    Still think we can do better than him, he lacks any kind of pace and in a side already limited in pace we need both wing-backs to be absolutely rapid IMO
    I’m really not sure we can, you have to think about price and the demand for players like that. There would be lots more attractive clubs to go to atm. Bree has done alright for us and is a good championship full back. It’s all well and good saying the wingbacks need to be lighting and whip on good crosses but where is that player coming from? 
    It's all irrelevant because he's a Nathan Jones player and he will stay if NJ can keep him. Personally, don't feel we should just accept what we have because we don't know what else is out there. We might have said the same when we had Purrington and Matthews. There absolutely are better players out there. 
    It’s not about us accepting anything, the manager and the scouting team will know what is out there and for what price, the desired requirements for the wingback position cost a lot of money. No doubt there are better players out there but we are not in the position financially to go out and get them 
    Re your last sentence……how do you know that?

    Hoping Sonny Carey’s Instagram story is a cryptic goodbye.

    IS a cryptic goodbye?

    Either way, we've been told he's here until after Sheff United so it would be a bit premature if it was a goodbye.

    It also might just be a picture from Saturday night.

    Not much of a story really, where’s the beginning, the middle and the end?

    Exactly my thoughts - I could honestly take nothing from this image other than it's a cool contrast between the players and fog.

    A lot of things are said on here as a matter of fact, whereas most have no clue...

    High level wingbacks cost millions we are not going to be spending that on January let alone on one player. Not exactly rocking the boat to say that is it.

    It’s an “Instagram story” as opposed to a story.

    I hope we keep Bree at least until the end of the season.
    Unless we 100% have someone better lined up (excluding Clarke who I see as competing with Ramsay and Burke).

    We need to strengthen the squad not weaken it.

    Please don't let him take the corners or free kicks ...I would prefer to play Apter

    Balls. That really messes with our squad depth. Basically one in, one out with Clarke. Was hoping Clarke was providing cover at RWB and RCB. Instead it looks like he will go straight into the team on Tuesday night. Well, him or Rapter, but with no natural LWB I fear throwing Rapter in would make us too open.

    Whatever you think of Bree, and he's definitely improved in recent games, it's a blow to our squad depth and he has some quality about him.

    I'm sure that Jones would prefer to keep him, his form has fluctuated but at his best he's at least a decent option to have. Clarke will have to hit the ground running now.
