' PETER WHITTINGHAM/KADEEM HARRIS & JUNIOR HOILETT '



" Kadeem Harris is out of contract this summer and so is Peter Whittingham and Junior Hoilett '

Neil Warnock:

Kadeem Harris

“We’ve spoken to Kadeem, it’s like everyone else. I’ve spoken to [Peter] Whittingham, Kadeem and Junior [Hoilett].

“I’ve had to put things on the back burner until we can clarify this FFP. We’ve got to really know where we’re batting.
“Oh yeah (I want to keep Kadeem). I’ve had a meeting with his dad and they’ve been good meetings.
“I’ve said to his dad that he won’t play for anyone better than me. The grass is never greener anywhere else.
“When you know a player inside out, you can get the best out of him. So sometimes, it’s not just about money, it’s about being in the right place with the right manager at the right club.
“That’s the same when I try and sign players because quite a few players I talk to are offered more money elsewhere.”


" Peter Whittingham "

Neil Warnock:

"Whitts has been offered a new contract,we are still waiting on him to sign it"


" Junior Hoilett "

Neil Warnock:

"Junior knows our situation and I hope we can persuade him to stay"

I hope we retain all three, Whitts, Harris and Hoilett

Harris just needed someone to help develop his game and give him some confidence. Goodness knows what other managers have been doing at the club before Warnock and his coaching team.

I hope lambert moves on in the Summer and we bring in one or two strikers with better movement. With Noone, Holiett and harris plus another attacking midfield player I feel they would hugely benefit from more movement up front... Zohore is decent enough but not there yet.

Has anyone else noticed how better Ralls has also been playing recently? I discussed this with a friend who claimed Ralls does better when Whitts is not in the team as it seems Ralls takes on more responsibility which perhaps he doesn't when Whitts is playing. Maybe whitts is our version of Rooney? Great player but everyone players a little better when he's not starting? Not sure I agree but interesting to see what happens with Whitts. I would like him to stay but he is going to get less and less game time.

There has been a mass improvement with Kadeem since Warnock has been here. I believe Kadeem has it i him but needed nurturing. Warnock has done a good job on him. Hopefully he will sign another contract.

Holiett needs a club to settle down with. Offer him a 2 possible 3 year contract and under Warnock we will see the best of him.

Whitts I just don't know.

All three must be signed up. Even Whittingham. Even though he's not the player he used to be, he's been a loyal servant for 10 years and has stuck with us through good and bad times. He deserves a new contract out of respect and perhaps retire on a promotion winning season :ayatollah:

Hoilett has the ability to play way higher than us but needs stability, I hope he realises if he stays with us he can get that big move soon.

Kadeem has always had the potential and he is starting to show the potential was there and looks more mature now.. not often we have a winger that scores goals.

People don't notice Ralls as he does a lot of the graft in midfield like closing people down and tackling. His dead ball work isn't as good as Whitts, but his all round play is very good. I've made him my MOM often this season but he doesn't always stand out.

Out of those 3 Kads is the most vital to get tied down Whitts is doubtful and Hoilett I can see getting an extension.

Ralls is definitely a better player when Whitts is not in the team, I'm not sure why though. That said he is hopeless at taking free-kicks/corners.

I would agree with that. If we signed KH and missed out on the other 2 I could live with it.
