I imagine we'll move on to a new target for between now and the summer, and potentially try and pick him up on a free if we stay up.

Think Clarke is the new option and we don't see another RWB coming in.

Yeah I meant a new target as in we have more pressing matters in different positions now, and 15k a week on Bree when we have Clarke and Ramsay is frivolous

amazing what happens when you aren’t playing through injury

I get the value in Championship experience, but I still hope we can find better if we stay up.

Played better for saints because he was allowed to get forward more and didnt look panicked like he did for us.

Thought he looked decent yesterday from what i saw, i think from that showing,Southampton will keep him until the summer.

Probably because the system we tend to play comes from the fact that we have one Wing-Back who goes forward, the other slots in to make a back four when we're in attack - When we have Edwards available, its usually the Right Wing-Back who goes forward, see Small from last season for example.

With Edwards out, he's being covered by Campbell, and you cant exactly have TC as the one who stays back.

Was he on corners?

The Saints fans I know were pretty pleased with him. He hasn't been well thought of there but that has mostly been due to his association with Nathan Jones who a lot of them have a disproportionate amount of hate for. I think if Bree gets a decent run for them until the end of the season they'll warm to him. He works hard and he's not a player who should normally generate too much vitriol. I'd still like him back, he's a good player and as good as Clarke has been so far we're one injury to him away from scrambling again
