Baker at 6 it is then. Definitely a different list to earlier. Yep, I saw O'Neil as 6 too....went back to check too, in case it was someone having a laugh with last season's being retweeted. Definitely amended. Welcome Bakes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But doesn't Nathan Baker have some sort of persistent back problem? He had his moments in a pretty poor season and when he played well- he was class but seemingly let down by a certain lack of enthusiasm/disconnect combined with the fact that he looked like he could get sent off at any moment in an El Abd type way. Was it Baker who was sent off and a number of posters on here felt it was deliberate cos he didn't want to play? Or was that just Thatch? No , it wasn't just our resident boo boy .

Kibs Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 But surely, given that he has played under LJ before, LJ's lack of pulling power/appeal and how much players hate playing for him etc etc BS BS BS etc etc, there is no way Nathan Baker, a proven Championship performer, who's own clubs supporters seem genuinely gutted to see him leave, would want to sign for us!!!! It can't be true!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristol_South_End Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 Random/slightly interesting statistic, once LJ took over in 2016 Baker didn't pick up one yellow card. Maybe LJ helped him play with more discipline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robin_unreliant Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 Does anyone else feel annoyed about what this would mean for Magnússon's chances? I was hoping he would get back in the side but seems unlikely if we sign Baker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chipdawg Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 2 hours ago, Moor2Sea said: I get that. Disappointed if that were so, but he's earned it and we, seemingly, have done little to encourage him to stay. What we should be doing is looking at an upgrade. Don't think we will achieve that. Baker is injury prone and is a booking waiting to happen. Maybe the plan is to bring on Maggs or Taylor Moore, knowing that Baker will have no where near Flint's appearances. Step backwards in my view, which is worrying given we have no idea if the new left back or centre forward foreign imports will match or exceed Little or Tammy. So given the 'spine' at the start of last season, Flinty, Tomlin, Kodjia/Tammy - none are left. Suppose it all comes down now to trust in LJ/MA. I genuinely hope they've got it right, really do. Yeah, I would personally like to see the existing players given a chance. Keep the 'pathway' open and all that. However, it's not unreasonable to want to replace Flint with a similarly physical, tall player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eastside Moonwalker Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 Didn't even realise we were in for him.. Would love a back four of Mags, Baker, Wright and Pisano.

Nibor Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 Good signing, welcome back! I hope Flint's staying too but if we're made a silly offer we've still got a good complement there. Perhaps Magnússon could have a run at left back. I think he's got a good future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
