[Albion] Which of our former players would you welcome back with open arms into this current squad?

[Greg Bobkin]

The only one I’d have is Colwill. The rest chose to go and take the money from the big boys and when you’re gone then you’re gone. Colwill wanted to stay here but Chelsea weren’t having it and he remains respectful to us.

Did he, through? Really?

Because, in the end, he just ended up taking 'the money from the big boys' too.

Short career you can’t blame them, wasn’t that long ago a young 19 year old Walcott was the discussion when Sven took him to a World Cup he’s now retired.

My thought was Kit Napier. A RDZ player years before his time.

Not that long ago? Well, 15 years! And he's had years of PL wages, so he hasn't exactly lost out.

 

[Fred Oliver - Legend]

Sanchez and immediately back into the first team.

 

[WhingForPresident]

Bissouma, Mac, Colwill, Gyokeres. The rest can piss off.

I think he did, in the end as Chelsea refused to sell him, he never really had many other options that didn’t jeopardise his career. Refusing to sign a contract can see you bombed out of the squad in many clubs.

 

[Littlemo]

Agreed. So what did Biss, White and Ale Mac do to not be welcomed back in your view ?

It’s not that they did anything, they left on great terms. I just think that when players choose to move on to other teams then that’s them gone and I prefer not to go back.

I prefer to look forward to the new players coming into the team and it’s been great seeing the younger players getting game time and succeeding. Create new favourite players, rather than bringing back old ones.

 

[Questions]

All of them except Cucurella, Sanchez and Burn and not because I don't like Burn, I just think we've moved beyond him as a player now.

A midfield three of Bissouma, Caicedo and Mac Allister is a wet dream for me! I'd also have Colwill in at CB and White in at RB. Gyokores and Trossard would be good rotation options further forward.

That would allow Mac to play much further forward. A dream that midfield but where would Gross play ?

Anywhere he wants.
