Jhon Lucumi - Transfer Rumour

I don't think he is neither, but some are suggesting that we change the whole backline around. Playing Huggins means only one player is really out of position with Reinaldo having played at CB before.

If there's no new player in, we'll just have to do the best with what we've got, and that to me means trying to make the least changes as possible. It'll be hard enough on the lads playing in their normal roles.

Yes, I'd agree with that.

I really don’t agree. Injured and vulnerable but his quality is underrated to me, especially be you it seems.
Id say he was our best player in the championship for that spell he had the season before last. Even my old dad who has little good to say is always talking about how much he wants him fit.

Fair enough. I can't recall him ever standing out. He makes the odd run and that's it. He's physically pretty week and has looked technically poor in pre-season - although I accept that he's come off a really long lay off. We'll have to agree but I feel he is the most over rated on here within our current squad. Its almost like absence makes the heart grow fonder.

He's only played limited minutes in friendlies after over a year out. Time will tell

Way over rated on here. He's OK running with the ball in front of him but his ball control is suspect. He is a championship player at best. If he can have a run of fitness I would expect Huggins natural level would be L1 or Championship.

Championship yes. League 1 you’re being over the top

I'm really not sure. If he left us I could see him slide down the leagues. However, overall his injury record will ultimately cost him. He'll be 25 in December and has played a total of 29 first team games. Poor lad will be luck to get to a career 100, although I hope I'm wrong.

And that, as you've so brilliantly put it is why he, along with a couple of others need to go. Good players they may be but not able to play and as such a drain on our resources.

I'd Imagine we send him out on loan hoping he can get a full season under his belt. Wrexham maybe a decent shout as they are interested in all the Welsh players

His ariel ability is poor and he gave goals away last season, i don't know what the clamour is for him, personally!

Watched a bit of Bologna over the last few seasons and keep up fairly regularly with seria A. When I’ve seen him he’s been very decent. The Italian football podcast I listen to describe him as one of the best defenders in seria a.

You do realise that Triantis only played at centre half once last season?

That one appearance as a defender was when we lost 2 0 in the cup to Preston.

Playing well as a defensive midfielder in the SPL doesn’t mean he’s going to all of a sudden become a premier league defender.

He was also pretty mediocre as a defender in the SFPL - his performances picked up after he was shifted to DM.
