Swiss Toni Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 I wouldn't read too much into it. I don't think Jos is the sort of manager to say they were in the market for a new player - even if he was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bouncing Owl Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 (edited) Strange! We really need to bring in a right wing back. Not comfortable starting the season with those 2. I know people will say Jos has improved Nuhiu and I get it but Hunt was tailor made for right wing back and I’m certain that Palmer hasn’t got the energy, fitness or attacking flair to play the role. Im really happy to be proved wrong on this one. Not saying Hunt was a world beater but was decent. Edited July 16, 2018 by Bouncing Owl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owlZfan84 Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 The thought of Liam Palmer starting the season as our first choice RWB fills me with absolute dread. In saying that though, look what Jos did with Attey. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doghouse Daz Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 I'll go with that. Going to be a good season for Palmer, Matias, Abdi, Boyd and Van Aken. Strikers are going to be on fire with the delivery these guys are going to lay on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liked Hunt going forward but he was poor defensively, hardly ever managed to stop crosses going into our box. Baker looked good defensively v Norwich, got some decent tackles in but poor in attack. Something to work on there. If it’s Palmer he needs to up his game and fitness. Looked better a few years ago under Gray as a conventional full back. Need to know the formation Jos will favour before we go on about wing backs too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is it, things have changed, we are hamstrung when it comes to new additions We will be weaker, on paper at least, but maybe Jos can compensate for that with work on the training ground I have no issues regarding Palmer starting the season as RWB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DuttyTeabags Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Jos seems to have a habit of sticking with players he thinks he can improve and ejecting players he thinks are past their peak. That's the mark of a good coach. Given Weds have paid over the odds for over the hill then this can only be a good thing. In Jos stick I trust.

Dutch McLovin Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 I would like a new RWB but..... i do like what I see of Baker and given a run in the side maybe he can establish a place in the 11. I was hoping the Palmer to Bolton deal had some legs then we were getting Byram on loan. Still am really but if it’s these two I’d like to see Baker with a run.

crookesowl Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Baker looks a real prospect in my opinion. I’m not too concerned to be honest. I don’t mind Palmer, he has a lazy motion but maybe Jos can get the best out of him. Sorry for being positive, but there are more pressing needs for us to sort out in my opinion, like centre mid.

Baker looks very promising ,and will probably be first choice right back . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bannan. Pelupessy. Lee. Hutchinson. Maybe likes to have Reach play there. Probably fond of Hunt and Kirby. Will struggle to the point of being unable to shift Abdi and Jones. Wouldn't be holding my breath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheriwozgod Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 I get the feeling we need at least a couple more to leave before we can think about any loans in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
