Morepork Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Anything other than Westwood as No1 is the equivalent of nailing a For Sale sign on his forehead and showing him the door. I can live with him being sold but we are quite capable of botching the situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is the best keeper we’ve got so he plays until he is sold. Don’t get why it’s such an issue unless he has certain clauses in his contract which may trigger further payments.

With one league and 1 cup game before the transfer window closes id be very surprised to see Westwood play, he never started in the cup anyway so that leaves one league game .

Last time he spoke to the press he said the decision would be made on Thursday. Thursday comes and he says he has to wait until another training session today before telling the players. So 2 days before the season starts our 3 goalkeepers don't know which is first choice and our defence doesn't know who will be playing behind them? Might only be subtle differences but things like this effect the way the team plays, its not great preparation. The players will know he just won’t tell us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It needn’t be an issue if a journalist asks who’s no.1, Jos could quite easily say something like “I need to see Westwood play a few games as he’s been out injured for my time here. I’ll give them all a chance and we will see who gets the nod for Wigan” Even if Jos knows he needs to sell Westwood the whole “who’s no.1” makes no sense to me and could easily be avoided.

toppOwl Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 Westwood will be first choice, the club will edging their bets on him maybe moving on in the transfer window if they get a reasonable offer (I'd rather him not go but I can where they are coming from) if he's still here by the 8th he'll remain as first choice, in that instance one of the others may be loaned out.
