He's not even that much more experienced than Kitching, in terms of appearances anyway. And our defensive record wasn't even that bad - half the teams above us conceded more.

If Worrall comes in he's going to be starting surely. I'd rather see us just stick with Thomas. He won't come cheap and especially if it's a loan we'd be better off developing our own players imo.

Why do we need him though?

The way that ffp incentivises the sale of homegrown players is ridiculous and disgusting.

Did we though? Stamenic seems like an obvious bait and switch to me. Go through the motions with us, make some noise about it and angle for a better move. Then a prem club comes in and he gets the move he really wanted.

It’s pretty much always worth running out your contract if you’re in the last year. You can then negotiate to pocket a load of the money that would have otherwise been spent on a fee. See Mbappe. Obviously comes with the not insignificant risk of injury but that’s the decision to be made.

Kobee!

Thursday night was something else. Never seen a team with so much talent look so ineffectual. If Southgate just plays players in their actual positions we’ll look much better. But he has to go.

Eh? Lol We still have a contract offer on the table don’t we? He’s the one rejecting us, not the other way round.

Yeah I can’t see him staying now.

They’ve only just signed him 🤣

Palmer? an upgraded contract for him might bankrupt the club from what I’m told

Pretty much yeah. With wyscout and similar there’s little need to actually attend games.

Exactly. What is there to a deal other than financial details!

Be jokes if he has an incoming gambling ban or similar, the Tonali special.

What you’re saying is kinda true but doesn’t account for how much easier it is for us to scout and sign domestic players. It’s unlikely to be feasible for us to have the scouting network in place to bring in the volume of players we need to recruit.

it would be rudoni not to

Could have had infinite O’Hares… shite recruitment

Yes but £2m - great signing £3m - hmm £4m+ - oh dear

He’s 22 and excellent with his feet for a CB. Perfect signing and it will be a tough fight between him and Liam for that LCB position. Only worry is if this fee has any impact on our ability to spend elsewhere.
