Yes, I like that - think he's a good CB, within our budget, right age, PL experience.

Clearly after another centre back aren't we? What with this and the O'Shea link.

Suspect that would mean Edmundson leaves.

Might be unpopular by Woolfie is our first choice RCB and I think he lacks the pace for this division. Hope I’m wrong mind.

Good prem experience, not what I’d call an exciting signing but could be a good addition.

Given this, and other recent links, McKenna clearly thinks we do!

Watched him a lot for Wales. A CB comfortable with the ball at his feet.
No, not the most exciting but a realistic shout and the PL experience he has would help.

If we're playing three at the back then having six centre backs on the books isn't unreasonable? Tuanzebe, Edmundson, Burgess, Woolfenden, Greaves, e.g. Mepham.

Same :(

Although the continued look for another centre back makes me think that a back three is increasingly likely (and be interested to see whether they'd consider Woolfenden to be the centre of those or the right hand side of it).

Why Edmundson? He’s been a much stronger prospect in his correct right CB position. He defends very well alongside, Greaves or Burgess. The defensive pretender has always been Woolfenden. He vastly overrated by some on here, and there’s better CB’s at this club than him.

Can only imagine how frustrating you have found the last two years with our genius manager consistently picking him ahead of everyone else. Must be so annoying being you.

Woolfie is ok for league 1/championship but he lacks a bit of pace for PL and he doesn’t have a good enough footballing brain to make up for the lack of pace imho

I heard that the issue is that we've offered tracksuits from Matalan, but they want Bukta Sport as the minimum standard.

I think his development has been fantastic under McKenna. But I also think, looking at some of the issues Lambert and Cook seemed to have with him, that it's a case of perfect manager for the player so, if and when McKenna goes, Woolfenden's development could stall.

I do believe there is an over-arching approach on here, though, that Woolfenden gets called out for things which other defenders in the squad get away with.
