Plausible but seems unlikely they would let his contract run down that low.

Yeah, doesn't make sense. Although it was only the Telegraph saying it would be a loan & we all know their record of accuracy.

They will also be paying all last season's contracts up until end of July unless the players in question have found themselves a new club already.

Tom Hamer at Burton would be the one. Right footed but plays both wingback roles pretty comfortably & has even played CB before too. Would be ideal if Kane were to move on. He's out of contract & been linked with the likes of Burnley but do wonder how much there is in that. Would require a...

Ha ha, not intended to be. The potential upside is massive but some concerns is all. Might be better options.

Unconvinced mate tbh... I know he's had problems with injuries but thought he'd have got a few more minutes at least. He's a very talented boy but I do have a few concerns re: physicality & temperament. Wouldn't be against it as there is huge potential there but would need to ensure we've done...

How dare he... Get him gone.

He's been a regular wing-back for years and (although it's a very flawed metric) he had the most assists of anyone in that position the previous season so gets into good attacking positions & has excellent delivery. This notion that he can't play the role is daft.

That would be the only question mark for me, he could walk into any team in the league imo. Kompany has previously been a pretty rigid 4-4-2 man which wouldn't suit him at all. Think he needs to adapt to get the best out of players like McNeil anyway though so think he'll be pragmatic.

More very smart recruitment by Palace, they've done a great job of signing top EFL talent last couple of seasons.

I can't see he'll have any problems, very gifted player.

Don't do drugs kids...

The same Tory donor who paid for his flat refurb. The fact that said same donor's companies have won £120 million worth of government contracts is pure coincidence I'm sure.

I don't think that's what he's saying, he means spend a similar fee as the one it took to sign Hamer, e.g. £1m+, accepting a large portion will be swallowed up elsewhere.

As you say, inevitable & provided we get a decent fee it's a good deal for all parties.

He'll never admit it but I bet MR would quite like to move Hamer on sooner rather than later.

Yes, given that it was Boro then too & they ended up giving Assombalonga away for free I'm pretty sure they won't be risking similar again! Think Rhodes was about £8m a decade ago. Largest Championship to Championship deal in last few seasons was Harry Arter from Bournemouth to Forest for...

Yes, sorry - not brilliantly worded. I meant a team that should qualify & hope to even compete to win Champions Leagues.

It's happened once ever & that was 5 years ago to a relegated club with parachute payments. Fees are going down in the Championship not up.
