Pearce looking to bring Harry Maguire to Nottingham

{Ed034's Note - good player


1.) 13 May 2014
Express and Star report 13/5 that Wolves are after Maguire and Callum Wilson


2.) 13 May 2014
Good player will cost 2 mil so if this is true one of our central defenders is on the way out


3.) 13 May 2014
Collins on his way out, talk of Halford could also be shown the door.
So there could be some truth behind this.


4.) 13 May 2014
Forest would not pay wages wolves would offer plus we dnt need another cb

{Ed034's Note - a??


5.) 14 May 2014
So Mightyoak you don`t think we need another CB. you are more than happy with Collins, Halford being back up.

Lets just hope we don`t get any injuries as we have had this season just gone, and let's all hope that Pearce does not see it that way.

{Ed034's Note - lascelles, hobbs, Wilson, Collins and halford....I agree with you mightyoak


6.) 14 May 2014
Keep Halford as last resort and replace Collins with a younger up and coming CB


7.) 14 May 2014
Peltier can play cb has done so for leeds and is a more usefull all rouner ie full back/cb/midfield. Let both collins and halford go and sign him. If we sell lascelles then bring in this young lad as a back up as well. Three salaries gone and 2 in place off, financial sense plus we have more positions covered


8.) 14 May 2014
Yeah, we do have plenty of CBs, but this season proved if we have some inuries, back up is not at the required quality level.

Collins is really terrible and Halford is not a lot better. I think we do need another quality CB

{Ed034's Note - our biggest problem came in central midfield. if we had had Vaughan, reid and Lansbury playing, we would have coped with the defence injuries. they were left too open and over ran

Collins could be overrun by a snail he's that slow defo need some better more mobile options in defence


10.) 14 May 2014
Ì agree with what you say, Ed, however, I still maintain that collins would get overun by a toddler even if we had Viera and Keane in their heyday playing in front of him, let alone Vaughn and Henri! We do need solid back up, not collins. He is nowhere near being solid

{Ed034's Note - I disagree.


11.) 14 May 2014
Collins and Halford are far too inconsistent, we need our back up to be better as your only as strong as your weakest link, sign him up.


12.) 14 May 2014
Clearly we have too many armchair fans when they keep slaughtering our centre backs.

Any centre half looks useless when there is no cover in front of the back four. In that position you have 3 choices, either close the advancing player down, protect the route to goal or go with your striker.

The ball player has all the options so the centre half has little chance.

Collins is a quality defender and has been sound when we have a strong midfield doing their job.

Have seen a lot of collins this season, simply not good enough, positional sense is poor, makes far too many mistakes and has no pace. Maguire would be a good squad addition.
