I agree it 100% needs to be a pro-active and not retrospective.
That was the biggest mistake of FFP.
You want to sign a player you have to demonstrate you're within your PSR budget right now.
Or the player cannot be registered.
All clubs, players, managers, executives, and agents have to...
I take your point.
People are entitled to care about what they want.
I'm just tired of how much oxygen is taken up by relatively minor or trivial issues, at the expense of critical ones.
Particularly by the media and major political parties.
I love how Patriotism in 2024 gives zero fucks about the news of over 2 million British children not knowing where their next meal is coming from.
And instead deploys all available fucks over the colour of a cross on a football shirt.
Just another normal day on normal Island.
Cheers for the info as always.
Barnett-Williams turns 16 in April so would be in the U16 age group. Going full time next season unless held back a school year maybe.
Very surprised on Nicolaou. Was an England regular until recently and very technically gifted. That's actually surprised me more...
He's been outclassed tactically today and refused to make adjustments or subs when the game was still alive.
The players have phoned it in after a week to prepare.
0/10 all round.
Pathetic.
The English FA would have to raise it with FIFA, but essentially he can be banned or fined I believe.
Not happening in this case under Southgate it seems, but given he's not retired or explained himself, there is ample precedent.
It happened with Matip at Liverpool if I recall correctly when...
On this Ben White business, I remember reading in Paul Walsh's autobiography that he declined an England U21 call up under Bobby Robson.
He was 21, with 5 full international Caps under his belt, and just signed for Liverpool and was told to go on their end of season tour.
Robson went public...
I tend to agree, I was more responding to loan backs being bad for us.
I guess the answer is if the buying club is slightly overpaying at somewhere between todays current value (say £25m) and future potential value (say £80m) - call it £40m+, then they can spend that money, still use the...
I don't think we're getting him but re: loan backs in general.
Surely it depends how much of the fee is payable in year 1?
If like most deals it's a fraction of the fee, if it's a long term target we want to secure, and if we have squad depth such that we can cope for a year without him, why...
Perhaps, but in reality even if we sold Emerson, I expect Gray and Bergvall would get any CM minutes ahead of Hall.
Which is also the case with any other CM signing, but given they are all 18 he might see it as more of a career dead end.
If we somehow managed to get him, my only worry with this would be loosing Tyrese Hall.
Contract expires 2024 and @Lilywhite Rose believes we have an option to extend to 2025. So probably sold this summer if won’t renew.
If we managed loans correctly, given the age profiles of our three senior...
Brilliant talent.
The best 6/8 prospect in the country.
Better still, top class temperament and drive to improve.
Never seems flustered or overawed on the pitch despite his age.
Will be able to play now and going right to the top.
Can play the Ange 6 or inverted RB role equally well.
Can’t...
