Auston Trusty

I think the problem is Scales will likely be on a Ralston-esq back up player wage in the squad whereas Trusty will likely be on decent money.

Therefore, knowing how we work if either was to go it’s more likely going to be Trusty.

 

Scales is an easier sell for the above reason. Also easier to turn a profit as we’re not out to recoup the same outlay.

 

He was Kool as a cucumber in Europe it’s a head scratcher only thing a can think of like a said before is the refs letting centre forwards away with murder
Also can’t be good that he has a manager that willing to drop a player for scales as soon as a mistake is made

Wouldn't write him off just yet. He came to us off the back of a brutal season with Sheffield United. Had some great games, including in the CL, and some poor games. Must know what he needs to work on this preseason: strength and aggression.

Think he'll be an important player for us in the CL qualifiers. It would be very risky to go into them with only Scales and CCV as our fit recognised first team CBs. Even new signings are a risky in those games. Would rather have 3 CBs that are used to each other - there's always a worry 1 gets injured.

Then let's see how he does when the real games starts. Can always punt in winter or next year if need be.

 

It was a large number of mistakes before he called Scales back in wasn’t at the drop of a hat.

He has a lot of really good attributes to him, it’s up to him to put that altogether on a consistent basis. He needs a shift in his mentality and to want to impose himself more than anything, he does have everything you’d be wanting in a centre back. He’s not going to have long to show that he knows how to use it before being sidelined this season though, if we do recruit as we mostly all expect at CB
