    Wright

    The initial fee wasn't £25M though. so it appears we are disagreeing over around £2M

    Wright

    Near what? This was a reply to my original post (1034) where I said "if he has a good world cup we could probably get somewhere near what we got for Vik if we decided to sell"

    Wright

    Transfer values have gone up since we sold Vik, Haji is only 6 weeks older than Vik and age didn't stop Arsenal paying £60M for him. I appreciate next summer is another year away but clubs will pay a premium for goals.

    Wright

    You missed some great posts from this poster. Imagine if we had sold him for £1M and he was now playing like this for another team, perhaps a competitor in this league. Seriously though, people can get frustrated when your star signing isn't playing well, but that often happens. If he has a good...

    Early Stats

    Yes he played for Sunderland as well as West Brom & Wolves. To be fair he was a good player. I don't care much how he pronounces covuntree, as long as he keeps talking about us in a complementary way.

    It's a bit worrying that he thinks Blackburn, Portsmouth, Watford, Wrexham, and Sheffield. Utd is 6 games

    Early Stats

    As I stated on post 27 here https://www.skybluestalk.co.uk/threads/same-stage-last-season.172459/#post-3496033 Leicester would be on 18. They are on 16 now, they would have got 2 extra points if they beat us.

    Same Stage Last Season

    Not only that but if we had lost to Leicester and QPR they would both be on 18 points now. Millwall would be one behind on 17 if they had beaten us.

    Next batch of 6 before the final break

    I think we will lose one of them but only one. I can't see the goals drying up although no matter how well we play there will be games when things don't go our way. I think 4 wins and a draw.

    Ellis simms

    It's an interesting one because the may be obstructing the official's view so they would have to give the scorer the benefit of the doubt without VAR I suppose

    Matty grimes

    And we may well lose to teams like Leicester, but there aren't that many of them.

    Season so far ratings

    It's early days for Rushworth and some of his early performances were a bit concerning but he's starting to look a class keeper. 7 is about right ATM but I think he will soon be a 9.

    "It never happens for people like us, you know"

    Yes I said in another post I think Leicester are better than many think. Their pending points deduction (if it comes) could well mean that autos are out for them though. I read somewhere that their hearing date has been set, but the date is confidential. Don't know if that's true or not.

    OH WHAT A GLORIOUS MORNING

    Yes, I've had this dream many times, this time I seem to be awake.

    Opposition Manager's Dilemma

    I mentioned that we didn't take our many chances against Norwich, I also I think we have grown in confidence since our defence has played better, so I think that covers the early games. Leicester, we were under the cosh for much of the game, but I think they are better than people think. Of...

    Opposition Manager's Dilemma

    How do they stop our attacking threat. It's very difficult because at any one time we have 5,6,7 players on the field at once who all carry a genuine goal threat, Wright, EMC, BTA, Torp, Thomas, Rudoni when fit, and even our full backs are dangerous going forward. Then we have players with a...

    QPR 6th. Shame about their goal difference

    Championship thread 25/26!

    Blackburn, Portsmouth, Watford, Wrexham, and Sheff U coming up, 3 at home. We could expect points from all of those. 3 wins and a draw would keep us at or near the top, any more would be brilliant.
