I wouldn't be worried apart from no news of Gomes signing. Steep learning curve but quality will prevail.ShootersHillGuru said:No way can we go into the season with Lennon and Gomez plus two senior cb's

17 is too young to start as a cb in the champ. Imo.harveys gardener said:

I liked Woody, good cover but anyone with pace near him and he was in trouble. Good battler though.
Very interesting to see who is coming in.1 -

Richard Wood is toilet, would rather give a youngster a chance like Joe Gomez0

The one that involves letting our best players' contracts run down to nothing, selling the best of those that do have contracts, making bizarre managerial appointments every five minutes, and an owner who has a network of five clubs with a bunch of pony players swapping between them every now and then.ShootersHillGuru said:

A 17 year old CB playing against some very lethal strikers, his confidence could take a battering before he's even 18. Needs a lot more time, it's playing with his future in the game, needs a loan spell like Popey first.Pelling1993 said:Richard Wood is toilet, would rather give a youngster a chance like Joe Gomez

I know that forums are about people having their say and expressing their opinions.....but aren't all the anti-RD postings creeping into every thread a little tiresome now?

South London Press says Wood did not trigger the extension in his contract.0

I lost count of the number of goals Wood was at fault for last season. If Rotherham buy him and he is the quality of player they are after then good, they will take one of the three relegation slots. He always gave 100% so for that i have nothing against the bloke! just his 100% is League One standard.
I just hope this does not lead to Gomez starting, 17 is too young for the Champ no matter how good he is, maybe some bench appearances and league cup games but if he is one of our main 3 it is too early in his development.0 -
Joe Gomez is not ready to be starting Championship games.5

Gomez is FAR to young to be starting in championship he is to learn at the moment and would be dominated by someone like Yann Kermorgant.
I admire your belief in our young players and love the fact your backing him but honestly .. he is no where near ready yet
A nice loan to a league 2 club will do him very well1 -

If he's good enough, he's old enough!2 -
If you are good enough you are old enough, sticking out on loan would
not help in fact he might go backwards.0 -

How on earth would putting him out on loan to gain vital experience at a competitive level make his development go backwards?All_Thaid_Up said:If you are good enough you are old enough, sticking out on loan would

If Gomez is good enough then he should play some games. The key would be to get the right man alongside him. Gomez doesn't have to play every week but he shouldn't be hidden away either.
There have been examples before of young players playing at the back;
Tommy Caton played for Manchester City in Division 1 when he was very young.
Bobby Moore was 17 when he made his debut.
Last season Hamburg played a 17yr old centre-back (Jonathan Tah) and he did really well before they gave him a rest.
It's not really about age....it's about talent, strength and the ability to learn quickly. If a young player has all of those attributes then he should be seriously considered.2 -
Paul Elliott was a regular starter for Charlton at 170
-
Gomez getting some first team action this season would certainly be an incentive to sign a new contract
Wood was a fine squad player but hardly irreplaceable0 -

Shaun Newton also.
But all a long time ago (you can throw in Billy Bonds, Mike Bailey, Keith Peacock, Bob Curtis and Paul Went).
