WEST BROM IN CARDIFF TALKS
West Brom have already been busy on Transfer Deadline Day and the Sky Bet Championship promotion hopefuls are closing in on adding another name to their ranks.
That addition comes in the form of 33-year-old Lee Peltier from Cardiff, with Nathan Ferguson potentiall on his way to Crystal Palace.
Heard that earlier but didn’t think anything of it.
Seems to be a bit of truth in it.
I’m confused at our clubs stance for the rest of the season, are we going for a late play off push or not? By letting Peltier leave we will be left short in another position. Can’t imagine we’ve got a replacement lined upQuote:

Jazz isn’t good enough to hold down a place in the first team imo.
If there’s another RB incoming then it’s mad to let Pelts go.
Must be an attractive proposition for him though.
It is a bit confusing but if we have had a decent offer for a player who is out of contract in the summer then maybe too good to turn down He is probably on good money as well. Might explain his absence over the last couple of games.Quote:

The fella is a proper defender - Adama Traore has every defender in the PL sh1tting their pants when he runs at them. You never knew he was on the pitch when Peltier marked him
OK he's not Cafu and he is not the type to bomb on and beat the full back and put in a peach of a cross but you know he will defend properly not like what we witnessed Tuesday.
Proper player - like Morrison - gives everything and proud to wear the shirt - I can understand it if he's on big money and out of contract in 6 months but I don't like it. Deserved a proper send off too.
Same with Manga and Pilks.Quote:

Rather him with me than against when the going gets tough. Would be a big loss, the classic case of not noticing a player until he’s not playing.
Would be sad to see him go. He's been one of our most consistent players this season and one of the few from the premier League squad who's form hasn't declined.
This makes me laugh. No one really appreciated him when he was here. Now you're all crying because he's going. Couldn't make it up. He's aging. Doesn't have many years left in him and we need to cut the wage bill. Makes sense to me.
Good luck to him if he goes, he's been fantastic for us. He may want the move, closer to home maybe a wage increase or an incentive if they get promoted and closer to Liverpool. Good, solid and reliable defender who knows his limitations, that's his strength.
I don't agree. Most of our fans have appreciated what Peltier brings.Quote:

We have Richards , Coxe, Nelson, Bacuna, who can cover right back.
If we can get money for him I’d say let him go. Good servant but we are not going to give him a new contract.
Bacuna is not a right back, Jazz is a sick note and Coxe probably won’t ever be ready. If we do not sign another right back then this is a stupid decision.Quote:

If it happens clubs a joke!
Very underrated player who will be missed. Thanks for your efforts, Lee, top man.
Might make sense financially but not for this season and whilst lots think we got no chance of doing anything its still possible.
And he’s probably happy to go.Quote:

Better to start to offload ageing players and start the re build
Pelts saying goodbye. A week ago.

I think he was just reflecting on the milestone. It doesn't suggest he's moving in that Tweet, JC!Quote:

True Pelts is getting older but he is a fit player and our best defender. I love his attitude and professionalism. We have to rebuild the team I know, and the back line has been poor this season - but I don't include Pelts in that. Very disappointing if he is off.
Dion Sanderson Wolves. Loan. 20 year old good prospectQuote:

Actually gutted about this
Did everything he could for us. Good pro, all the best for the future
