We’re signing players in my opinion on a formation that’s dictated by playing Tomlin who’s often either unfit or injured.
When he is 100% he’s arguably one of the best players in the division but the risk is quite a big one, considering he’s just signed a new contract presumably on big wages.
We're building a system around a creative player. We need creative players otherwise we just end up with plodders. It's not like we're building the entire team around a really good left back. We shouldn't rely on just Tomlin but I'd sign more players like him, not less. I really don't understand your point at all. If we sell Tomlin, we've got Ralls as our next best option. I really like Joe but he isn't going to see the passes Tomlin does!

but we're not Man City, therefore building a Championship team around a 31 year old who's one of the best creative players in the division is not as crazy an idea
Re: Should we sell Tomlin
I think a PL loan is the best option as cover for Tomlin.

Spot on Hilts and if we got promoted we could possibly afford to sign him! Leeds,WBA and Fulham all had top Premier League loans!
