It's not like he's done it before.

 

[Sraboys]

Don’t see the sense in it

 

[nopigfansintown]

You build a squad in Jan and you overpay or get players who are unfit. Well run clubs don't do it.

We can inquire about any player. It does not mean there is intent to purchase or loan.

 

[ben1987]

Maybe we just asked when he would be fit

 

[AWetFlannel]

Why would wilder inquire to loan a injured player to come and be on the treatment table.

Because he might be a very good player who is available to come in on loan.

Are we in desperate need of players who are ready to play? Our squad is huge, and the one position we were light in has already been filled.

 

[GrunkyPeep]

Whenever there are leaks like this I naturally assume it's to try to speed something/someone else up.

 

[Badger Blade]

I'd be up for Barkley on the proviso that he's fit but just out the picture at Villa. They're doing well at the moment and it'll be tough to force himself in.

If he's injured then no but if not, he'll bring more to the table than bloody Matos or biscuit legs Davies, as good as he is, is never fit enough to contribute.

I suppose the difference being that this thread isn’t necessarily about Ross Barkley in particular, despite bearing his name. It’s more about overall strategy to squad-building.

Why would you even consider it even Villas manager says he could be out for 12 weeks

Is Ross dating another Wilder daughter can’t think why else

8 to 12 weeks, or less is what Emery said. And he said that 7 weeks ago.

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

Why would you even consider it even Villas manager says he could be out for 12 weeks

Because we are Sheffield United and we like to sign broken men.

We saw this with Holding last season.

Wilder typically likes to see a player play a couple of games in the U21s, building up their minutes... and then make a couple of first team cameos before they're trusted to start.

By that stage, it's March and you've already lost half a dozen games out of a short loan.

His approach to building up fitness is correct, but it makes signing an injured / rusty player a bit of a waste of time...
Particularly this season where we need to be almost perfect (from now) to get top six.

Barkley's wages will be astronomical and it'll probably come with a loan fee.
I'd rather we looked at a permanent option, even if the quality isn't as high as Barkley's, but that can help us in future seasons.

A good market to look at would be players with six months left on their deals.

The squad is going to be rationalised substantially in the summer as parachute payments run out. I think we’ll be unlikely to sign permanents in Jan who can actively contribute to the first team this season, that quality will be delivered by loan IMHO.
