We under used Rhodes, but he was the wrong player to sign, he doesn't have the quality for a top side and never did. I know his goal return was good, but he needs top players to create those chances, and you are playing with 10 men for much of the time.I agree that Rhodes and Hugill weren't used to best advantage, but it's just the idea of bringing players back again. It never seems to work out.
That would would also exclude Gibson. Also he might get stick for being the owner's nephew. Before he always played well enough to fend it off, in a team that was doing well, but this time around might be more exposed.
No, but I don't think he will be a nailed on starter. He would do well to get another 25 games particularly since his final ball isn't good enough on the wing, and his defending needs improvement. His best role right now is wing back, but I don't thin that Warnock will play that unless he has toYou think. Spence will go?
If Spence is a weak defender he may not necessarily 'grow' ; also he may start pining for London when offers come. One to sell.We under used Rhodes, but he was the wrong player to sign, he doesn't have the quality for a top side and never did.

there are no guarantees that he can become better at defending, but it does happen. He's only 18. Friend was about 23 when we bought him and wasn't particularly great at stopping wingers crosses, but he improved.If Spence is a weak defender he may not necessarily 'grow' ; also he may start pining for London when offers come.

I think we will sign Joe Hart.
I think he'd do well in the second division, less pressure and media attention on him, less likely to be dropped when he has a rick in him.
He's a big lad for a fullback, 6 foot 2 or 3. The pros of that are that extra height from a defending corners perspective, you gotta survive about 350 corners in a season, so it would be a big bonus. But personally I'm always concerned that tall fullbacks have a high centre of balance, which means tricky wingers can turn them. He's one of those players that seems to have inspector gadget legs, which is annoying for attackers.Looking to talk to Tyler Blackett- left back out of contract at Reading

He is one of those ex-Man Utd academy graduates that hasn't ever quite fulfilled his early promise, but you would think he has some footballing intelligence after years training up there. Plenty of championship experience too and I think he is mates with McNair, they were in the youth teams together.
He could cover CB or LCB in a back 3 too, he's a specialist LB who is comfortable at CB which never hurts. I'm sure he would be a better option than what we had this season at LB
Never heard of any of these players mentioned, or the bloke we signed but you do get a general good feel of the type of player he is by reading various comments on here, he sounds as though he ticks the boxesWould be happy with Blackett. The fact he is use full in a 4 at the back in 2 positions and can play LCB in a back 3 is great for us really. Hopefully there is some legs in this rumour.
...and the "London" factor isn't a factor, he's from Jamaica and lived about 6 years in rainy manchesterNever heard of any of these players mentioned, or the bloke we signed but you do get a general good feel of the type of player he is by reading various comments on here, he sounds as though he ticks the boxes
