Charlie Savage Rumours

[Joecity]

Ballard's profile has been raised off the back of one good season.

Would he want to come here when he'd be nothing more than a backup to Salech?

Nah...He can play anywhere along the front 3...He left Southampton to go and play...Love that in a player me....The boys a talent. Proper Southampton fans were gutted when he left.

Savage and Wintle got one big thing in common neither of them are good enough to get into a decent championship team.

Although in the same vein BBM has shown he can develop youngsters - would be worth coming here to use as a stepping stone maybe?

We're certainly not a club that good players or clubs would be put off by anymore.

 

[Facey]

Interesting - thank you.

What would you say he'd bring to our midfield that we don't have already?

I don't even think wintle can cut it in the championship, let alone savage. Hope it's bullshit tbh.

Did ok in the 3 games against Chelsea, Wrexham and Burnley

and at a bare minimum deserves the chance to find out.

But there's one thing you haven't considered...We actually have coaches now that can improve players. They don't let you look after the academy at Man.City if you cant coach. It just wouldn't be allowed. No fucking way.

 

[Joecity]

No, from what I have seen of him he seems a good passer given space, but light years behind McPhail, Whitts or even Matt Grimes.

Hes still a kid mun. And those 3 players were top players. Grimes can run a game...So could Mcphail...Whitts could win a game....Savage still establishing himself...its an interesting one...Still can't see it happening tbh.

We lost 3-1 against Chelsea and we played Wrexham and Burnley reserves

if he does come, i hope he's a better footballer than his old man

Agreed. If hes got the same capacity to get around and a bit more ability he'll be an asset though. We already got one in in little Colwill tho...But I guess the squad will need to be bigger.

I don't know whether BBM actually wants a bigger square though - everything he's said so far indicates this is exactly what he wants.

 

[TDA]

Young, Welsh and with good potential.

Me being me, I know, but he's not Welsh. Born in England to an English mother and Welsh father and lived in posh Cheshire all his life. He's an Englishman qualified to play for Wales.

Nine subs on the bench in the Championship, so more squad depth needed, particularly if BBM goes without a back up keeper.

Id like us to go into next season with Robertson and Wintle as our starting central midfielders that was the best combo during the last campaign in my opinion.Yes the standard will be higher but they both have the qualities to shine and Wintle in particular deserves the chance after his performances last season .All conjecture as contracts still need to be signed before we know were we are ,an exciting next few months leading up to next season .Be interesting to see how BBM copes with his debut as a championship manager facing up to similar possession teams .BLUEBIRDS

We've been through this before. And I respect your opinion but look at my family. All born different places but thats because they all moved around for work. The UK is so small you can. They all Welsh tho..

And jobs in any given skilled profession require flexibility. The lad can't help his old man made a few quid and moved to Chesire. Michael Owen was born in Wales. Doubt he ever considered playing for us.

If the lad wants to represent his heritage then don't criticise.

Especially when you fucked off to France.
