Same with Ben Marshall - his name is always mentioned. Does Jos even know who Batth is? It just seems when it comes to signing players we become blinkered and narrow minded - talking about loanees from years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would agree with this last season and before under DC as he wasn’t in at wolves when they wanted to go up. But I think he’s probably as good as we’d get under the likely EFL parameters. Also, I think we just really miss someone who just does the basic physical defending from set plays. Shaun Morrison was a limited player but we got quoted 8m for him and he even went up.

It's just previous players that have had relative success with us though isn't it and that the fans quite liked. Let's be honest how good is Kenwyne Jones really.??.

I know what you mean if the Barkley bloke or that Wickham bloke were available at a price we could afford would touch them with a barge pole. We need an experienced Championship defender, with leadership quality's but at the right price, Batth has played in the championship for 5 years so far, has over 140 games in this league so has the experience, he is club captain at Wolves who got promoted last season so he has the Leadership qualities we need, he is available for a decent salary so he is in our price bracket. Does this explain why we want him nothing to do with the ex loan player 7 years ago. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gurujuan Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Quite excited by the Piazon/Hector link, that would greatly enhance our prospects of achieving a top six finish We need a centre back for sure, but someone who can get our attack firing, like Piazon, would be a real fillip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ante's Bubbly Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 We cannot offer Batth more money than l**ds, if that is who we are after, but I reckon batth's pet charity could get a new benefactor if that would swing the deal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve been told it’s Danny Batth and the media have reported it as well. I’m pretty sure Danny will join on loan later today. He lacks pace but he can defend and he’s very good in the air and he’s just what we need at the moment. He’s the Wolves club captain so obviously he has leadership abilities. We tried to broaden our horizons when we looked at 200 centre halves across Europe and we ended up with Joost Van Aken who cost £4m. I know which centre back I’d rather have! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we don't sign him today I also suppose we can talk about him and Marshall coming back for the next 5 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcx666 Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Hull in talk with Chris Martin From Coldplay/Derby apparently. Honestly, I've never seen the attraction of him. Meh singer songwriter and average at best targetman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're talking about Batth, because in our desperate state, we have very few realistic options Gary Cahill, Ruben Loftus-Cheek & Yannick Bolasie all were probably available for loan, at the right price ... Not at our price 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theowlsman Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 I’m going to suggest the 2 players we could bring in will be complete surprises to everyone. And will be confirmed at 11:30 pm, six and a half hours after the loan deadline has finished, leading to an investigation after claims they were registered two seconds after the deadline. The Pigs will be laughing their heads off before it’s confirmed they’re ok to join us next Friday. The Blades will claim it’s a fix but we’ll not care as Tammy Abraham scores a debut hat-trick, and Gerard Pique chips in with another. Got the rumours off HITC btw 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing that comment from Carlos did was clearly state that our scouting network is abysmal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Personally hope the CB is Batth rather than Hector. Would love us to sign 2 players today. Come on DC lets bloody go for it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshall? Ben Marshall? The top provider of assists in the league? Why would we have ever wanted him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
