The Daily ITK Discussion Thread 8th January

I like the sound of us going after Bowen and the lad from Norwich. That’s been our modus operandi for so long now, pick up youngsters and develop them and more often than not it’s worked out for us.

If we are after a young right back that doesn’t bode well for KWP though does it.

Unless we want to shift Trippier and/or Aurier. I can see KWP becoming a specialised utility player. His reliability will shine through, I'm sure of it, and his versatility will get him chances.

Kwp just signed a new 5year deal.

Where does the Hull kid plays? RW? LW? CM? CAM?

KWP as backup for Rose at LB
Davies as backup for Verts as LCB
Norwich kid as backup for Trippier/Aurier whoever stays

Would cover our defence quite well. Foyth and Sanchez are both RCB i believe we do not have a left footer CB so Davies is a good cover

We have no LB in the younger squad who appear to be ready

Apparently Aaron's can play on either side, but prefers RB. A bit like KWP really.

We will be bringing in another GK to challenge Hugo & Gazza in the summer

Bloody hope he is HG. No more three foreign spots taken up buy keepers please!

things that make you say "hmmm"

 

[panoma]

Another GK surely last thing we need?

 

[Hercules]

Vorm, we should know by now is offskies in the summer. So I am informed

Should have been offskies last summer. Hopefully we go for a young promising keeper and not another stocking filler old fart.

 

[panoma]

No team really need 3 GKs to fight for 1 spot though. Having 2 senior GKs with a youth product as third choice should be fine.

Vorm, we should know by now is offskies in the summer. So I am informed

Never had a problem with Vorm. Have to say we got lucky with the amount of back up keepers who don't kick up a fuss and are still reliable for the most part when called upon. In this case Gazza has gone above him, and could earn Hugo's spot in the near future too.

 

[Breezer]

Vorm, we should know by now is offskies in the summer. So I am informed

But may remain in London.

 

[MB31spurs]

Was hoping Vorm would go this window and then free up a slot in the squad

 

[Mr Pink]

Things are heating up!!

Might need him in midfield at this rate

 

[Hakkz]

If the new GK isn't HG (assuming that we keep the other 2), it would be complete madness.

 

[The Mourneview Ace]

A young English keeper to grow and improve would be the move that makes sense. Hard to see the likes of a Pope coming unless he was first choice.

No issues with Vorm, been a reliable enough backup who has been passed by Gazza. If he had an opportunity now we shouldn’t stand in his way.

Isn’t Vorm out of contract this summer?

A half decent mature keeper from the lower leagues would do. Whoever it would be would be 3rd choice and would get hardly any games so no need to pay big for a prospect.
