It would be stupidity to let Bruno go now. A pool of Baath, Lindsay and Collins for the season would be downright irresponsible management. Souttar (If all parties agreed)? Wimmer (Reluctantly)? Free transfer (Williams for example)? There are options, but surely the opportunity to get rid of BMI given the contract he is on, cannot be missed?

We'd be bonkers to let BMI go now.

I'd happily get rid of both. I think a veteran on a last contract, on something like a pay as you play deal would be ideal. We still have no idea how long Ryan is out for either, do we? BMI staying is expensive and it means he is likely to feature before Collins which is just wrong.

Jones certainly not ruling out BMI going on Radio Stoke.
Pretty clear he wants 2 right-siders and 2 left-footers as well.
Pretty much confirmed we're after a new centre-half

Yes, we're stuck with Wimmer, but why pay the extra money to push him out as 5th choice anyway?

It sounds a certainty that we'll sign another cb and Bruno will be gone.

If it's impossible to offload and we need a 4th choice anybody should be allowed to show some common sense. Wimmer is Austrian so I'd be very surprised if he won't train properly. Most Germans and Austrians are very professional in everything they do.

Didn’t realise he was right footed. www.transfermarkt.co.uk/matthew-pennington/profil/spieler/220755Yeah - this suggests he is, and looks to have played quite a bit at RB too. So bit strange we were apparently in for him if he made such a point of wanting 2 right and 2 left - with Shawcross, Batth and Collins already here. So suppose we're looking at young Premier left-sided centre-hales potentially available on 6-month loans?

Left side centre half doesn't necessarily mean the player is left footed. John Terry being the most famous example.

It never even crossed my mind that it was a 'thing' until a few years ago. I just thought a centre-half was a centre-half!

We haven't spent big all summer and we aren't going to replace our captain for 6 months with a 5-10M signing are we? Imagine the wrist wringing on here if we used this 'opportunity' to replace Ryan and at the same time push Collins further down the pecking order? It will be a short term loan until Christmas with either an option to buy, option to return or option to extend the loan.

Bring wimmer back in as 4th choice cover and spend the wages on Gayle not another centre half.

I agree we have to replace Ryan, but anyone thinking that BMI and/or Wimmer are "in the pool" of players that could be used are just kidding themselves. They are already gone, Stoke just haven't found a suitable "home" for them yet. I'd be absolutely amazed if either of them pull on a Stoke shirt again.
