Re: Who would you keep?
Dave Artell has stated Wrexham would need to buy Brad Walker. That's a Second Div side saying they are willing to sell a player, that isn't in their first team, to a Conference side.
We are aiming for the second division. Dave Artell might be wrong, but I don't see a flood of offers coming in for Brad Walker from anywhere else, based on his previous record. I don't think anyone else on here sees the defensive midfielder as a weakness, but look at it another way : If Walker, Summerfield, Young is our best midfield, then who is the weakest out of that three? |

Re: Who would you keep?
Weakest in what way? Walker is the most limited footballer of the three (although he can certainly pass the ball) but he plays a completely different role to the other two.
He's also only 22. He fits the profile of players we should be signing Imo. |

Re: Who would you keep?
To clarify my last post : I was asking others to rank Walker as a defensive midfielder and rank Summerfield and Young in their respective roles against other persons who play these roles. I'd say Summerfield and Young are near the top of the Conference players for their positions. I'd say Walker is not as high in the rankings as a defensive midfielder and we should get a better one.
I am not attacking Walker for being bad at his job. I simply believe we could get major rewards with someone of the ability of Russell Penn, but with the physical attributes of Walker. That would not be cheap. That's why I estimated a cost of 250K. Last season Keates wasted his time chasing Cook, we could waste our time chasing Rowe/Bonne this year. I have far greater confidence in getting a classy defensive midfielder in January and more confidence that with better service the attack we've got would work better. |

So you feel that Wrexham, with a chance of promotion and money in the bank should sign a player meeting those descriptions? |
