Is anyone else slightly nervous about going down this route again of trying to get a 28 year-old plus player and giving up
high picks, to try and plug an immediate hole vs. developing Blanck and other recent recruits instead?
Yes we do need urgently a tall key back but a 28 year old? Aim for a fresher/younger recruit for KPD instead even if takes longer for success?
There is always going to be a risk involved, but I would say the major difference now is we have a good base of young players that have demonstrated the they have long careers ahead. It wasn't the same last time around.
