Linked.

Would make sense as they play wing backs I believe.
 
Might suggest why we are rumoured to be looking at Kieran Freeman.
 
TBF his toys went out of the pram when James got a big move and he didn't.
Hopefully, if it comes off, he'll find the form he showed two seasons ago and be happier on the pitch.
Wing back suits him.
 
Connor is overrated but may do well in a team more comfortable in possession than we are and who get bodies in to the box.
 
The amount of grief he gets off his own fans I wouldn’t be surprised if he moved to another championship club if he doesn’t get a move to the PL.

Decent player whose passion is wrongly slated by fans, the majority will be moaning when he’s doing a decent job for another club & Wales.

Great post, a home grown youngster we need to build with.
 
Connor is better than most defenders in the championship, he is versatile and has shown this over the comeback games, to say he is anything other than a positive for our club is madness.
 
Cops too much unwarranted stuck. Home grown and plays with his heart on his sleeve. I wish half our team had half his passion.
Gives plenty of attacking runs forward and not afraid to put his body on the line. He is a decent player and would love to keep him.

Really nice guy with plenty of time for the fans. Always high 5ing the mascots which shows he knows where his roots are.

I'd be doing everything we can to keep him.YJB
 
Its no surprise that CR plays his best football for Wales.

Quality players around him brings his best game to the table.

Would be a massive loss if he went to Sheff Utd, but could anybody blame him.

I agree. Has come into his own as wing back and was totally knackered under the former 4-5-1 system as there was never a winger ahead of him as Ayew or Dyer always drifted into middle of park. Always does his best and is home grown. If he goes I guarantee the Yanks will bring in lesser quality.

Going for the parties with Ollie should be enough of a draw, let alone playing Premiership football again.
 
Good player.

Get rid of Naughton and Routledge, bring in better. Move on.

We have extended the contract of one and I hope we are able to do the same with the second.

Good post, particularly the second paragraph.

Decent but Championship standard at best I’d say. Struggles to stop a cross or put in a cross, but that may have been different if we’d had a McBurnie or someone similar to gamble on getting in to the box.
