Glenn can't last forever and it gets us back to having two CMs. It does - CC on record as agreeing too. As/when/if CC ever gets the MF right then I expect Hutch to return there. Agree re Loovens - he's probably got one more decent season in him and we need to start planning for the future at CH Edited June 4, 2017 by Earlsfieldowl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why you are trying to be so negative about us and positive about them based on one game that meant nothing to us given the amount of changes we made. Yes, they passed it about nicely but they beat our reserves by 1 goal when we had 10 men for 45 minutes. Over the course of the season we did better than them.

In Abdi's case he is clearly a capable player at this level and I hope he has a positive pre-season, gets into CC's plans and hits the ground running with us next season. Generally I don't begrudge players the chance to move on and do well somewhere else unless they have been a complete cun* with us (yes Bothroyd I do mean you) but I don't want to see any player move onto be a major part of a team that could be a direct rival to what we are hoping to achieve.

Beauchief Owl Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Can't believe we've got four pages based on a " What if?" thread posted on HITC clickbait site. Ah well, I suppose they've done their job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salmonbones Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 These players who join us midway through a season, I don't get why they get levelled as a bad signing so soon. It's harder to move mid season and make an impact. Judge players like Reach and Abdi next season by all means. They've had chance to settle in to not just a new area (if they moved) but into a different system, different setup. I'd be a bit peeved to have never seen the Abdi we were told we were getting, especially if some other team got it and he helped them to promotion.

Based on performances, effort and what I've seen of his ability, we've dropped a right clanger here. You are being a little too harsh. Unlike Bannan and Lee (granted latter's not had the chance) he has proven himself at the top flight. He is the level we need if we are to get out of this league. He'll come good when someone here knows how to utilise him properly and gives him a decent run in the side.

Jim Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 Abdi's a good player but unfortunately last season was a write off for him for various reasons, one IMHO that Carlos didn't know how to fit him in to the framework of the side and I'm struggling to find of a way how this will change unless Carlos changes the formation and tactics of the side which I don't seem him doing as 4-4-2 has seen us going close the last two seasons.

Hopefully he can get over his injuries this summer and we'll finally see the best of him in a Wednesday shirt. Last season must have been incredibly frustrating for both him and Carlos.

Bluesteel Posted June 4, 2017 Share Posted June 4, 2017 I'd like to see Abdi come back here and play like Almen Abdi rather than Kenny Lunt in our system. He looked a completely different player at Watford. But if we are restricted financially and there is a question mark over him then it may be worth moving him on. He clearly has a lot of ability but other than the first game against Villa where he got involved I've not really noticed him on the pitch and we can't afford to "accommodate" too many players in a formation. If were ok financially/FFP then by all means keep him, give him another go and strengthen again, without boosting a rival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone taking notice of the Fulham match makes as much sense as thinking Matias was going to have a great season because of the pre-season in Portugal.

Quite, and increased discussion amongst Owls' fans on OT will in turn will lead to more supporters to click on to HITC. It also makes them appear to be a more credible source, in part due to the title of this thread. The link is tenuous at best. In a nutshell, HITC are concerned about the number of clicks not the truth. Edited June 4, 2017 by Beauchief Owl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
