jomaco Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 (edited) 7 minutes ago, The Night-Owl said: I read earlier that some journalists believed we were interested in Vaulks as well as Turnbull, and that the soft embargo is now lifted. They think we'll be in mostly for released players and loanees. https://www.sheffieldwednesday.news/news/journalist-claims-soundings-were-made-by-sheffield-wednesday-over-then-rotherham-midfielder-will-vaulks/ But if there's some cash spare or we can get rid of a few players, then hopefully we could go for Morsy and try and bring Hector back? If we can somehow wheel and deal or engineer a way to buy one or two players, my preferred choices would be Hector as top priority with Morsy as an outside second priority. I'd be happy enough with quality out of contract signings and a few quality loanees. But I also think, if possible, Hector and Morsy under Bruce, would give us what we need to have a real go for it. We've got some pace now, adding Hector and Morsy would make for a damn good team I think, but let's see what else we can muster if this isn't possible. Because Hector was so good you'd make him priority if at all possible. I think we'll be OK without him (but not quite as good), whereas a defensive midfielder could really be key if Hutch has trouble, so perhaps really that should be the priority.

kendoddsdadsdogsdead Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 On the previous page Nightowl mentioned, if funds were available to try and get Hector and Morsey in. I understand why, but in terms of CB, at the moment we have Lees, Iorfa, Borner, Van Aken, Thorniley, Fox and Hutch if the latter 2 are required. Seems a lot of options s for me, and not unlike our long list of strikers. If funds can be freed, or loans utilised, we desperately need midfield and wide players, so create some balance and options s within the squad. Not withstanding the good points Nightowl raised. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s just got Costa and his style is similar to that of Karanka and Carvalhal in that they don’t really like too many ball carriers who can’t also play the intricate possession game. Guessing the likes of Costa and the lad from spurs can do a bit of both. Wilks seems quite raw in that regard but as a direct dribbler doing the basics he looked excellent in league one. Might suit a Bruce side, but can’t imagine they’d loan to a rival. Edited July 4, 2019 by Bluesteel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gurujuan Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 I’m happy with Bruce’s choices, Hector and Onomah, not fussed about Morsy, and Cattermole’s a definite no no Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense and would be a good move to loan in extra quality, rather than buying, especially if we need to reserve something in order to bring back Hector or to find a suitable alternative. I'd have liked us to own our own younger version of Hutchinson but that sort of quality would be costly and if possible, then a quality loanee, like you suggest or someone similar would be a smart option.

Could see him signing for a good championship team or someone like the pigs in the Prem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
