L1 interest in Greg Leigh 14:37 - Jul 3 with 5562 viewsitfcjoe

According to Stuart Watson on todays KoA podcast.

Also wonders if we would replace him, or just let JD cover both sides [maybe Humphreys too - my view] as would help with getting squad down to size.

He suggests 4 more signings (CB, Versatile forward, CF x2) with Camara to go - plus would look at Evans, Harness and Leigh as other options

If we keep Ladapo, I'm really not sure we need another three forwards.

As for full/wing back, we've already let KVY go, which is fine, so to let Leigh go without replacing him would leave us pretty thin in that area. If Clarke and Davis are both out for whatever reason, I wouldn't want to be tackling the Championship with JD and a total makeshift. Clearly if Leigh really wants to leave then one has to think about it, but there's a lot to like about his performances on the left, and when you add to that a little bit of positional versatility, and his musical stylings, it would be a little bit of a shame to see him go. Unless we've got some magic bullet lined up of course, but given that Davis has his starting 11 place nailed on, that seems unlikely.

I think Leigh should stay personally. He's very solid cover for Davis, a bigger alternative against some opponents, capable of playing CB or in a three as well I would say, seems to be low maintenance, plus he's our Frank Sinatra too!


Subbing Leigh on for Davis to see games out was a very effective tactic in the early part of last season too; you'd think this season we'll have tougher matches where our wide men will have to put in a bigger shift with more recovery runs, so would prefer to have specialist cover for Davis on the left rather than asking someone to "do a job" there.

I can't see us letting Leigh go unless we sign another promising young LB - especially given the 9 subs next season - I can see Leigh on the bench every week as LB and potentially CB cover every week...

Arguably we had ghe two best LBs in League 1. We are looking to strengthen both squad and team this summer, so starting by weakening a key strength would be odd, unless we already had a better replacement for either.
