1. I was comparing similar positions. Of CM's only Hamer played more. Even he had a spell out of the team - do the "football brains" not rate him either? 2. Because Sheaf was injured 3. In your opinion. Sheaf also missed games injured. 4. No, Walker & Godden got injured. 5. No he wasn't, he...

Eh? He played 2nd most minutes of any Midfielder?

Right?

Because he's 20 & they have Adam Davies who is also a very good goalkeeper. He'll likely be challenging him next season.

Bursik is already miles better than what we have & will be a Premier League & England goalkeeper in a few years.

Better than what we have? Heaton, Walton, Ruddy Realistic? Walton

Not really, teams don't often release good keepers, hence why Christian Walton is so sought after. I'd like to avoid a loanee keeper but might be only way.

No chance they'll sell. If they did it would be to a Premier League team for 8 figures.

Excellent young keeper. I'd personally prefer a permanent signing in that position but certainly wouldn't be adverse to it. Not sure if Stoke would loan to a rival?

That's literally Pickford's strength? He's streets ahead of all the other England keepers in that area.

He's never been voted in a Team of the Year by his peers.

Exactly this. I just started a new thread on partnerships/networking before I'd seen this but this is absolutely what a lot of clubs will be looking to do now. The Dike deal was an inspired coup by Barnsley, he literally only qualified for a work permit earlier that same day by representing...

It seems like PL clubs at least are slowly grasping the importance of these kind of deals. Surely can't be long before it filters down into the Championship too. I don't necessarily mean like Barnsley's pound shop Red Bull model, but with the Brexit moves shifting recruitment emphasis, having...

Indeed they do & Sunderland only have a mid-table home record. Wonder if their fans will be backing them or if it will be pretty toxic as is often the case. Even if they do somehow turn it around I can't see them beating Blackpool anyway, vastly superior team.

Incredible story;

How clueless & out of touch are Spurs' owners? Charged £60 a ticket last night & sat them here...

No, it's voted by an independent, EFL appointed panel around February/March time ridiculously I believe (when Sunderland were flying & keeping loads of clean sheets). Agree though he's an average, lower end L1 goalkeeper, should never be first choice in a top 6 side - especially one with...

When you spend more than most of the league combined you'd expect them to be better than just scraping the playoffs though tbf. They genuinely have a few players that really aren't up to top L1 level (Power, Scowen, the inferior McFadz & both keepers).

Yeah I have mate, binged through it in a couple of evenings as soon as it released, was really good. 😁 Yeah, interesting that the Lakers had to go via the new 'Play In' but with a fit again LeBron they'll always be in with a chance. And yes I appreciate your post was before their victory last...

I love it but never seem to find time to watch it all nowadays. Doesn't help that my team (Magic) have been awful for years. Finished this season with 3rd worst record & have a massive rebuild job to do. Was mad on it in the 90s (showing my age!) with the likes of Jordan & Pippen, Stockton &...
