He's a risk but if he hadn't had issues would we even have a prayer ? Why Liverpool loanee still hasn't debuted for his new club WWW.THISISANFIELD.COM

Jurgen Klopp admits Rhys Williams surprise after defender returns to Liverpool from disappointing Aberdeen loan - Aberdeen Live WWW.ABERDEENLIVE.NEWS

Balmer has been a major disappointment. Seemed a nailed on starter when we signed him. Injured pre season. He's then played in fits and starts and looked far from comfortable with the ball despite his background at Palace. Just hasn't worked out for him or Vale.

Can many managers to be fair. It's brutal. Dog eat dog.

Had awful loan at Aberdeen where he didn't play a single game. Got recalled a couple of weeks ago. Makes sense.

Last seen pictured in a hospital bed with a bad injury.

After past mistakes I try not to judge a player by stats . Having seen Loft in person. Other than Wigan and Blackpool he's been one of the most disinterested donkeys I've seen down the Vale. Any comparison with Wilson based on stats is pretty comical. Loft needs carting off. Cut our losses, pay him up whatever.

There is no crystal ball for a lower league double figures goalscoring midfielder. He's irreplaceable. All we can do is hope goals get shared about.

Yes but you'd like to think they are thought out and considered in the summer. Although Loft disproves that theory. January are people like Cass and Conlon. Or Matt Taylor. Dregs who can't get in teams or overpriced players.

Perhaps I should have said McCarron instead, he was deadline day wasn't he? No 👎. Because i remember him at Derby away in October. Either way. January is notoriously a time for other people's cast offs.

Mipo was an August signing.

Off topic ( as such as doesn't involve ourselves) but I see Azaz has signed for Middlesbrough on permanent deal. You could tell he was a heck of a player when he was at Newport.

Wow .

Am I in a group of one who cringes when I see the name James Gibbons bandied around ? No thanks

January is notorious for panic buys. Hopefully we are more considered as we were with Connor Hall rather than reactionary with Matty Taylor.

Don't know anything about him mate but how is someone who can't get in mid-table Bradford side going to improve us ? Has he done well at Swindon?.

I thought Rooney did an excellent job at Derby and wasn't far off keeping them up despite having a points deduction. Obviously he's struggled at Brum but they are going to be the new Watford. Basket case owners.

Any left sided defenders about who play 1 in 3 games that we can offer a 2 year deal to ?

Very hit and miss. I'd guess it's League one ish standard. Good shout though. Oxford have tried with varying success. Mark Sykes I think was Northern Ireland Premier and he's holding his own in our Championship. Or that Cooper we had on loan wasn't any good.

Issue with Jones is remarkably he has 18 months left on his contract. Highly unlikely to have any suitors as he's continually injured. Always found the comments about Wilson funny as Jones goes under the radar. Made of glass. Legs of straw etc etc. Yet Wilson has played a lot more games than Jones. A truly astonishing decision to dish a 2 year deal. Couldn't grab the pen quickly enough.

Spot on. But without Ojo and Sang currently we're looking a lot worse off than that night.

Excuse my ignorance and stupid question but I assume the Jan window opens on 1st and closes the 31st . Presumably tonight is Wilsons last game unless we offer a new deal.

Is this an opportunity for Sang in centre midfield 🤔?

I think Conlon is done. It's sad how it's panned out as 2 years ago he was our best player. Possibly too laborious for the way we try and play now. And if he couldn't make the bench v Barnsley then when will he .

Humongous loss. For us oldies the best loan impact I've seen since David Lowe. A fantastic young talent. Goes back with best wishes for a great career. Over to our recruitment now.
