    Bobby Thomas to Sheff Utd ?

    If Hull seriously want £20m for him, it's a pretty brief conversation.

    Bobby Thomas to Sheff Utd ?

    We don't really know what goes on behind closed doors, teams may have enquired. There was no sign of any interest in Thomas before this story broke. Unless we've got seriously good replacements lined up, it's just not the right time to be selling a CB. We only have 3 first teamers and I'm not...

    Bobby Thomas to Sheff Utd ?

    I don’t think he’s given the ball away nearly as much since Lampard has come in.

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    It is impatient because the window hasn’t closed.

    Transfer Rumour Bassette to FC Utrecht

    A lot of our fans know nothing about negotiating anything in real life and it shows. Back in Jan 2023, there were people who would’ve sold Vik for £8m… 😂

    Transfer Rumour MVE to Wolfsburg

    We do, his name is Haji Wright and it’s on us to play him there. It’s worth noting that these shots would’ve mostly been outside the box. Rudoni, MVE and maybe Saka will have had a shot inside the box.

    4-2-3-1 and 4-4-2 are more or less the same formation. Rudoni and the starting striker sit in a 4-4-2 shape out of possession. Rudoni and Wright had free roles v Hull and Luton, the play style being different of course but there isn’t much difference.

    I reckon we'll see 4-4-2 for this one unless Rapha is being trusted with a starting berth in the league. Unless I've missed it, there's no update on EMC so at this point I'd presume he's not going to take part.

    Would you sell Rudoni?

    Our squad is one of the most expensive in the league, even with the money Blues and others have chucked about. 4 of those teams are parachute payment teams and Norwich who had built up a squad who attracted massive fees from their parachute payments/Prem days.

    Would you sell Rudoni?

    I don't buy the Blues nor Wrexham hype yet. The idea we'll sell Rudoni to Southampton is not credible imo. They probably do want him but is it a move Rudoni will be desperate for? Probably not. If Rudoni improves on last season's performance, a better Prem team will come in for him than...

    Would you sell Rudoni?

    We got more points than Sheff U after Xmas last season and including Lampard's tenure we were close to Sheff U, only 3-6 points behind. There is room to improve the squad but it's not as drastic as you say here. Both last season and 23/24 was mired by v slow starts.

    Would you sell Rudoni?

    Good. If a team isn't meeting our valuation for a player then we shouldn't sell. If a team is only willing to pay £6m for MVE or £15m for Rudoni, I'd genuinely rather take the punt on going up this year and keep them. Reminds me when Celtic wanted to pay us £375k for Westwood and (at the time)...

    Ex Player Reactions

    Liam Walsh was red carded against us earlier this season and was generally a bit of a shithouse... That's probably why he was booed. The clapping for ex-players is tinpot.

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    You're jumping to a conclusion, it's been 2 games and we set up differently between the Hull and Luton games. Discounting the League Cup, if most of our games pan out as it did v Hull, I'm pretty optimistic. It was a disappointing result but we controlled the game well and it's something to...

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    Has everyone else strengthened? Are Sheff U in a better place? If we keep things in perspective, this team got the 3rd most points in the league post-Xmas, so the squad is in a good place. Now, 1-2 signings would boost us (obviously) but we can afford to be patient in finding the players that...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Luton Town [LC] Match Thread - Tuesday 12th Aug

    Correct on both counts. Specifically, Rudoni is the key to the 4-2-3-1 system and playing him LW reduced his impact on the game and the midfield didn’t function as well with Torp as an AM. Hence, you swap out your winger (Sakamoto) for a striker and play your key AM in 3 man midfield. The...

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    It’s just not that desperate a situation. The bigger risk is selling Rudoni and not replacing him adequately. If that leads to results tailing off and another year in the ‘5 year plan’ passes by without getting closer to the Prem… There’s a real possibility that we’re forced into a full rebuild...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Luton Town [LC] Match Thread - Tuesday 12th Aug

    Rudoni would play RW presumably… One of the reason we switched to 5-3-2 last season was because Rudoni was shifted out to LW after EMC got injured v Millwall. Rudoni has ended up on the RW quite a lot after we’ve made subs which is why people see a logic to having a midfield of...

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    It assumes the value was actually there for Simms and Sheaf in the summer of 2024. There were tenuous links but as far as we know, nothing materialised. Just as Brighton and Newcastle were tenuously linked to Bassette… there was never an opportunity to cash in.

    My gut feeling is that Lampard prefers EMC to Sakamoto.
