Crafty Canary 495 Posted January 30, 2017 I don''t see this ne happening. Wigan don''t want to sell hi and he''s under contract so they can put a crazy transfer fee on him.As he would be the replacement for Brady this presumably would mean that Brady will be staying if we can''t get this deal done. He won''t be a happy bunny if that happens. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
morty 0 Posted January 30, 2017 Once a player puts in a transfer request, especially during a transfer window, its pretty inevitable whats going to happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Branston Pickle 3,657 Posted January 30, 2017 Sky are saying that he''s put in a transfer request, so I guess there''s a strong possibility he''ll be off - seems us and Derby are in the running; the Sky story seems to concentrate on Derby but says they aren''t sure they can afford him.

Branston Pickle 3,657 Posted January 30, 2017 Quite so - it''s not often a transfer request being handed in ends with the player staying, but it does happen (eg I think Wes did?). It''s up to us to beat Derby to his signature. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GJP 79 Posted January 31, 2017 Apologies if this has been mentioned earlier because I haven''t bothered to read through the thread but Wildschut and Dijks appear to have been team mates at Heerenveen for a season and may have been in the Dutch U21 at the same time.

Tetteys Jig 830 Posted January 31, 2017 Brady has a decent wage and has time on his side. His spot for Ireland isn''t going any time soon either. Whilst I''m sure he''d jump at the chance of a decent prem move, I reckon he''d happily wait until Summer if it meant the right club coming in for him.I''ll be happy enough if we get this deal for Dijks through the door and Brady ends up staying tbh. Things look like they are finally starting to click for him and us this season.Saying that, if dijks arrived, would Brady keep his spot at left back or would we push him up to lm at naismiths expense?

Highland Canary 76 Posted January 31, 2017 Can''t see any ins, even on loan, without Brady out. Doubt we can compete with Derby. So, Brady out, loan in and no Yanic is my prediction. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rogue Baboon 0 Posted January 31, 2017 We already have a huge whole at left back we need to fill desperately, regardless of Brady.Ideally I would like a LB in with another on loan (Dijks), then if we sell Brady we need somebody at LM as wellSeems we have left it far too late to sort out that amount of deals, frustrated as we sold Olsson a few weeks ago and could have potentially shifted Brady at the start of the window Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mason 47 1,379 Posted January 31, 2017 A stocky winger who has hit great form since dropping down a level in club and sorting out his weight + fitness issues. Now very good at running in a straight line very fast and smacking the ball very hard.By all means, I like that we''re targeting a bit of directness and power to help break teams down and I think he does look alright. But does anyone else draw comparisons between this situation and what happened with Lee Croft in his time with us? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thirsty Lizard 3,164 Posted January 31, 2017 Mason - he''s hardly stocky - he''s 6ft 1. And if you think he''s only about running in a straight line you haven''t looked very hard - he''s clearly got plenty of skill when he''s on the ball. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
