Thread: Whyte to Hull

  1. #26

    Re: Whyte to Hull

    In the short term, we don't have the biggest squad so cutting a player even for a limited period of time is a risky move. He appeared to be one who Harris was trying to build up into a productive player this season.

    In the longer term, Gavin Whyte has one of the longest contracts at the club (he's in the Bacuna club as is Nelson, Moore and Phillips to give you an idea) and he needs a run of games to turn potential into performance and then regular performances.

    We have players in the youth set up that can fill in wide when needed.

    Whyte should have been out on loan all season.

    Whyte is contracted until 2023? Christ, at least he'll be useful in League One for us in his final season

    Bad transfer all round. How much was spent on him? 1m?

    That’s exactly the question that crossed my mind given previous dealings. However, the Transfermarket website which usually mentions player agents does not do so for Gavin Whyte.

    I agree with you it's risky and worries me considering our injury history of late and subs management. I wouldn't send him out on loan when we could be in a real scrap as the season ends. Depends what Harris has up his sleeve re. a replacement. I'm not a fan of too many loan players and actually don't want another one signed - at least the contracted players are City players and we're not going to be doing much this season so may as well develop the lad. I know I'll probably be in the minority here.

    Cardiff City paid Oxford United £1.98m for Gavin Whyte
    Brentford paid Oxford United £675k for Tariqe Fosu-Henry.

    Probably sold magic beans as well

    An argument against changing manager: paying off Harris and backroom staff is money better spent on scouting systems.

    Harris didn't sign these players. In fairness to Harris, he rebuilt the scouting and his recruitment has been good.
