Quote The Dentist Wilf="The Dentist Wilf"Well it looks like we will have it confirmed that Motu and Co have done everything right and that we have our man, some may not 'see the point' of such a signing and I get that but for me its all about having as much depth in the backs as we have in the forwards. He is one of the best young prospects in the game and Huddersfield offered him the best contract they have ever offered anyone his age. Radford's judgement on young talent has been good thus far and we have to trust him. We are likely to lose both our young halfbacks and have little genuine cover at full back a position he plays very well. I'd like to think he came to the Derby looked round and said, "This is for me"'"
Losing genuine young talented half backs including HTW if the rumours are true due to an inflexible wage structure seems ludicrous when we are obviously paying Connor an above average wage based on what Huddersfield are reporting that they offered him the best contract ever to a player of his age.
I would much rather have a young specialist half back coming through to the senior ranks than another utility player fitting in when necessary who although is only two years older is probably earning treble the salary.
