Tottenham planning £1.5m bid for Rhys McCabe with Tom Carroll going the other way on a season long loan to Sheffield wed

Unbelievable25
We really need to plan for better than just championship level if we want to make any kind of push because if we don't then when/if we make it to prem then we would have to unload entire team and start from scatch because not one of current squad is good enough for premiership

Hope we get Zakuani, quality!

apparently dave jones is set to release llera, I hope not though
Believable3
Unbelievable9
All llera can do is blast the ball anywhere, the odd good header and take a decent free kick? we can do better and need better
Agree8
Disagree5
Only Bennett and weaver released
Agree9
Disagree0
If only two released then we would finish with a cast of thousands again and complain about lack of funds for other purposes. Surely can't be true - though looking at last year's transfer activity, can't be entirely out of the question.
Agree2

It was Llera's through ball to Howard that created the first goal against Boro.
That said, Llera's not a long term prospect for SWFC. We need youth and pace as well as experience.

Price tag of one of the players (On loan last season) we inquired on is an "Extortionate amount". The only options would be negotiate down, or offer a season long loan.

Apparently we will be offering a contract to a young striker from one of the lower leagues (On a youth contract basis). It is unlikely we will be seeing this player on the team sheet next season, it is "One for the future".

t would appear that the first whispers of the retained list are beginning to come out of the club.
Jermaine Johnson, Lewis Buxton, Giles Coke, Miguel Llera and David Prutton have all been offered new deals at Sheffield Wednesday, according to tv Radio Sheffield journalist Rob Staton.
He also revealed that Julian Bennett and life-long owl Nicky Weaver would be departing the club for pastures new.
The official retained list is expected before the end of the week

Ok you may disagree to what I said but seriously who out of the present squad could play in the premier league if and when we get there
Agree2
Disagree3
I wouldn't even be thinking that far ahead.
However, Prutton and Coke did a good job, but it's time to move forward and improve.
Agree5

With who? You still need your work horses. Coke towards end put his worth in.

Black beauty? I don't know who, but I'm sure our capable scouts could find better players.

Deadwood, it can only be removed once we sign other players can't get rid of half the team and b left with no one!
Agree1

People putting Prutton on the same level as Coke are unbelievable
Prutton: 31, hoofs the ball all the time, runs around like a headless chicken, technical skill of a hamster
Coke: 26, two footed, intelligent passer, great positioning, good dribbler, technically a few levels above prutton

New deal apparently being offered to Prutton. - Source - Rob staton.
I am quite surprised about that one, although he came back from his loan spell and did well. With Coke also being offered a deal I can't see where Palmer, Corry and McCabe are going to pick up enough games to progress next season, unless its out on loan.
Believable10
Unbelievable1
Palmer, corry, mccabe will never be good enough in championship. sorry.
Agree3
Disagree16
All 3 young and energetic give them a chance in the team and the will be quality same as mayor needs a run in the team!
Agree8
Disagree2
Palmer, Corry and Mayor should never kick a ball in the Championship. McCabe looked the business at the start of the season and then went off the boil. We will struggle next season if Coke and Prutton are staying. We just don't have enough players who are comfortable on the ball.
Agree2
Disagree7
Ok then, chief scout at SWFC has spoken, let's just get rid of them with no effort to try and bring them on.
I guess you think Prutton is championship quality? he's far off the best CM's in the champ! In my view, the only difference between Prutton and McCabe is experience.
Agree4
Disagree1
How can palmer McCabe and Corry ever be good enough for the championship? You give them a season and play them, to develop, into top players that they and we all know they can be!
Agree2
Disagree2
Palmer, Corry, Maccabe will never be good enough for the Championship says a poster, I don’t know why some of the posters come on here spouting their wisdom.
They are such experts in the ability of footballers that I would have thought that Man U, Barcelona, Bayern Munich etc would be vying for their services, they could make sure that they never bought a duff player again (or would they). None of us has seen enough of these players to be so convinced they are not good enough,
Agree5
Disagree2
You clearly have not understood my post so if I was you I would read it again. Prutton is one of the worst midfielders Wednesday have ever had. In my opinion McCabe has gone off the boil but still has a future and could develop into a good player. If you think Palmer, Corry and Mayor have a future you obviously do not attend the games or know nothing about football!
Agree1
Disagree5
And there is only one way to gain experience.
I think if he played along side an experienced CM, he would improve quickly.
Agree2
Disagree0
I've been a season ticket holder for years and I also attend at least 5-6 away games this season. As a fellow fan, how can you say that mayor is not good enough when he's barely featured? To me he looks good in glimpses, as doo a lot of young players. You only get the odd gem who looks the complete deal at such a young age every couple of years when they leave a prem team or have slipped under the prem scouts radar. let's keep it real, with how little we look like spending we may have to rely on bringing through our own youth even though "they will never be good enough for the championship" lol. UTO, in Jones we trust.
Agree6
Disagree1
I have been to every home game and many away game’s, I have only seen Corry, McCabe and Mayor on a handful of occasions and have not seen Palmer at all during the last season. So how may I ask, have you seen enough of these players to make such a damming judgement on their ability, they are young players who might not be ready yet for the Championship but to write them off without having seen them is stupid. With your excellent and unrivalled knowledge of football why have you not been appointed the new Man U. chief scout?
