We called their bluff, its not a coincidence that this came out right after we moved on to other targets with paper talk of bids for Jusef
Wasn't it an og?
It’s what Wycombe want , more clubs involved and get the auction going .
Even if a bidding war happens it would only really be about the structure of the installments and add ons rather than an increase in the bid price itself. Their dicking about has essentially cost them 1.5m quid after the only club to register concrete interest with a big close to their valuation called their bluff and moved on to other targets.
Based on last Saturday's game, Widell will be the one making way. I'd like to see Franco and this new boy in a solid 2 at the base, doing the hard work, with Galbraith allowed a bit further forward.
Either that or it would free Widell to play in a more attack minded position as a number 10
Wasn’t Widell that good on Saturday?
What did i post the other day about leverage?
He didn't do it for me tbh. Missed an absolute sitter, and Galbraith and Franco stood out far more in terms of their contributions to the team. I'm not drawing any firm conclusions on him obviously because it's way too early for that, but if it's a question of which one of those three makes way for this Brighton boy, then it's got to be him I think. For now at least.
He was a distant second to Galbraith imo. Looked good to me but don't think LW should be his position for us.
And so it shouldn't, Widell's best positions are either CM as a number 8 or CAM as a number 10
Ideally i'd like to see how a three of Galbraih, Franco and Widell do together. It would have been nice if we would have tested that out in pre-seaso, but Sheehan decided against it for some reason.
