Don't think Rudi would want to go to Newcastle - considering how limited his minutes would be. He'll know a full season of development under Lampard will give him a better chance of a proper Prem career The only 3 teams who could afford him & he'd get minutes at are Palace, Leeds, and Burnley I...

I'd definitely go for a GK loan for the season All loans have a Jan recall clause inserted anyway so if Dovin manages to get his place back by then it will be cut short anyway If he's not ready in Jan then when he's ready he can compete to be no.1 again. If he does, happy days More likely...

Depends what you're basing it on really The atmosphere generated is one of the best in the league no question That doesn't take away from the fact that the ground is far away with shit connections (also impossible to get out of after the game), is a very generic stadium in style, and has an...

Tbf the first two last summer were Browne/Stamenic and we then didn’t sign a CM so not getting my hopes up 😂

I’d be surprised as I think it will be one and Dasilva as back up but wouldnt hate it either Despite Dasilva’s end of season form he was still caught out by an over the top ball against Hull & Luton causing us to drop points

Think it is down to coaching/medical team as to whether they think he can reach previous standards with a rest and pre-season. He's had a stop/start season but we're talking about one of the best midfielders in the championship the 2 seasons prior to that If you're confident you can pick up...

People forget how quickly you can develop at Bassette's age and need to give him a chance. Callum Wilson looked shite at the end of his first season albeit mainly in cameos. Came back the next season as the best striker in the league

Do you have any idea if there is actually interest in Sheaf? Not sure where the market is for him after the season he's had

Love MvE but selling him at optimal value & signing KKH is great business banking 5m+ in the process Can understand the interest in Toffollo - he has a great delivery on him, wages will surely be an issue Surprised if we're in for both him & Brau. We're either confident we can move on both JDS...

No way we don’t also get at least one winger with Pato going and no Saka cover

Bet he’s regretting it ~500 minutes will stunt his development at 23 whereas he would’ve surely been a starter here

Everyone (myself included) scoffed at Ipswich being 3rd favourites in 23/24 There must be something in the data for them to be priced that highly Unfortunately I do think they’ll be pushing top 6

Isn’t he trying to be a podcaster? Probably thinking he can get an American fan base by becoming a part of the tv show Ben Foster did something similar

Why I'm not worried about losing Wright/MvE - if anything this summer is the optimal time to sell with 2 years left (neither will sign a new contract unless we're promoted) Next season we'll likely be forced to sell for less

Our second XI when everyone is fit: Wilson Burroughs Lati Binks Bidwell Allen Eccles Torp BTA Simms Rafa Way better than 3 years ago but still has a long way to go - the defence & wingers certainly need work

If we’re going to continue to put a high number of crosses into the box - there is a real argument for moving on Wright for 12-15m and getting Salech for 6-8m Watching his goals for Cardiff he is so good in the air & not sure Wright fits Lampards system I have no doubt Wright is a better...

Any chance of Mike Penders for GK loan? 6”5 19 year old GK Chelsea signed from Genk and loaned back for the season Looks like he did alright and they think he could be no. 1 in the future

On a podcast I was listening to Ian Graham (Liverpool Head of Data under Klopp) said the best way to build a squad is to integrate 3 first team players per season (you can sign more players but only 3 should play over 2000 minutes in their first full season) Players are able to develop an...

Has there been any chat about how Lampard feels about recruitment and his involvement in the process? Reading between the lines Robins was happy with scout-led signings but had a few of his own picks too (Kitch, BTA, Binks, Rudoni) Wonder if we’ll see something similar this summer

It’s a weird one as obviously Thomas is our best CB, a goal threat, and is young so could continue to improve… but everyone (myself included) wants an experienced CB in there If we signed Joe Worrall for example - it will have to be Thomas dropping out
