We do have some dosh but Levy isn't going to release much of it. As far as I understand it he's told Mourinho to go bargain shopping. These two lads are probably going for bargain prices. Sadly no matter how cheap they are we'll do sod all with them.
Bargain shopping eh?

I wouldn't bother wasting the cash on these two then - seems to be a juxtaposition the way a lot of our fans/pundits to be talking at the moment (sorry if you actually have info on this sort of thing, I'm not being ignorant on purpose)

Fire sale and play the youth?

Onomah starting to get some good reviews from Fulham fans looking at twitter. He’s playing on sky sports at the moment. Wearing gloves though weirdly!

Watched the game on tele; he's still too laid back. Has good skills but the fire is not there.

It's so frustrating seeing all these kids coming through in the PL and knowing KWP, Onomah and Edwards were all on the cusp.

But it's the personal drive in all the upcomers that's obvious alongside the talent.

All our lads were just a bit soft once they played men's football.

Still a chance they will turn that around as they're all class, but shame they couldn't do what these other young English lads are doing at the moment.

Weird isn’t it. We were told that’s the complete opposite of how McDermott was trying to bring them up in a bit of an uncompromising academy environment. Maybe that isn’t always the way to go with some people if that’s what kind of player it turns them into.

Only if they’re actually gonna get game time otherwise might as well loan them out

Whites is the one with a mean freekick in the youth team?

Who could White be a replacement for in the 1st team right now?

Winks?

Now that KWP is impressing after some game time at Soton, be nice if he finally makes it with us given how bad our RB situation is

Yes that's him.

If we persist with a 4231 he would fit in best on the left of the midfield 2.

Don't think he's quite ready but he is definitely a talented young player.

Think we just care too much about workrate and bullying people

People made way too much out of KWP's physique. He got two MOTM, slipped up one game against Barca otherwise had average games in a poor team often out of position. And everyone just started calling him weak. He hasn't changed except getting a bit more confidence back and looks better at Southampton once he has trust.

Edwards is the same, he's just not physical and appears to be doing well in Portugal.

I said ages ago, if Ndombele started at Spurs and Onomah wherever Ndombele came from, Onomah would be the one spoken about. People said it was mad. Bare in mind the only reason people didn't trust Onomah was because of his languid style and no work rate. And now, Ndombele can't get a game for us as he's too lazy. It's stupid.

If Onomah was in France he would've been playing first team football ages ago, as they care less about all of that stuff than in the PL. We either make an effort to bring them through or we don't. If they don't run around like headless chickens here, you can have all the talent in the world noone will care, or try and work with it.

It's not attitude as Onomah has plenty of it when he wants to, people just want muscle, hustle and bustle or they have no trust in you.
