owlZfan84 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 https://www.thestar.co.uk/sport/football/sheffield-wednesday/who-michael-hector-will-be-rooting-for-when-sheffield-wednesday-face-his-parent-club-chelsea-in-the-fa-cup-fourth-round-1-9547174 I think that tells you all you need to know about Hector's feelings towards Chelsea. Sounds like he's really enjoying his time here. I'd like to think if we can afford to sign him up, we will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Night-Owl Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 He was a smart loan signing. He's fitted in well and been the combative, commanding, ball playing centre back we needed. Hope we can eventually sign him permanently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kopparberg Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 (edited) Now him and Lees are looking better, it’ll be very disappointing if we can’t keep him for financial reasons. It’d be Venancio all over again. Edited January 21, 2019 by Kopparberg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fpowl Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Hector has a presence in our team having him hutch and fletcher through our middle gives us a bite and makes us physical. It’s hard to play through the middle now if we added pace and a bit more quality in our full back positions we will no doubt be contenders in my opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiamK2292 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Hector has been a solid signing - probably the only good thing Jos did. For his benefit, Hector needs to get out of Chelsea in the summer and find a club where he can settle down, and I hope we can offer that. He's not even made an appearance for them since signing from Reading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
room0035 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 If the amazing happened and we managed to beat Chelsea financially what would it be worth to us. 4th round prize money is £180,000, I think we get something like £150,000 for the match being on tv but what do we get 45% of the revenue from the gate too. This could be worth around £1/2million to us. We manage to get past Chelsea and could maybe get a premiership tie at home or one of the big teams away. Its all about the magic of the cup but we could help the FFP with a decent run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N0rtherner Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 So he is really cup tied v Chelsea then due to some Association clauses... I really hope we'll see Hutch dropping to CB position for this match alongside Lees, someone who will shout and keep the defensive line in check. Without Hector there, I feel Lees may lapse and we need all hands on deck and 100% focus to enjoy this cup tie :) If Hutch drops to CB, who can we put on as DM, guessing we'd play this 4-5-1? Or?

S36 OWL Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Hopefully when we have released all the out of contract players at end of season we will be able to afford Hector' s wages to sign him on a permanent deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that’s what is going to be the outcome unfortunately, we’re heading for another short embargo, if we were going to sign him it would be this month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockieOwl Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 so Hector can't play against Chelsea but when Derby played Chelsea earlier this season, they were allowed to play their loanees from Chelsea?? I know the rules, but Chelsea specifically allowed the players to play. So why not Hector? Not only is it unfair on us, and let's face it, it won't make a difference with the result, but it is unfair on Hector too. Talk about double standards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talk about double standards You've not read the write up on the other end of the link have you? It's the F. A rules, not Chelsea, stopping him playing. The league Cup rules are different to the F. A cup one's, hence derby's players could play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Womble Owl Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 "Although the Blues allowed loan stars Mason Mount and Fikayo Tomori to play for Derby County against them in the Carabao Cup earlier this season, the FA Cup regulations are different. Rule 15 (j) (iv) states: "The Association will not give permission for players on loan or work experience to play against the lending club."

Owls2k Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 We paid the same for Van Aken as Chelsea did for Hector, what a tragedy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
