Yeah will allow Bannan to follow up Browns surges and be available to put the ball just over the crossbar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCityIsOurs Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Maybe a potential loan for Kortney Hause, if Villa ship in a first team defender Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wilyfox Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Probably nowt in it, but could you imagine a beasty back 3 of Hause, Dunkley, and Iorfa? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gurujuan Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 With 5 senior centre backs already, and two others who can play there, it’s not really a priority. Were a couple to leave, then maybe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premier clubs will be fighting to sign him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldishowl Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 The absolute certainty in this league is that you have to be solid at the back . You can always win nicking a set piece goal if you have kept a clean sheet. You also need to be capable of defending a lead late on when they throw the kitchen sink at you. Something we are rubbish at. It is a team thing but they will still knock balls into the box and you need defenders with physical presence. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So true, I'd be happy building from the back and focusing on being difficult to break down. So many times last season we gave ourselves a mountain to climb by conceding early - and those late goals didn't help either! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is imo one of the reasons we also need a new number one at the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another move might reinvigorate Lees like it did when he came here from Leeds. JVA simply isn't good enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
