We could move Merlin on:
Pro's
- avoid fee
- injury prone player
- barely figured all season
- heard on this forum he left for surgery in Germany without clarity with EFC around leave/ treatment. May not be true. if true, it wreaks.
- cements...
I think both could do a very good job for us at the right price.
Delap has more to offer than what's on show at Chelsea. A settled team and a simpler Moyes set up I personally think would see much more from him.
Moyes has done an excellent job, but yes, his complete mistrust of young players is a very real concern, especially when he leaves and we will have a very ageing squad
Is Barry on the bad list? He's played in every game, you'd have to admit that's probably a lot more than what they would have expected from him at the start of the season, and he's scored a few on the way. He might not play like it yet but that...
Last summer was grim. Full backs a joke. Little room for Rohl, and Dibling not the player we needed. Barry raw. I wasnt in favour of the gamble on Jack, either.
Fast forward 8 months
- were competing for Europe
- team is working hard
- KDH ...
