Give Lewis Dunk his chance or bring someone in?

I can see Dunk taking the step up and Max becoming a backup option - his stint on loan at Kilmarnock, whilst not the greatest level of football (but not the worst) will have given him some experience and game time...I can see him being gently eased into the squad, much like Solly was this season.

Dunk needs to develop alongside an experienced centre half who can coach/talk him through games. This should have been Upson but Greer does seem capable of this role, as he did not appear to either Dunk or Elphick before his injury. Our conveyor belt of local centre halves have generally had the 'old head' to assist them: Butters, Morgan, Cullip,etc, as far back as Cross and Burnett.

We need 3 decent centrebacks and a 4th man from the development squad to cover

Think he's a good young defender only concern is some of his decisions in high pressure matches; maybe that can only come with experience!

Dunk is class.

Will be huge for us next season.

Upson going could end up being a blessing in disguise.
Lewis would surely have been looking elsewhere if he had to sit on the bench for another year.

This is Dunk's chance to establish himself as a first team regular.

Upson made a bizarre decision againts Derby and gave away a pen for no reason. I wonder also if Adam is regretting his decision now?

See the budget see players available and if we can get an overall better squad if we give him a chance and use money elsewhere do that if not get someone in.

LD should start in CB position from day 1. He is our most accomplished player (and has been). He is another Mark Lawrenson in the making.
