Looked our best player against St.Gallen, perhaps the answer to our 4th choice CB is already at the club?

Will more likely to go out on loan, thereby encouraging his development, whereas he's unlikely to see too much action as fourth choice here (granted, it'll be of a far higher standard if it materialises).

He will not develop any further as 4th choice CB and would just stagnate here in that circumstance. It would serve him better to go out on loan to League 1/Championship, and it has been suggested that there is interest.

You're probably right. I don't think he'd let us down though if given the chance.

I thought he was great in the friendly... let's see whether Reading or Sheff U fold and allow us to buy their respective prize assets...

How ****ing funny is it that the famous Leeds Utd (champions of Europe) are borrowing our 7th choice centre back :lol:

yes due to suspensions and injuries he did get on the bench, but he must realise that his inclusion in the 25 man squad is very unlikely unless we sell a couple of centrebacks

Well thats the point of a squad. i was just correcting idea that he never was "remotely" close to "the first team". He was.

His inclusion in the 25 man squad is indeed very unlikely, for this season at least, if as looks quite likely he goes on loan to Leeds. If he does go though, I really hope it is a loan, not a sale.

Full back. Let's not bother with players playing out of position - it rarely works well.

I suspect that it might soon be only Dunk, Duffy, Clarke and Burn ahead of White too - if indeed that isn't the case already.

The man himself has said CB is his favourite position so it wouldn't be a round peg in a square hole.
