(I actually don't think Clark is that bad...) I can't really think of a centre back off the top of my head that I'd specifically want and who would come here. I'm slightly concerned this will mean we have a central pairing lacking in height, too. Is there really no-one better out there for £7/£8m though? Not much point asking me if you don't know yourself!

Guest av1 Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Clark is absolutely shocking. To get Chester for Clark + £2m is a great bit of business imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garvey13 Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Seems like a sensible siging and if Pulis has said hes gone looks like a done deal so wish we had more time to get someone new in the middle of the park too Chester and Elphick is a nice center pairing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admittedly it's only a very few games to judge them over but there was a big difference between them at Euro 2016. One had a cool head and was composed, the other was a mistake waiting to happen, with one rash lunge so ridiculous he slid all the way to Newcastle. I haven't seen a lot of Chester but he's an improvement on what we've got and has good credentials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until we bring in a new RB I'd be tempted to play Lyden there. I know he isn't a natural RB, but i seem to remember him aquitting himself quite well at RB in a cup game last season. He certainly looked like an improvement on Hutton and Richards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a twitter who said we were after Joe Ledley too? Maybe it was Jedniak. Anyway, I'll believe it when I see it elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Triple swoop. Apparently Jedinak fee is only 2 million. Great signings if true. Some don't seem to rate de laet but he got promoted with Leicester and Middlesbrough in recent seasons didn't he?
