Shows how much attention I pay to this competition, I hadn't realised it was regionalised.

Sheffield Wednesday. 🤞

For how much? For £20 - £25 million + add ons, yes. The club won't be able to refuse that type of offer. For five quid, a pickled egg, and vouchers for a free perm, no. ETA: saw the caveats: yes.

It would never have been the intention to sell Rudoni after a single season. I doubt there is any desire or requirement to sell him at the moment, therefore, it would take silly money to get him. The model might revolve around selling players for a profit, but it will always be selling them on...

He might not be, but if we were to sell him, it would have to be for a greatly inflated fee. That's the point. You don't sell at true value when you aren't looking to sell.

Speculation, obviously, but there's nothing to suggest he's 'done' anything. There's no reason to think it's anything more than not showing the requisite attitude to training or not responding in the correct way to not being selected. They probably just think he's not trying hard enough / is...

Yes, but with another good season, then you get bigger fish coming in next summer. Move now, and it's more difficult for those bigger fish to get you. Neither would big enough steps up to be worthwhile for a player that seriously backs themselves, imo.

It would actually surprise me if Rudoni or Hughes actually agreed to move to Southampton / us. It would be a small step up, but would make it much harder for larger clubs to sign them in the near future. I don't think either move would necessarily be in the players' best long-term interests.

This.

We would have done if one would have met our asking price.

If the right offer comes in, then any of our players are for sale. The club isn't going to want to risk another Sheaf situation. However, you'd think to get Rudoni it would have to be a fairly preposterous fee.

And I don't care how good Brau is, I'm calling him Irn.

Raphael was good. He runs with the ball really fluidly and looks like he can ghost past men well. Good balance. How he'd look against better teams remains to be seen. Promising, though. Feel a bit for Simms. He did some good things, but those chances were laid on a plate.

Yay, I think?

Turgid. Andrews had a good start but then went off the boil a bit; Raphael looks good moving with the ball but doesn't look like he quite knows when to release it. I like Allen, but this isn't his role, he's pointless deep in midfield. Oh, and Thomas has been awful.

This is very poor. Allen playing that Grimes role is entirely pointless.

Enobakhare. We had to sack him.

Name the fuckers or stfu.

He looked very good in a couple of his early performances, but the prolonged run in the side he had either wasn't advisable based on where he is in his development, or found him out. I'm not sure which, tbh, but I think it's very likely Lampard thinks its the latter.

Great finish.
