Paper talk. Charlie Cresswell.

Interesting if true, appears to be an old-fashioned agricultural centre half. Not sure he gets in ahead of Lenihan or Fry but good prospect.

We do seem pretty well stocked at centre half (arguably 5 options including Djiksteel as emergency cover) so I'd expect someone to leave if he comes in.

Might it be that Fry is off in the Summer if we're not up by then?

I wonder if he would take Paddy/Bola's place in the squad? One of them might be off, or Clarke's injury is going to keep him out long-term?

Not always the full story though is it? Jones can't get a game for us but we'd expect millions for him.

he's only 20, bags of potential, to be able to hold your own at CB in the Championship is quite something. Plus he's a kid on loan at Millwall, so always likely to be backup especially when they have old warhorses like Hutchinson and Cooper available.

Yeah
 
I've been saying recently that he's had a poor season so far at Millwall, and not getting in their team, but having thought about it he was already highly rated before this season and sometimes especially with youngsters, the first loan doesn't work out as planned. Look at Balogun for us, Delap at Stoke this season, for example.

I wouldn't be adverse to us looking to pick him up on a decent fee rather than splurging a big percentage of whatever our transfer budget is.

Let's face it, he's not going to get a kick for Leeds with them struggling to stay in the Premier League as they won't chuck a young lad in the deep end. Maybe they'll be willing to cash in while his stock is still high, no doubt they'd get a decent sell on clause for any deal.

Saw some of the highlights. 'Bullying' bordering on over the top with some if his elbows!

I think its encouragaing that we reportedly looked to sign him in January, even when he wasn't getting his game a Millwall and when he did play he was very much up and down.

Is that Richard who used to play for York in the mid-90s? If so, I used to see him play occasionally when I was a student there.

Don't know much about the son, but was he not in the "best English championship 11" article circulated on here last week?

yep Richard Cresswell ... his wife Zoe has a red handled bread knife as well...
