Yup exactly this.
Most of these players they are buying have zero sell on value too. If it gos wrong they are fucked.
Giving Windass and Coady long contracts in their 30s. Keifer Moore etc if it happens. Think bottom half of the league for me.
Its also fair to say the club was already doing the best it has done in the years leading up to his takeover. Was already on a upward trajectory under Mark Robins.
Not denying its continued upward trajectory since his take over too.
Ypu woukd think there woukd a queue of clubs wanting him at top end of championship. Havnt really seen this Lampard factor. Lets see of he can do something/anything.
Fuck me we have had some chances last 5 mins..Mason ckarke always the wrong option.
Kitching having a mare.
We gone from worst keeper in the league to the BEST. Said it now
Assuming we go with our best X1 as it stands. Whos 100% fit and or not subject to transfer rumour.
Rushworth
HKK ,Thomas, Kitching, Brau
Grimes
Sheaf
Sakamoto, Rudoni, EMC
Simms
Would it not be stupidity to come back to a club on loan after you was there 2/3 seasons ago. Albeit we are slightly higher profile now.
So can only see a move if its obligation to buy if promoted.
He was a monster of a centre back few seasons ago. If hes 80% of the player he was he can do a job for 1 season. But again if we are desperate. Good experienced head.
100% its about developing him. And if he feels at home for a year and is developing and getting more game time at home then this makes sense.
I cant see Bassete getting anywhere near our starting X1 at the moment. Unless Lampard decides to go for a front 2.
The greatest centre backs of all time havnt been quick. Bullshit you need to be quick to be a great centre back.
Doyles ball down the line to Gyokores for the quick break leading to Hamer goal at Wembley. Was a goal of beauty.
The lad oozes class. If we can get him for around £6m that wpukd be...
