The bigging up of Ethan Galbraith

[magicdaps10]

We all know he is an absolute class player but why are we talking him up in local outlets about clubs being interested etc.

Keep quiet and let the clubs do the hard work to discover him. It's as if we are trying to create the hype to get teams interested.

If we have no interest in selling him then let's just zip it up and keep a lock on it.

Pretty sure premier league teams will have a decent enough scouting network in place and won't need to read Walesonline when looking for new signings.

Yep. It's in our interests to big him up at every opportunity to make sure as many clubs as possible will be looking to make a bid.

Player of his quality will already be on the radar of clubs, I can't see the harm in the manager acknowledging what we already know, that he's a cracking player.

He's under contract and every player has a price.

And that's the crux of it, it appears we are trying to create something.

There's no conspiracy, he's a good player, end of.

Agreed, he is a good player.
I tend to find with situations like this that no smoke without fire rings true.

WTF are you going on about, again.......

When a player is outstanding in a competitive international against Germany, keeping his qualities quiet is simply not possible.

Thread is a thinly veiled dig at the manager.

He thinks that everyone talking about Galbraith will get him sold and we should be going under the radar etc.. bit mental considering scouts have access to every game we play.. Galbraith isn't good enough for the Premier League, not yet, he needs to influence more games if he wants that move up the food chain, and even then it might not be enough.. fans are excited because they see forward passes, and they aren't used to it.. is Galbraith as good as Leon Britton, no, Ki, no, Shelvey, De Guzman, no.. he's ok, but fans always overreact about players, like Grimes for instance..

A bit like what you would deem physicality

It isn't, I always love when people tell other people what another person is trying to say.

It was more to do with the person who asked the question, Sheehan had no other option but to answer it so he is not at fault here.

Not get him sold but broaden clubs interest.
He could easily be gone within 12 months but it's crazy what I am hearing and reading after only 3 months at the club.

The signs are that we did really well to get him here and that we’ll make a massive profit on him in the fullness of time.

That’s probably jinxed it.
