Let’s be honest, we could have Bobby Moore and Frank (😉) Beckenbaur at centre back and half us Town fans would still reminisce fondly about watching Pat Scully clearing the ball into the Colne.

Let's not get carried away. That Dutch division isn't up to much going by Nakayama and Bacuna What’s wrong with Nakayama and Bacuna? Nothing particularly wrong with them but just using them as examples of players who were more than capable in the top Dutch division but once in the championship were nothing special. It seems a bit like the SPL where you've got those stand out teams and the rest of it is pretty poor. This lad is coming from a division below that so all I'm saying is don't get carried away thinking he's the next Van Dijk

As I've said on many occasions previously, Bacuna was one of the most technically gifted players that we've ever had. Still didn't cut any mustard with many fans on here though.

Only just signed for Watford ? Signed in the summer.like others have said think we tried for him but he went there 😀 sloppy seconds!! Not bad quality wise as second to Radulovic for a team in our position.

Wonder if Diarra to Watford/Udinese, like Camara, could play a part in any deal…

It seems a bit like the SPL where you've got those stand out teams and the rest of it is pretty poor. This lad is coming from a division below that so all I'm saying is don't get carried away thinking he's the next Van Dijk I think one of the differences is having decent players around you. A good player in a poor team is going to struggle. I think, when we get injured players & Nakayama back, and if we can increase our attacking options, players will have a lot more passes to pick. Against Middlesbrough we were pretty fluid down the left and if we could do that both sides and through the middle it changes everything. A decent ball playing right sided centre back could be crucial to that.

Wasnt that Ashley Barnes he was referring to about the 3x wages? And Jay Stansfield/Charlie Patino the ones that went elsewhere?

And Jay Stansfield/Charlie Patino the ones that went elsewhere? Rhys Healeys name was definitely mentioned on here. Although if we are going for him now then that would suggest it was a Cartwright target rather than a Warnock one.

Omobamidele- could he not be the international centre half, we were looking at . He has only just left Norwich for big money last September, but until tonight hadn't played for Forrest?
