Lenglet is a CB who can play apparently play RB, so him and another CB would probably do the job.
Him and keep Bikey - unless we can get better in which wont be easy.
it's not hard to get better than Bikey. Really don't rate him and Luzon certainly doesn't.
I can pinpoint some stuff that makes him look rubbish, but lots of stuff that makes him effective. He is that sort of player/ I think Ben Haim and Johnson made as many, if not more errors that led to goals last season as he did and his power is a real asset.
but we don't want Cousins at right back do we, even in reserve?
that would take away from the midfield which, as good as it might be this season still needs Cousins to be in there. he thrived when he was moved into the centre and that is where he should stay, imo. we need his energy in midfield.
we're bringing in options in all/most positions, let's get Kelly or Herd in to cover that r/b slot.
not sure covering at r/b will be forming part of his ongoing contract negotiations either.
I agree about Wiggins - he definitely had premiership potential but, as previously said, his pace has taken a hit. He was phenomenal at stopping crosses into the box but he also had trickery to beat the opposing full back (i remember him putting someone on his arse once with a drop of the shoulder - brilliant moment).
It's a shame because my company have sponsored him for the last 3 seasons and he's always nice to have a chat to - but business is business so if there are replacements and his face doesn't fit then it's best for all parties that he goes.
That said - £750k for someone we have barely seen for a couple of years would be tremendous!
I'd be gutted if he went. May have injury troubles now, but that League 1 season he was one of the best players in the league. Hartlepool away sticks out for me when he just flying up the left wing all afternoon.
Agree he was great in League One, but that was three years ago, in a division below. Harsh as it sounds I don't think he has or will make the step up to Championship level on a consistent basis and therefore it's right to try and move him on.
I think we owe it to Wiggins to give him a chance to get fit and stay fit. He's easily our best left back when fit, despite the progress of Fox (who I rate). We're losing a good Championship player here. Good luck to him.

I never thought I’d be saying this as I have always rated Wiggins, but £750k – I’d bite their hands off. Would be fantastic if that could help us get the Henry deal over the line.
Let's not mix up being Match fit and playing at near 100%. In his own words Wiggins said that it takes him games too get back to speed. so out of those 21 games last season where he had 3 different injuries to overcome, he was at his best for about 8 of those. The crying shame is seeing Wiggins doing those runs is a great sight, but either the wingers in the Champ are getting faster( i think they are) or Wiggins have lost a yard of pace ? He was superb in the Norwich away game and thought he would kick on from there, but injuries are never too far away.

Apparently a player arrived at the trainings ground 30 mins ago according to ITTV.
I think Henry has this covered....our man on the spot this morning, I believe....
Yes, I was at the training ground this morning. Had a chat with Chris Parkes, saw Reza, Bauer and Big Mak (He's even taller than me) and a few other players.
There may or may not be some players coming in and one of them might or might not have been at the training ground at the same time as me.
I'll believe it when it is on the official twitter feed, official facebook page or official website, collectively know as the OS.

Tease.
If I told you who's signing then people would say I shouldn't be blurting it out as another club might jump in
If I don't tell you then Off it will have a wankfest over me being ITK and not telling people.
Fact is I don't have a scoopy who's signing, Chris Parkes didn't tell me anything and I was only there to pick up some stuff for the museum. Some medals, teamsheets etc.

It was too wet to hang around anyway.
