    Is Collins ready to take over from Tarks ?

    Every week Tarkowski is getting more and more linked with a move to the likes of West Ham and Leicester. Lately he’s also been linked with Newcastle,aswell. It seems to me that SD has been easing him in to the team ,to get ready for the day when he will eventually occupy the number 5 shirt. He looked ok when he was at the Brittania Stadium, and from what i’ve Seen so far ,of his move to Turf Moor, he’s getting better as time goes on. Of course, there is no stone wall guarantee that Tarks will be going anywhere, and I hope he does see out the rest of his career in a Claret and Blue shirt. But if he doesn’t, Will Collins be ready to take over. I’d like to think he will.

    Looks like classic Dave Baldwin machinations to me.

    IF we can get north of £10 million for Tarkowski in January, bring this kid in from the Cod Army and send Bobby Thomas the other way, I think Mee and Collins can keep us up.

    I think he’s do a job Mal tbh , though the next few fixtures could really decide our fate and I think that might force our hand with Tarky if it doesn’t go our way.
    He looks a very accomplished footballer when he plays , Guardiola singled him out in the Man City game and that says a lot about this young man.

    Tarko stepped in when Keane left and we never knew the difference, I am sure Collins will step in when Tarko leaves, and once again we will never know the difference. I like Tarko, I always have, I said when Keane left that Everton had signed the wrong one, but he can go for me, Collins will slot in seamlessly.

    Absolutely spot on my mate. It must be Christmas, I'm agreeing with you too much at present!

    Defensively we managed OK last night, just unfortunate with the rebound that put traore clear.

    I'm sure we'll find something to fall out about soon BT. I bloody hope so anyway, all this agreeing with each other is tedious, we need one of Mrs Merton's heated debates again, and soon.
