    Again, what is the relevance of a "record transfer fee" to Jarrad Branthwaite? Or a release clause for a Huijsen? Two totally unrelated points to a player that is not for sale and should be signing an extension soon.

    Talk out of FF that a loan to Roma might be in the offing. Option to buy too.

    Indeed. Saying “ passing accuracy % is low” without watching him is pretty pointless. One of the things I liked about Armstrong at Derby was his willingness to drop back into a position to receive a pass from a teamwork who was being closed...

    Is this the fat chap?
  • B
    Yes he’s turned into Ruud Gullit over night
  • B
    But he’s not playing in a 3 if we have a number 10, that’s not going to work and he’s not good enough to play Rigjt wing , I think he’s not good enough for where we want to go, left him go to Burnley or Leeds. I get we need a squad, but he will...

    It’s not his age im bothered about, it’s the fact he’s spent virtually his whole career in the lower leagues He’s been playing left wing for Sheffield Utd, I doubt very much he’d be able to cope in centre mid in the premier league, he’s not...

    Hamer would start for us in my opinion. People massively overrate our midfield. It’s not very good. Garner is an average player, Doucoure wasn’t very good. Iroegbunam is very young, Armstrong has potentially but is unproven. Alcaraz shows...

    None of which were 28, though. How much improvement can be made at the age of 28?
  • B
    1) jags 24, Cahill 24, lescott 23, baines 22. They weren’t 28 2) at that time we didn’t have a lot of money, so had to take a few cheap gambles, we may have to this summer, but I expect us to have money to buy 3/4 starters . The gambles , squad...

    Exactly. It's one thing to be a "stepping-stone" club, but it's quite another when that stepping stone is downwards. Avoid like the plague!
  • B
    Ask yourself why he’s spent all his career in the lower leagues? Bar one season and he’s 28. Not had a sniff of a Dutch cap, Klassen has 40, van de beek has 20. Hamer is nowhere good enough for where we want to go, if we’re just looking to finish...

    Well that was obvious, We can probably do 3x 30mil transfers Also we were very close to getting Gibbs white. But at the time wolves kept saying not for sale and by the time he was later in the window we’d moved on

    Nice for us too, he's got at least 3 years left on his contract.

    Stones put in a transfer request and didn’t go, not set in stone he goes if he wants to, it will just be a decision for the club knowing he won’t sign a new deal and do they gamble and wait another season
