He’s played 15 times and scored 6 goals. The time to be worried about the immediate/short-term security of his career has long passed.

We may have had the option to do that before he recovered from his injury but we weren’t willing to take the gamble. Now his wage demands will be decided by his performances for the rest of the season and by the level of interest from other clubs, and I expect both to be strong.

He’s 28 until he’s 29 not a 20-goal a season striker until he’s scored 20 goals

Not many Championship CBs of Kitching’s age get sold for more than £4.5m. Wright is playing very well and is still some way off being a 20-goal a season striker. I like both players a lot and they are extremely valuable to us, but I’m not banking on either commanding Gyokeres/Hamer-size fees in...

A wild Nigel Pearson emerges!

I think we may have bought at the top in terms of Wright and Kitching’s value. Maybe even Simms, but he’s young. Nothing wrong with that - that’s how you build a team that’s capable of winning now - but we shouldn’t be banking on every player we sign being flipped for several multiples of their...

This is what Robins has said: Well, that’s what he said about Yasin Ayari, anyway. My point is, there’s a lot of excitement about the kid and for good reason. But he has a lot to prove and he has to show it first - far more experienced/established players would struggle to break into this side...

It’s not the referee’s job to make sure no-one ever gets hurt on the pitch. Sometimes players are going to get hurt when someone else gets the ball before them, it’s ok. I’m going full on #GamesGone here.

I wouldn’t put him in the side over Eccles until I actually see him play. Very good yet again yesterday.

Could you not say this about any time someone kicks the ball hard? Anyone who says it was a penalty is talking nonsense, Robins included.

Something about his appearance and demeanour reminds me of England’s greatest manager, Gareth Southgate.

You were doing so well!

Queues outside the turnstiles were pretty mad yesterday. Got there earlier than usual (about 20 minutes before kickoff) and only just made it in on time. Queues over by the Anecdote blocking the entire pathway and at times snaking into the car park…I know it’s a sellout crowd but hard to believe...

Don’t know about anyone else but I feel fucking horrendous

Were it not for his history with us then I assume someone would have suggested his name as an option for a backup winger this window.

Shit……was really hoping he would stay.

Thought Dasilva did well when he came on

I can tell you’re not a football agent with negotiation skills like this

It was his sloppiness that led to the penalty decision and he struggled with Mavididi. It wasn’t until we introduced Dasilva and Simms on the left that he started to get into the game.
