nbupperthongowl Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 Anyone considering the idea that Lees might be one of the 'diffcult/ unpopular' sales to generate some cash for rebuilding This guy could be part of the rebuilding...one of the 4 CBs we need Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TodwickOwl Posted May 10, 2019 Share Posted May 10, 2019 Tom Lees and Hector second half to season was incredible A great defensive record all around of course - but the turnaround is ridiculous, if we can't get Hector then fair enough but to turf Lees out? And Thorniley for Lees?!?! What are people smoking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In no way shape or form does signing this guy mean we are not bringing Hector in. Actually read through what you've posted in here and it'll dawn upon you how hysterical and ridiculous you're coming across. It’s not hysterical. I genuinely don’t see is getting Hector if we are signing this lad. No way will he come and sit in the bench. If you are happy to lose our player of the year then fair enough but I’m not. Best cb we’ve had in about 15 years!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because as good as Tom Lees has been for us he has him limitations and they are becoming more and more apparent. He got a lot better towards the end of last season but he is slower and looks as cumbersome as ever with the ball at his feet. I am not saying he is finished with us at all, however.... Thorniley looks ready for championship football and looks to have most of the good attributes that Lees has plus with better ball and organisational skills. I think this is the time he steps up to being first choice CB (hopefully with Hector) and as others have said he looks like a future captain to me. This is not a Lees bashing post at all its a Thorniley praise one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would take Hector and dump Lees though if I had to choose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For all the stick Lees gets, when he was out last season it was hugely apparent how much we missed him. We look a much better team with Lees in the side.

He could stay with Chelsea or move, permanent or loan, to another club and there's very little we can do about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are players in Championship teams that nobody thinks of as Premiership players but if their team got promoted they would step up and surprise people. I suspect Borner is similar, good at the level he's playing but potentially has the ability to go to another level. It might take a while for him to adjust to the Championship but when he does he could be a star. In Bruce we trust. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
