Will Osei-Tutu's injury cause you to dip into free agent market?


NEIL HARRIS:

"Hindsight is a wonderful thing!

"Where did the budget allow us to strengthen the team? We went at the top end of the pitch. Will we go for free agents? I wouldn’t have thought so.

"I have had superb backing in the last transfer window. Sometimes you just have to get on with it.

"If someone was available who I felt would make us better then that’s a discussion for me to have with the board.

"It’s worth remembering with the free agents market that players might be available and on paper they look OK. But there is not a player available who will be fit enough to play in the next three weeks.

"So, if we got anyone in now they wouldn’t be available until the end of November. So it’s always that balance with free transfers."

There are lots of free agents fighting to get a club, some just sit on their arse and wait, but I guess there are many that have been training to get as fit as they can so if a club comes in for them, they are as fit as they will ever be, the only thing lacking is match practice. I think that Harris is quite happy using Baccuna as a right back, but surely he can see that Baccuna needs to be in midfield, we are really missing him there.
I would put Nelson at RB and bercatov ?? in the center, and get Baccuna back where he should be :thumbup:
