Jason Knight

Completely depends who they get in.

One could argue Burnley would have been a terrible move even if Dyche was kept on and they managed to avoid relegation.

While I can appreciate that he had them punching well above their weight for a very long time, from an Ireland perspective I wouldn't want anyone with an ounce of creativity going to the club.

Goalkeepers, defenders, defensive midfielders and big lump target men are all absolutely grand under him. If anything they flourish.

But anyone else that likes to get on the ball and make things happen he would suck the life out of them.

Jeff Hendrick was an almost identical player to Knight before he moved there, was a similar age and even moved from the same club. He was a cracking player for us and Derby until 2016. Then he had Dyche coach the creativity out of his play, never letting him take a run with the ball or take any risks with his passing. Everything was sides ways and backwards from then on. Often played him out of position on the wings too. Looked completely shot of confidence in his ability the last 5 or 6 years between working under Dyche, O'Neill and McCarthy all of much the same ilk of manager.

While his club form has still been very hit and miss this season, more miss than hit admittedly, he has looked a new man under Kenny from Sept window on wards. Like hes got a bit of that confidence back and allowed the freedom he once had at Derby to try get on the ball, to try make things happen, to try pick a pass.

I really wouldnt like to see the same happen to Knight under a manager like Dyche or club like Burnley.

I think clubs like Palace under Viera or Brighton under Potter would be better fits.

Leeds don't have much in the way of depth and I do reckon game time would be come by a lot easier because of this. 

I'd love him at Wolves think Bruno Lage could really develop him but we don't really sign players from the championship. I think our owners see market as overpriced.

Nottingham Forest potentially as Brennan Johnson's replacement would be another good shout. Swansea an outside shout for a side who could make a promotion run next season who also play good football! 

He could also go the same way as Ebosele too (continental Europe). Loads of options for the lad once it's a footballing side I think he will shine.

Leeds fan here and we can def do with both. Not sure who one of the centre backs is you are referring to maybe Kenneh but the other is Charlie Cresswell who is classy enough but Collins is much further along than any young centre half we have. The radar Knight was on was Victor Orta who loves him. We have signed one midfielder in 4 years. I would be shocked if we don't buy at least 2 of each in the summer. There is also talk of Koch leaving and Cooper is getting alot of praise right now and is captain but he is not a PL defender and is 31. He is a solid championship defender. 

I am not saying they will sign either Knight or Collins just that I would love us to sign them.
