If the sheaf deal is we can choose Wether or not to buy him, it's at our discretion.... I don't think Robins will sign him for 750k... I just don't.
If we have to sign him as part of the deal then obviously we will

John Stones and Danny Drinkwater are premier league winners, and I’m telling you James is the best player we’ve had in the last 15 years, that’s how good he his pal.

Quite possibly true, at this moment in time I'd be pissed off if we spent 750k on him though... Like I said I think we can get better for the money

Not hearing anything
Doesn't mean it's not happening
Things are much more difficult because of the pandemic so less people are involved personally than in normal times

Just what I think, I'm normally very fair with players... Me.. I don't rate sheaf we can do better for the money, nothing in what I've said should come as a shock, he splits the fans anyway

He’s still very young and it’s his first season at this level,I like him he just needs to speed things up at times.

He’s smiling a lot more which helps too

Hes not urgent enough and too casual... For me it's never been the sort of player I want as a holding midfielder, I prefer the kante, makelele type holding midfielders. Just the way I like my players

Sheaf has good stats on paper, but when you realise 95% of his passes make Sammy clingan look adventurous then his stats are a bit scewed... I often wonder Wether he looks sideways when he walks, or does he have to turn back after walking 5 yards who knows

but most on here think I talk shite so you’ll have wait while you see him.

I’d completely forgotten that you South Yorkshire types use the word “while” for “until”. Confused the hell out of me at Uni when lecturers said a lecture was “9 while 10” — wtf?

£750k for Sheaf if true would be an absolute coup

Well I mean who would I regard a good deep lying playmaker, like toni kroos or pirlo back when.. Question... How many times a game do good deep lying playmaker surrender possession in their own half ?
These players already know the pass they will make much before they receive the ball... And are alot more adventurous with their passes more often hence the term playmaker...


Sheaf doesn't do this, he passes backwards and sidwards 95% of the match.

Don't insult me silly

The best deep lying playmaker at Coventry is........... Hamer... By a mile... He did ofcourse cost twice the sheaf fee but is also twice the player

He's defo mad mistakes for sure, but personally I think a lot of his passing is pretty progressive given the position he plays, he's not really a backwards / sideways guy I don't think.

Watch the next match, I'd put money on him having more passes in his own half than the opposition half for starters

This will be a great signing , it will also ensure we don’t have to play sheaf as much , we are in danger of him playing enough games to trigger us having to sign him
