The scum spent over £8mill on 2 left backs and they're both pish, it's a position that's very easy to get wrong, especially for what we will have available to spend.
In the running for the "Ludicrous Post Of The Week " award.Would you sell your house for less than half it’s worth?

We signed a big fast athletic defender for 300k and shifted him for 20 million.
It’s also easy to get right
Not that easy or we'd be buying and selling for those sums every season, which we aren't.
Imo because we targeted the wrong profile. Replacing Bassey with ridvan and Davies should have got everyone involved the sack.
Cortes and dio are much more like it
We could keep the players who are fitJust about the last player we should sell, if he goes you might as well get rid of every player
And if he has another season of limited availability we’ll be lucky to give him away.He's 22, has shown excellent potential and for all we know could be back from injury next week.
I'd give him another season and if he can't stay fit then it's something we can look at, but getting rid of him this summer is premature imo.
Who is paying £8m for a player who is constantly injured?Needs to be silly money to lose the likes of Butland, Yilmaz, Sterling and even a firing Cantwell (in poor form I know)
We need to bring in good players, not lose our better ones
£8m with add-ons is silly money for us, half for the rebuild and half for the bank
Just about the last player we should sell, if he goes you might as well get rid of every player
Didn't realise we had to sell him today, thought we had until August 31st, my badWho is paying £8m for a player who is constantly injured?
Apart from us obviously.
You surely don't consider Yilmaz in that category?We've half a squad to replace. Keep the ones who are capable of putting in a decent performace regularly
agree think he is like tav without the goals ,he is fine going forward but suspect when asked to defend ,so if tav is deemed not good enough cant see why yilmaz is ,sellSell, not as good as made out and the bigger issue is he can’t be relied upon to stay fit
Sell - he's never fit for an extended period or when a big game comes around
Well we did!Who would want to buy a LB like you’ve described?
Unsure if this is for keep or sell.This should be an absolute no-brainer. It isn't a coincidence how our results have fallen off a cliff since he was injured.
Borna is stinking the joint out every time we see him and Sterling is completely right sided which is killing our width and attacking shape.
Would you prefer a player who gives us good performances, or one who could give us great performances once he gets off the treatment table?First reply nails it.
Id keep him as the wee man has shown that under PC he could be great.
Has a lot of fight in him & bags of skill/potential.

Aye true his physique lets him down.Yet is made of quavers like so many of the current squad.
You can sell Ridvan and pick up a replacement and still be successful. That mob across the city have Greg Taylor as their LB. He's got 7 major honours to his name and looking like adding a 4th league title to that.
All you need domestically at full back is decent defender and the energy and pace to get up and down the pitch. We really lack energy and pace at full back.Yet is made of quavers like so many of the current squad.

This for me as well, it's showed massively since he's been out just how important he was becoming for us.Everyone has a price but I would rather keep him. Look how imbalanced we are on the left without him. Look at how little attacking intent we have down the left without him.
He has been a big miss.
Fitness means he isn't really that close to the bottom.Just about the last player we should sell, if he goes you might as well get rid of every player
This is an argument for selling him.This for me as well, it's showed massively since he's been out just how important he was becoming for us.
