Jareth Posted August 6, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted August 6, 2018 Just now, eholm said: You'd like to think so.....i'm unsure as to what our current wage structure is now with FFP still a major factor... Me neither. But he's got to choose up north or a nice little sideways shuffle to Brum, VP over the riverside, Steve 165m Gibson or Edens/Sawiris multi-billionaire owners. One of these two clubs wins in every dept, but course I am biased! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they are on their way as well, I don't want to see Elphick playing CB too often if we can help it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 And as always since it's a Championship player I've never heard about him. Might have seen him play against us? But if so I don't remember him. Hope he's good if we do end up signing him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dante_Lockhart Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 He's 24 years old. What's Bruce doing signing someone that age? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Nearly 250 senior appearances for someone relatively young, lots of experience and looks to rarely get injured. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dante_Lockhart Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Be nice to have a left footed left winger (if he is pushed up the pitch) rather than people having to keep cutting back onto their right foot all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wouldn't be my only consideration when deciding my next employer. Maybe our dealings with Bristol (Kodjia and Baker) will put us in good stead, although maybe that won't influence the player too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denis242 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 (edited) He would be a fantastic signing for us, and I hope people who say hes "good competition for Taylor" or a "good backup for Hutton" are joking, because Joe was one of the two best LBs in the league last year with Barry Douglas, Taylor was nowhere near his level. Defensively Hutton isnt worse than Bryan, but he isnt nearly the player Bryan is going forward. He would be a fantastic Left Wing Back but even if we play him as a left back in a 4-man defense, hed still be good as he played in a 4-4-2 system at Bristol most of the time, so he is used to it. The only thing that could be bad for him is if Bruce doesnt allow him to flourish going forward like Lee Johnsons did, cause Lee Johnson is clearly a more attacking minded coach than Bruce is. But I still think this would be a great bargain signing for us for only 5 million pounds. I really hope he chooses us, but Middlesbrough isnt in a worse position than us going into the season, but we are the bigger club of course.

Money talks these days unfortuantely and both sides are probably equally matched with similar managers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
