Good loan for him under a good manager.

It’ll be Lissah surely.

Lissah can play full back or center half right?
Agree though that we might utilize Lissah who has had a stellar season on loan with Falkirk and send out Parker to develop for a season as well, wouldn't surprise me if he was also sent to Falkirk considering how well they have done with Lissah and Wilson

Would be an excellent loan for him, Huddersfield are at the right end of the table and challenging for promotion and their playoffs. Should be an excellent step up to get him playing for a team who are probably at lower Championship standard already making the transition to a team who are middle championship standard (us) easier for him next year

Need to bring in a striker now surely. Not sure Matos sees Cullen as a striker despite saying that he’s an option to play there.

Surely Lissah comes in as 2nd choice RB and 4th choice CB next season?

I would be happy with Cullen as back up plus Matos has played a false 9 in 1 game I can remember this season.

Ideal world we get a striker in but we have options if we don't.

Why have second choice this fourth choice that? What we need is a competitive squad where everyone is capable of fighting for the jersey.

Gives him more room to fantasise about extra players we will never sign.

Who cares who recommended a player or influenced his arriving in SA1.Only their positive contributions to the club on and off the pitch matter.

Don’t be naive. People have an insatiable appetite to be “right” and they have to “prove” it. Why do you think this thread is 80 pages long and people claim exclusives all the time.

Edit. 100 pages. Which proves my point really.

Thats a good point Smurph.
It just seems to be something the club looks like it has done with it's approach.
Santos being 4th choice
Ward being back up etc

But your point is pretty good and makes you think.

I’m not sure about that to be honest, Cullen is always best for us as a midfielder, feel we need someone who is naturally suited to the striker role. A real shame that Idah is injured.

As I say I'm ideal world then I agree but finances come into it also.

Extra players! We have about 10 central midfielders already!

Finances, which you know absolutely nothing about, none of us on here do.

And squad harmony. Very difficult to keep players happy that expect to be starters, even looking at someone like Casey you could see how unhappy he was with his role in the team.
