victorturner Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 5 hours ago, vulva said: Would be very surprised if Westwood is still here at the end of the transfer window. 5 hours ago, Bloxwich Owl said: Premier League side Southampton and Stoke City are tracking Sheffield Wednesday goalkeeper Keiren Westwood as the Irishman nears the exit door at Hillsborough, according to The Daily Mail. The shot stopper was left out of Tuesday’s pre-season friendly with Mansfield Town, with manager Jos Luhukay signalling a knee injury as the reason for his exclusion. However, the former Coventry City man took to social media to quickly dispel those rumours, saying: ‘I missed one training session last Thursday. I’m not injured and haven’t been all pre-season.” It looks as if he club want the money whereas I would rather loan out Wildsmith. But he is one of the saleable assets ie other clubs will pay money for him as he is quality, but it is obviously a gamble for SWFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not expecting a promotion push this season,if that happens then great Yes but let's at least start with ambition to be on top 6 as a minimum.

The money raised could well enable us to "become" a CB, as Jos would say. And then we'll have a better plough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lomas613 Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Why would a Wednesday release kit numbers for season putting a player as number 1 if they planned selling him??? Unless they can still change Dawson or Wildsmith number??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was good money in the 1980's We don't have many salable assets left, so anymore sales need to make a decent dent in the FFP deficit Otherwise, we still won't be able to bring bodies, after we've sold everybody Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest REDAs_biG_piECE Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Top goalkeepers need more than being good shot stoppers and being 'a Wednesdayite' and it's something you can't coach our Kieran has it last one who did was Bywater Cameron looks like he might have it Wildsmith most certainly does not (looks a lovely lad tho and pulls off some decent saves) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Young players always have a mistake in them, it's part and parcel of developing young players, but both did very well last season. Perfectly adequate for a mid table team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has never seen him play Judging from your user name , I’m guessing sensible debate isn’t your strong point but here goes . Westwood is 33 , always injured even when he plays (this concept seems to completely confuse some on here and in no doubt I’m about to get his appearance stats for the last 4 years ) when he did play last season he was poor and the worst of our 3 keepers . His kicking is dire (again no doubt due to injuries ) only a ‘moron’ wouldn’t try and shift him off the wage bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lincolnowl Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 If Westwood is to go, let it be the end of the season. He doesn’t owe us anything. Send one of Wildsmith or Dawson out for the season - but they must play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
