(John Terry is 4 years older than Baines and 5 years older than Cahill FWIW) If Dean Smith has some young gems lined up then fair enough, get them in . I never said we should BUY Baines and Cahill but they'd improve the squad for 4 MONTHS. People can laugh all they want but even now Baines is a MASSIVE improvement over Taylor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Guys we can have one more loan signing if we want to still field Abraham, Axel, Bolasie and El Ghazi. It will be Heaton. Any other signings will be permanent so forget about the likes of Cahill and Baines. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t even think Baines would be very good. But he’d still be a huge improvement on Taylor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarethRDR Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Barbet's a sure-fire bet, no? Has played CB and LB under Smith and his contract is running down so should be on the cheapy-cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villan4Life Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 I'd try and take Fraser Forster from Southampton. I feel he could get back to his best under Smith. Heaton's only just coming back from injury and that concerns me. Forster is still a very good keeper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest av1 Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Based on nothing but rumours and Dyche admitting yesterday that Heaton could leave in January, I'm confident this could have legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, put a decent back 5 behind our midfield/attack and I don't see us losing many games for the remainder of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smith played him centre back for Brentford at first and then left back for most of last season. I have no idea how good he is but I reckon this is a really good shout.

Agreed, the ability to cover the outfield positions we are in most need is a big selling point, as is the fact his contract is up at the end of the season with regard to our FFP considerations.

Barbet is on the bench for Brentford, would he actually improve us?, and by improve us I mean be the man to make CB or LB his own and really be a long term player in that position???
