Colinjb Posted 16 January, 2013 Share Posted 16 January, 2013 (edited) I would reject all bids. The only cover we have for a 17 year old. Also, what does it say about Dan Harding's role at the City Ground? Edited 16 January, 2013 by Colinjb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilchards Posted 16 January, 2013 Share Posted 16 January, 2013 Clyne, Yoshida & if he signs Forren are good enough cover for Shaw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Garrett Posted 16 January, 2013 Share Posted 16 January, 2013 We all knew Harding wasn't good enough for us in the NPC, so why would he be good enough for Forest if they're going for promotion? Ideally the more of our promotion side they have the better for them! Fox is a great player to have in the NPC just for his dead ball delivery, and his defending doesn't get caught out really. Would be a good signing for them, but I don't think we should let him go unless we bring in another LB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lallana's Left Peg Posted 16 January, 2013 Share Posted 16 January, 2013 Not adverse to him moving on if the bid was right however leaves us in an interesting situation at left back. How do you buy a good left back with him knowing he'll be second choice to a 17 year old? Then if you can't convince someone to come in with the required experience / quality how would you feel for Shaw's backup to be unproven? Then if we got relegated and Shaw left... All ifs and buts however is a difficult situation to manage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pingwing Posted 16 January, 2013 Share Posted 16 January, 2013 Just get rid and we can work on it quickly over the next 2 weeks. Has proven him self to categorically be unable to play LB in the premier league, maybe left wing but Shaw coming off against villa blew that chance. Take a decent price (at least what we paid for him) and move on. Thank's for the 18 months (12 of good service). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clifford Nelson Posted 16 January, 2013 Share Posted 16 January, 2013 Have everybody forgotten about Ben Reeves? He was originally a left back who we re-schooled to CM. His progress is hampered there and he has once been subbed in as LB. Has always acquitted himself well, so why not be first back-up for Shaw?

Windmill Arm 2 Posted 16 January, 2013 Share Posted 16 January, 2013 I thought you paid attention to the Villa game. Apparently not. Gashed knee / legThis is Alpine Skate we are talking about, he only frequents the match threads if Saints are losing, and NEVER goes to home games.

Saint Fan CaM Posted 16 January, 2013 Share Posted 16 January, 2013 Ben Reeves perhaps, but we have an extremely promising 17-yr old LB coming through the Academy ranks hot on Shaw's heels. Can't remember his name off-hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chez Posted 16 January, 2013 Share Posted 16 January, 2013 Clyne, Yoshida & if he signs Forren are good enough cover for Shaw. are they? One decent half against Villa doesn't convince me that Clyne can do it. One woeful showing at West Ham convinced me Yoshida can't. Reeves might fit the bill, but could be sure.

dubai_phil Posted 16 January, 2013 Share Posted 16 January, 2013 Shaw is rated amongst the top 10 hottest properties in world football. The 17 year old Taggert/Targett? is rated as being better than Shaw but less advanced in terms of gamebrain. Why bring in another player.... When we have Seabourne and Fox....... Clyne & Cork then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clyne & Cork then Why bring in another player? Because he's 17. Are you also suggesting playing Cork at LB? And do you really think Seabourne is good enough to play LB in the premier? I don't think that would be a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
