Caulker going...

Fri Jul 18, 2014 11:41 pm

Why is it I'm not devastated that Caulker is going? When you think about it, he played every minute of every game last season, during which the defence let in the opposition to score a shed load of goals...which would have been even more without the brilliance of Marshall. Sure, other defenders contributed to the problem, but Caulker doesn't get off the hook either...so, we claw some money back, reduce the wage bill, and make a fresh start... :bluescarf:

Was our best defender but I agree didn't look that good. ... though he had poor players around him

if he stayed with us i feel most champ sides would fail to score against him. he, in turn, would pressumably improve and be closer to prem quality if (when) we go back up next year.

far from devestated though, im very happy we still have Cala :)

I'm happy with our back 4 even when Caulker goes

Brayford Hudson/Turner Cala Fabio

That's very good for championship level

I agree, although IMO we would have benefited from having a good captain and reader of the game alongside him, as I don't believe he showed any captaining qualities last season!
