Jewell Could Look at Dyer Again in Summer
Jewell Could Look at Dyer Again in Summer
Tuesday, 12th Apr 2011 14:13

Blues boss Paul Jewell has confirmed that he would be interested in bringing loan midfielder Kieron Dyer back to Portman Road in the summer if he was available. The 32-year-old finished his one-month loan back at Town at the weekend and returned to West Ham where his contract is up at the end of the season.

Jewell said he had been keen to keep Dyer until the end of the season: “We spoke at length, me and Kieron, and I spoke to West Ham on Friday morning to see if we could extend it.

“They didn’t come back to me with a no, but Kieron spoke to the manager Avram Grant and he said he wanted him to feature in some of the games between now and the end of the season.

“That’s his club and he has to go back and if things change in the summer we would be interested.”

With the talent that seems to be emerging in our youth sides along with some shrewed moves in the transfer market in the summer will there actually be a place in the town line up for Kieron??

He hasn't wasn't exactly a permanent fixture in the starting line up and from what I've seen of Carson i would prefer to give him a season to show us what he can do!

If we can get him on a pay as you play deal, I don't seem the harm of him coming back, as like Jimmy he can change a game with a moment of brilliance.

Would be a fantastic free signing in my opinion. A fit Dyer would walk most premier sides let alone the championship. If it happens I just hope he has some better luck with injuries.

Got to say, didn't think he brought much to the table on his return. As posted, surely only a pay per game contract would suit with his injuries.

Would be a very good experienced and versatile signing on a free to help the young kids come through ,if he plays half the games of a long season it is a bonus . Warnock signed Derry for the same reason and he has gone on to play in all games .
Come on home Keiron

With Bullard and Dyer adding experience (Premier League + over coming serious injuries) to the youngsters I think it be a marvelous thing for the club if we did somehow manage to sign them. A real statement of intent and a big step in the right direction.
Dont forget Dyer is a big game player and has plenty of international experience. Connor Wickham and the other young talents could learn alot from these two.

Thinking there is no room in our squad (or any squad in this league) for Keiron would be a Roy Keane type of bungle.

With Norris on his way in the summer then a Dyer may be the answer

Kieron. What a brilliant player he was
He should now retire
He does not fit in terms of expected pay.
It would be a terrible mistake to become sentimental

All, come on and get real - rose tinted specs off - He was here a month and missed more games than he played in.

Even on a free I would assume that he would expect more money than any of our existing squad and the wages could be better spent elsewhere.

He WAS a great player but the injuries have taken their toll and you'll struggle to see another team take him in the summer, what is it? about 17 games in the last 3 - 4 seasons? good luck with that.

If we want another Pablo - signed because of sentiment and not footballing sense i.e. getting a sprinkling of brilliance during a whole season of general disappointment - then sign him up, but you have to accept what we get and not complain when it all goes pearshaped (fat chance of that on here!).

And those using the youngsters as a reason for getting him in, If he wants to help our youngsters get him to retire and join town on a coaches wages.

I'll happily admit it if I'm proved wrong, but I just don't think I will be.

Would be a terrible signing. Lets hope PJ comes to his senses and targets a couple of strikers. Dyer is a has been. Flatted to deceive this time round and VERY injury prone!!!!!
