    If he is good enough for Huddersfield then surely he is good enough to have a role with us this season. If he isnt good enough then this is a genius move by the club weakening one of our rivals.

    A lot of the breaking transfer twitter accounts are doing this now so this person (Dr Nose!) is just following the trend

    I'll say it again, I'm glad the club are finally giving youth a chance.

    Kind of get it when Fab does it for a confirmed big money deal but kind of funny to see it wheeled out for a rumoured transfer of a fringe player from Watford to Huddersfield.

    All first team players last season. Not really the players Duxbury was talking about in the summer.

    There were young players on the bench too.

    Unless you think Edwards can’t assess a player, you can’t possibly want us to play someone potentially worse than Cleverly is now. That must be the inference if Edwards is happy to see him go to a potential rival.

    The ‘play young players’ demand usually ignores those young players, like Ngakia or Quina, who we’ve played and now want to bin off.

    A more reasonable demand is ‘buy better players’ or ‘develop better players’, but it’s hard to identify many youngsters we assessed incorrectly.

    You've taken a tongue in cheek comment far too seriously. Congrats.

    Also there is not a chance that TDB is worse than Cleverley based on last night, it was one of the worst performances I've seen and I doubt Edwards will want a repeat of it.

    I got the impression pre-season from the club media/WO etc that TDB was seen as being an active part of the squad this season and that Edward's rated him highly. so I would be surprised if we did suddenly sell him. Having said that it seems odd he didnt make the match day squad against United and he was shown warming up with the other players pre-game in a video on the clubs twitter feed today. Did he get a knock?

    Not sure we can always rely on what the club have said in the past to be accurate though ..

    I don't really know why, but my kids kept shouting "Tom Dele-Bashiru" before jumping in the pool yesterday.

    Maybe they were re-inacting jumping over a ticket barrier to avoid paying for a train ticket.

    Is that a shirt with udders stuck on it or a hole for his udders to poke through?

    Waiting on HG incomings before shipping him out?

    A shame actually because I rate him. Think he will turn out to be a good player. Hopefully just a loan?

    Odd that he played so regularly in pre season if Rob seemingly doesn't fancy him now

    Unless it's an injury or an off field issue, it's scandalous he wasn't at least given a chance. Home grown, young and he proved at Reading last season that he is pretty good at this level.

    If true then it's genuinely upsetting, really gutted for him.

    He was at that Junior Hornets day a few days ago so would be a very recent thing…

    Apparently this has come from a fairly reliable source (not one of mine) so looks likely.

    Really tough break for the lad (if true) - but you’d imagine it’ll be hard for him to come back to playing at this level again now. Age is on his side but not sure the body withstands that kind of thing a high amount of the time.
