From a Bolton fan "His most natural position is CAM, he is too lightweight to be playing as more of a conventional Central Midfielder and hasn't really got the engine to be box-to-box based on what I have seen of him. On the ball he can really make things happen with brilliant close control and good weight of pass, it's the off the ball stuff he needs to work on."

Sorry, being thick now...CAM is (presumably) Central A.... Midfield....what's the missing word?

Is that known as a number 10 in modern parlance?

When was the last time we made two signings two days in a row costing money.....anyone? Two decades plus I'm guessing.

No. It’s known as Payne’s position!
You know that the world doesn't end if Payne doesn't sign right Aud? Don't get me wrong, he's a good player, but.. |

I reckon Payne is as good as gone now with that signing. Disappointing as he is my favourite Town player of the last 10 years, possibly since Matt Ritchie. To counter balance that though, very encouraged that we are making permanent signings. Last season's so called 'season long loans' screwed us up big time....

I'd have rather kept Reed personally if it was a choice of picking one midfield player to keep. If we manage to keep Payne it would be fantastic but I'm 99% consigned to him leaving.

Oh, I agree. If he goes, he goes. Not holding my breath. Needs sorting now - either way. I’d imagine the last 2 signings equate to Payne’s salary. Good business, I reckon. |

I'm kind of torn between the importance of both players and I'm probably just on the side of Louis Reed, I reckon he makes the team tick and never really seems to have a terrible game. Don't get me wrong, Payne is class but if Darcy can step up and be 3/4 of the player Payne is, we have a more than adequate replacement I reckon at a much lower price point and a higher potential ceiling I guess? |
