Is anyone else thinking that Bishop and Griffiths aren't quite the right fit for us.
Conspiracy warning.
I wouldn't be surprised to hear that Bishop kept us hanging on for an MK Dons offer that was promised but was only ever a second option if Eisa wouldn't sign and that we then looked elsewhere - an example of a player holding out for more that he is likely to get this season?
And isn't Griffiths fourth in line at WBA. Wouldn't it make more sense that we actually take Palmer for another season? Why take a 19 year old in order to loan out an 18 year old. If Long has nearly as much potential as Griffiths, stick him in. If not we have to be looking at someone better than a 19 year old surely.
No, personally I'm still hoping for them both to show up in next few days.
Bishop and Sorensen would mean we replace Grant with one and potentially improve on what we have already with the other.
Long would be too big a gamble this year I would have thought. But if MA thought different, so be it.
You should get better as you get older but you can still be extremely good at 18/19.
As I think Griffiths will show.
... and we can do better than Palmer.
