees would be my concern Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSlicer Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 FF has really disappointed this year. And I think after the Norwich debarkle we should sell. I'm not sure who would take him though now. Maybe newcastle. I hope if he stays he can prove me wrong and shake the reputation that he has. (Which at times I think is very unfair) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Stones is excellent on the ball but can't defend and he cost loads. I think Tom Lees would do well at a mid table club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ashamanic Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 While I don't want the players to get unsettled, it would be nice if there was some interest - it would show teams in the Premier league rated our players It's hard to tell. Even the relegated clubs have players who they can sell for 10-25 million Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He isn't a natural central striker but wants to play there. On the left he is more effective but can leave us exposed down that side. For me he is a great player to bring off the bench but he wouldn't be happy with that either. Whatever you do it has an effect on the balance of the team which is frustrating because he can be a game changer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peacock1961 Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 Could honestly see Lee making it as a good squad player outside the top 6 or so, dont think FF, Bannan or Lees are really good enough (wait for the negs) Westwood would only leave if he was guaranteed no 1. Don't think we should sell anyone to our rivals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
