Very pleased if we get the Yokuslu deal over the line.

As regards O’Shea, I wasn’t aware there was an issue with him signing a new contract. However, even if that is the case, I feel it would be a real retrograde step not to move heaven and earth to get him to sign.

For me, him and TGH have been the new shining lights in the last couple of seasons, so I feel that to lose one of them would be a poor indictment on the club. I take Slick’s point about his form after return from injury but that was a very long lay off so I wasn’t overly surprised that his form dipped. Bruce also had a propensity to play him at full back to accommodate Clarke and Bartley and, for me, this is not his position; I think he has the potential to be an outstanding central defender, way better than the other two.

So, I’m hoping this talk of a move is just that, talk. If we decide to let him go in order to sign Clarke then I think Bruce needs his head examined
