Saint Domingo's latest activity

The whole point of my post is I don’t think we do play a 10 next season, or rather we shouldn’t. Ndiaye wants to come into that position too much, McNeil does from the other side too, so there’s zero point in also having a dedicated number 10...

I'm near certain the 2 years was just what was in the pre-agreed triggering clause. Could be a few reasons but one might be we didn't really fancy him, but we were forced to play him because of injuries elsewhere, and didn't want to be stuck...

I think he could play in a midfield three. If Ndiaye is a nailed on starter from the left win then he is going to be floating inwards into that ten position (like Pienaar did). It would make sense then to have some pace on the right to come in...

When the club made the loan signing they probably considered it a 3 year deal with the intention to always pull the trigger, was probably agreed with the player and agent too back in Jan

Seems pretty clear. People are making the mistake of thinking we are the only one who decides what the deal is too

Weird that everyone’s assuming the 2 year deal is something the club has instigated rather than the player. He’s 22 and we’re his 5th club, maybe he and his agent want him to keep moving.

We don’t know what Thelwell agreed in January. Maybe one of Everton or Alcaraz didn’t want to have five years in an option attached to the loan so they brokered 2. Therefore the deal is he has his loan and if you trigger the option it’s this...

Or maybe after 2 years Roma have first option, being the flagship club within The Friedkin Group. [This is a joke. Repeat, this is a joke.]

Triggered the option sounds like the deal at that price was already pre agreed, hence maybe why it’s only two years.

Maybe that’s what was in the option Thelwell negotiated, hence the wording from the club. If we reopened the deal perhaps it would have invited competition from other clubs. Maybe it was take it or leave it.

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...

So did Cahill when we bought him and Lescott. Jagielka and Baines had played for very poor PL sides that had gone down same as Hamer. Vardy hadn’t played at any decent level before joining Leicester. Players can improve. I’m only going on what...

I mentioned him before at Coventry mate I always thought he was someone who could step up to be at an effective PL level. I’m sure not many watched him last year for Sheff Utd, he was very good he’s a real little battler - like Cahill a terrier...

I’m actually coming round to the Hamer deal if we could make it work for a decent price. Moyes would have him fully fit absolutely no question. He’s got pace, and technique. I think he’d link well with Ndiaye and Alcaraz, could be an exciting...

Need to target players that actually want to come here and play for us. That’s why I’m always more keen on the club going for a player from the championship who wants to step up than trying to tempt someone from United or City with massive money...
