Better than the other option Onomah that's for sure. Problem is we dont need a effective replacement for Bannan we need an effective partner.

Not sure Steve Bruce and co can magically recruit players in the order of relevance. He's more than likely working on another central midfielder.

gurujuan Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 He’s the cheaper option than Onomah, but nowhere near as good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wilyfox Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 McEachran is someone I had in mind if we didn't keep Kieran Lee...but we did, so he's not what we need now - unless Lee has a problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mogbad Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 As someone else has already said, if it allows us to push Bannan further forward then there may be some sense in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do when Bannan is injured or suspended, someone needs to come in in his place. Also, somebody who can push him to play well and not rest on his laurels is always a bonus.

Absolutely, whether it’s Cattermole, Mceachren, or Gary Madine as long as Bruce wants to sign them then I’m happy with that. The time to complain is if they fail, not before. considering Bruce’s track record of assembling promotion challenging squads is much better than the majority of us on here (championship manager game players aside).

Bigger Guns Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 This whole ‘if Bruce wants him then I’m happy with that’ thing is a bit pathetic. There was a thread a while back about Bruce’s good and bad signings. News flash. They weren’t all good. Just because he’s a good manager doesn’t mean he can’t make mistakes. Anyone who thinks cattermole will be a good signing is mistaken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not every signing works think everybody acknowledges that but at least give the buggers the chance to fail. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone who thinks cattermole will be a good signing is mistaken. That's clearly true with all managers including Bruce - I suppose it's the % of successful signings compared to other managers that is the measure and even that is subjective. The key at present seems to be what funds he has; what positions he's targeting and who's available. I know this is obvious but will ultimately determine the collective success come May next year.
