Is Peltier any good?

Warnock openly says on the Leeds Website that Peltier is a target...not sure when we started throwing other teams players names about to unsettle?!

But i dont really remember seeing him play...is he really the RB we need? Attacking? Pacey? Can he defend?

I remember Paul Connelly looking solid 1st game back in the Championship Vs Derby at ER...then saw him midweek in the League Cup and thought my nanan could have done better.

Will the ER curse affect any of the current 9 signings as it has many other before them?

It will never be the case that every player who joins any club [and whether previously a 'good' player or not] will be a success.

There are plenty of examples - and high profile ones at that - of players who 'fail' on moving clubs. There are also many examples of players who seem to blossom and improve under new leadership and in a different environment.

So we shall see is the only logical response to your question.

Whether any but one or two clubs could afford a defender who has pace, can attack and defend with equal aplomb I doubt. So whatever he is he will be a compromise.

I read a lot saying he is good going forward but not amazing defending.

We knew he was a target last week when we heard Leeds had submitted a written bid.

I like what Warnock is saying here, he's basically letting Peltier know that he's looking at others and to make his mind up quick.

Yeah Jonty thats how i read it as well mate. Must be a Warnock thing as Grayson/Bates were so tight lipped it was unsetteling at times!

Orange, i know very few players (especially at this level) have all 3 qualities but if you can get a player who has 2 of the 3 (preferably Pace & Defending) i just wondered if he was actually a decent player as i dont recall seeing him play...or if i have he didnt stand out?! Do Leicester & Hudders fans rate him?

I really like the fact that Warnock isn't scared to take about targets in the press. It lets the fans know which rumours are actually true.

I have watched Town a few times and thought he was a good right backand I think he will be coming to us ahead of Town as they have a very exciting proposition in young Jack . I also think that McCormack will be the next to leave possibly in the next few days Town could be his destination

Mate is a Fester supporter and he rates him. Ok at defending but great at attacking.

Peltier isn't a bad player, just not as good as he thinks he is.

To be honest, we got the best out of him in central midfield. If I had money to spend on a right back for a championship club, Peltier would be well down my list. However, he proved to be very versatile whilst with us so would be a decent squad player for you.

apparently town have pulled out of the bidding due to fox,s wanting 850k for him!
he,s a good player who will do well for you at rb......glad he isnt returning to us cos we have jack hunt who is a cracking young talent....and cos he sheite on us too!

I think he's alright. I'm not sure why we are selling him because I'd be happy with him playing next season. He can get caught out sometimes but then who doesn't. I did see some really good tackles and chasing back last season.
