letsalldothebeattie Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 Will be interesting to see where he figures into things going forward. Clearly not fit yet Levein rates Hickey very highly and only Burns the other option at LB. Never seen White play but I’d rather we stuck our faith in the younger lads now. Give Hickey the chance. Have Berra guide him through games the boy will learn more that way than playing reserve games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CloustonHMFC Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 He is a signing for next season, Levein knows it’ll take time which is why it was finalised before the end of the season so he has longer to get up to scratch before a full blown pre-season. He was never going to feature this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indianajones Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 Some of the decisions at our club are genuinely mental. I hope this works out and we get a class player from it but I'm kind of sick of being the 'daycare' club to take in 'second chance' footballers.

Lord Beni of Gorgie Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 White was originally very well thought of Leeds, as a left back then into a more modern wing back, before really losing his way a bit, becoming a bit of square peg in a round hole. If he got back to his formative days, he could be very useful for us, but that is a big if. Would do well to keep him out of the spotlight until he has had plenty of game time, preseason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jammy T Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 I’m sure his wage is weighted accordingly. We are potentially saving his career. That is worth something to a player who wants his career saved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Injuries have stalled his career, but if, as is reported, these injury problems are behind him now, we have potentially signed a very good player for a relatively modest outlay.
