Freeman and Manning 12:02 - Apr 10 with 5521 views | stuabd | Watching these two seeming to get better each week, got me thinking about how much attention they'll get from other clubs in the summer. We obviously need both to be mainstays in the midfield next season, and I'd be gutted if one or the other was poached. I think we're safe with Freeman as he's been in the league for a while and his best performances have come towards the end of the season. Manning on the other hand looks like a real find. I remember Dave Mc saying how a few other clubs were looking at him before he even got in our match squad. He's tenacious and skilful and you'd think that this has been picked up on my other managers in the league or even ones on the way down from the Prem. I know we have to be realistic and make a profit on a player, but I hope Manning is on a nice contract that keeps him with us next season at least. | | | | |

Between Holloway and Penrice they've discovered a lot of strikers down the years and coached them into better players. That, or a loan, may be the best options open to us. | |

If Bidwell is six foot then Matt Smith must be almost seven foot six! | | | |

Freeman and Manning on 14:32 - Apr 10 by paulparker | Im with Stevec we do need wing backs Simmo , we lacked width on Friday night badly if we play 3 at the back then your wingbacks have to be like Rose, Walker, Bertrand, moses , Clyne Robinson im afraid to say isn't fit enough to play that position consistently at this level Bidwell is ok but I think he would be better replacing the awful Lynch as a left sided CB in a three Hamalianen needs a season or 2 on loan , ala Furlong and the same as could be said of kaykay Perch & Ned will never ever be wingbacks so long as I have a hole in my ar se in fact I don't want to see Perch play for us again a total liability who again nearly gets sent off for lunging in, is he brain dead ?? and no one could ever get over seeing Ned play right back surely Tavernier at Rangers would be brilliant for us |
I also see Bidwell as a Left sided CB, we need wingbacks, lots of free transfers around, Fryers at Palace, Christie at Derby, we could even try for Flanagan at Liverpool, on loan at Burnley, not getting games. I am sure they are lots of other Freeman type deals out there, now we are looking, just think we could have got Dele Alli, Callum Wilson or Andre Gray if we where not so lazy in the past. | | | |
