Gone Elsewhere Conor Coady

[chesblade]

Forest also in discussion to sign henderson permanently. Going to be interesting next season

 

[sheffieldred]

Think its a lazy link for coady to be honest. Although they've all been crocked for most of the season, cb is where we have some particular strength at the moment

No it isn’t. Jack Robinson is currently in our first choice defence and we’re gonna be playing in the Prem next season.

JLT had a good season, he wasn’t ‘immense’ as way too many people have claimed.

Anel and Egan have earned the right to be in the first team, JLT has earned the right to be in the squad for the start of a premier league season and nothing more.

Our set up provides a lot of protection for our defence, add that to the fact that we had more talented footballers and attackers than the opposition and people should be very cautious in overly praising our defence.

Baldock, Anel and to a lesser extent Egan are the standard. Lowe needs to leave and JLT is very borderline for next season.

I read interviews with Mcburnie (when he signed for Barnsley) & Mcatee about how Hecky convinced them to sign for us because the amount of research/ presentation he'd carried out on how they'd fit into the formation/ team.

These presentations are going to have to be better than ever this season! so convincing they're willing to take a pay-cut.

A pay cut even though we've gone up, or is this designed that they'll turn it down!?

That would be understandable re Coady interest if it wasn't for the fact that Coady won't likely be playing LCB and I'm not so sure Egan will offer enough mobility on the LCB either so we need another for the competition for LCB in my view.

New players we’re attempting to convince to join us. No doubt they’ll be able to get more money elsewhere

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

Andersen from Barnsley............if Coady gone to Forest.

 

[Moan? Nope-I saw Longhorn]

Yeah - I’ve no idea why they are all whoring themselves round gulf states for petrodollars either.

They couldn’t physically spent the money they already have in a thousand lifetimes. So I’ve no idea why they would degrade themselves like that.

But each to their own. I see why you’d chose money early in your career but after a certain point and a certain level of wealth it really doesn’t matter when the difference between earning 200k a week and 2million is basically indistinguishable.

Aye
Don’t disagree with the overall (philosophical) point but sadly there’s millions of the greedy bastards in all walks of life

 

[dillis]

Coady for anything under £5m is a great deal. Although I would like us to be looking at Edwards from Peterborough. He’s just 20, with England at the u20 WC at the moment and has played nearly 100 games already. Probably be available for £8m

I'd be thrilled if my possibly new employee showed 10 page PowerPoint slideshow about how I would fit in the team.

 

[ancientblade]

When I say a striker, I mean a good one, not just someone who played well against us once last season

well were not going to buy a good striker on our alleged budget so has to be a loan who would you suggest then

Very unlikely that Everton would not pay him more than he was on at Wolves, certainly not that much more.

 

[Old Programme seller]

Perhaps that was the deal struck to loan him strange things happen in loans some players get a signing on fee, some parent clubs get a fee so it depends on how it’s been structured.

 

[Moan? Nope-I saw Longhorn]

If we are looking at bringing CC in on a permanent basis then I hope we are striving for a hard bargain with Wolverhampton.

They seemingly want his wages off the books as he doesn't fit in with their four at the back formation, but he does with our three at the back. We should be looking for a lesser fee up front than the £4.5m option that Everton agreed last season as he is a year older.

Apparently he has two years left on a lucrative contract so I can see the merit on doing this as a loan rather than a permanent. But I wouldn't discount the latter if the finances make sense. For starters, I would be asking Wolves to come to some sort of financial agreement with CC for a year of his contract whilst United could agree to pick up the money owed for the last year on his current deal. We then agree with the lad/agent what he wants per week and what we can realistically afford and offer him say a 3 year deal which would be the money from his last year at Wolves plus the wages we agree for years 2 and 3 divisible by the 3 years of the contract that we are offering. So x (last year of Wolves contract), plus y2 plus y3 divided by 3 = yearly wage over his 3 year contract with us. Alternatively I suppose we could offer him a lump sum payment for his last year contract with Wolves and give him a lower wage throughout his contract. It would remain to be seen whether he would agree to a wage reduction if we are relegated though. So in all probability I would see a loan being the way to go with this one but I wouldn't discount a permanent deal depending on what finances are involved.

Given the budget and priorities issued to PH by the Prince, we may have to start with JLT and Lowe. RND to return soon and he can play both LCB and LWB once he is match fit.
I don’t question your assessment of the positions, just that we, and Hecky might have no choice.

 

[mancunianblade]

I don’t know the answer so it’s a genuine question. but when was the last time he’s played defensive midfield?

Feels like about a decade ago in league 1 for us / maybe the championship for Huddersfield. If we’re buying a defensive midfielder I’d prefer us to get a specialist rather than hope a 30+ year old can remember how to do it.

According to wiki Nuno moved him to the centre of a back 3 in 17/18.

It can work like that but it can also work if the agent smells a move he can push for it providing the player is interested

But……
Us or Forest, or……. most anyone in the Prem (now excluding Everton I guess) ?
- we have to be realistic - just what actual appeal do we have for Coady - (recycled) articles quote him speaking highly of his time @ BL but then he says loads of positive stuff about (even) Wolves & Everton!

I agree. If Basham is not part of your preferred squad (?) then are you suggesting that we need a quality LCB and a good RCB as cover ? If Lowe goes are you looking at a LWB to challenge or be in front of RND ?

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

Andersen from Barnsley............if Coady gone to Forest.

Kasper Lopata has just signed for Barnsley ......who is on the move away from Barnsley.

Agree with your assessment of our centre backs we desperately need a new LCB to replace JOC. A centre half not a converted full back who can read the game and track runners as well as being aerially dominant and able to get forward with the ball. Priority signing for me. The Florist fan was saying its not a priority for them not us.

 

[Mouth of the South]

Kasper Lopata has just signed for Barnsley ......who is on the move away from Barnsley.

Anderson was playing L1 last season and marking useless lumps like Smith and Paterson - they are a world away from Prem level. Maybe he could step-up but I would have thought a move to a Champ club next season would be more likely. He isn't too mobile which isn't necessarily the end of the world but it won't help him against the pace and movement of Prem strikers.

It would certainly be a big risk is he was chosen as the upgrade on Robinson.

We are surely going to sign at least one quality defender, even within the given parameters

If he signs for Forest I'm stamping on the nearest dog nonce.

John Stones was only 19 and playing in the Championship when Everton took a punt on him.

Andersen reads the game pretty well that vision can make up for a lack speed,he is a bit like Harry Souttar ( a few years younger ) he's not doing too bad,just got relegated with Leicester.....maybe Leicester were thinking he will do for us if we get relegated

Some club will probably take him
