Quote Gotcha="Gotcha"At no point, or that statement has the lad demanded a shirt. He told the club weeks ago he wants to be a fullback, not an half. The club see it differently. End of day though, that isn't all it is down to, I said his management company were actively touting. His reputation went up since initial talks. At no point though has he said he asked for a starting spot.
We have let one fullback go in last twelve months, that we will never have one as good for a long long time, to lose a good one again would be pretty poor from the club. I think that announcement was a mistake, if only shown by the comments since. They should have kept it in house, as I personally think they would have changed. That second offer is more than Wire offered.
I agree with your later comment though, for me if someone is going don't enhance the reputation further, look at next option.'"
So what guarantees does he want then?
There's a huge difference between saying i only want to play at FB & seeking actual guarantees he plays there.
Burrow wanted to play 7 but got on with it at 9.
Numerous players have been prepared to A. Earn their spot & B.Play anywhere for the Team.
Either way like i said earlier both sides seem to have got this wrong.
