Hide AdBlackpool boss on transfer speculation
Blackpool boss Michael Appleton doesn’t think Jerry Yates will be affected by transfer speculation. The attacker has been linked with a few clubs including West Brom and Watford recently after his impressive start to the season. His manager has said, as per a report by Lancashire Live: “I don’t see Jerry being the deep-thinking type or worrying too much about things, he’s so larger than life and so jovial when he’s around people. I don’t see him going away and thinking too hard and worrying too much about situations, I think he just loves playing football.
“I think that’s how he plays the game, he just loves it and you can see how much it means to him when he scores, when the team win, when the other players in the team score he’s always the loudest and the first to the man who scored the goal.”
