If we buying bridgcutt. How much his he worth with 1 year left on contract.
Could we offload a player in deal.
Theirs still at least 4 players in our squad that we need off wage bill.
As much as I'd like a more experienced keeper. Smith is doing fantastic and getting better all time.
Was puzzled by warbo dropping Manchienne and playing mills. But mills did have a good game.
So did osbourne. Everyone in fact.
Still need centre half aswel as bridgcutt.
If we address this we could be in the mix for playoffs. What a turn around.

I'm sure he played Mills instead of Mancienne for his height and ariel ability against the threat of Gestede who is 6'4".

For me Osbourne is a winger. He plays backwards to often and gives the ball away too much when in the centre and when Vaughan got injured and Osbourne moved central yesterday we slowed down and didn't have as many ch positive play or bite in the centre. On the wing Osbourne is much more positive running, passing and Moving and pulling defenders to create openings and space. We need a midfielder to cover and compete with Vaughan and Cohen along side Bouch, hopefully the Bridcutt deal will go through.

The defence looked better yesterday but we still let Boro open us up several times and on another day we could have let in 3/ 4 if not for poor finishing from Britt and some good saves from Smith.
A solid tackler in midfield like Bridcutt and maybe a more mobile leader at the back than Mills (or a more physical defender than Manchienne who can also play the ball) and we should be much improved.
