Good player and by all accounts a good pro who does a lot of community work. I’m sure the RS connection will be forgotten about given that. Wolves fans think very highly of him on and off the field and the only reason he’s available is that they are switching to a back four. That could prove to be shortsighted as who knows how long their manager will last.
We have enough CBS to play a back four even with our injuries. If we want to play a back five then Coady can do that very well, whilst offering more experience and consistency like Tarkowski has. Objectively, £12m for a proven English CB with his qualities is good business; given our injuries yesterday, it becomes essential business.
