Do you know for definite, Pooch, that we have the option of a second year - or is that just a rumour?
That would certainly improve things. I`m not sure it would change things greatly in the long term but, as you say, it would mean we could still get a fee for him in the summer - or a bigger one in January (which I personally still think is the more likely; we do have form in that respect). You`re right that he will certainly get better as he becomes more match-sharp but the jury is still out (excuse the pun) on whether he is Premiership quality. That`s a hell of a leap. I thought Sam Morsy was more than good enough for the Championship but that doesn`t seem to have worked out.
Mind you, I didn`t really Sam Clucas as a Premiership player but Hull seem to think he is. H`s just signed a 3 year contract, apparently.
