Hudson and Turner good enough for the prem?

Do you think Hudson and Turner are good enough for the premiership?

Hudson is, he makes every partner look far better than they are when he is not with them.

I think Turner will be fine.

Not together.
We'll need a quick defender and a good distributor alongside one of them. Hudson and another for me.

Agree Turner although a good defender does not have the pace to cope with the forwards we will encounter next year. Having said that Hudson for me is head and shoulders the best player this season for us. If we sign a speedy sweeper type player then both would be ok but only one of them would play.

Next year we will need mor guile in midfield and two forwards to push both Bellers & Campbell. Great performance yesterday. Not playing at our best but ground out a result and given yesterday and today's results a fantastic position to be in.

I know he's signed a contract, but would love Ramsey back. Would be a perfect addition to our midfield.

Sorry, forgot to add... yes and no. Neither are quick enough though.

Hudson yes
Turner has the potential but for me he has gone backwards from last season.

We will certainly need another two CB's though

Hudson - for sure. He's grown and grown over the last two seasons, when we think back to how he was under Jones. This season he's been a rock and the first name on the team sheet. Will easily be good enough for the Premier League.

Turner - i'm not so sure. He was fantastic in the second half of last season and I was really looking forward to seeing him this season, but I must admit i've been disappointed. He's been a shadow of the player he was. So, if he plays like he has recently, no. But if he plays like he did last season, yes.

Agree that we'll need to buy a minimum of two centre backs for next season though.

Turner will be fine as a stopper when injury free.

Alongside him, we'll need someone who can play out of the back.

Hudson and another, with pace. Turner would be ideal for the bench I reckon :ayatollah:

Hudson without a doubt, Turner not good enough for premier league too slow and cumbersome and distribution is appalling.

Don't see why not.

Turner is perfect for the Premier League.. not judging this season but he is a Premier League type defender.

I agree with you there he does tend to just hoof it up the field a lot and in the premiership that is no good because we will just giving the ball away and they will attack and punish us in the prem, need to keep the ball and play.
