We seem more interested in arguing with the ref than turning up.

Who’s put 20p in Soumare then?

Remember when people were saying the youth academy lads would be enough for play offs

Need to get a goal before they realise to double up on Monga and take him out of the game.

What happened to the intensity of our press from pre-season by the way? Both games it seems to have been lost!

Agreed would have been very soft giving that

Whilst I agree with you, was about to post myself about Soumare and Skipp both hiding every time we need that option in the middle. Hamza has been making clumsy mistakes and doesn’t seem awake. His winger just got the ball and there was a second delay where he then realised he needs to close down.

Hamza just decided he’s not feeling it today or something? Had like 3/4 mistakes in the first 5 minutes!

I refuse to allow myself any hope he stays. I think we’ve seen Bilal play his last game for us.

Ric get digging for some incoming information from these contacts you’re speaking to lad! I’m desperate here

did you just purposefully choose to ignore the second part of my post?

Honestly, the reaction has been crazy recently. Everyone’s been asking for us to sell the majority of the squad as soon as we do, we lose our bloody minds!! Fatawu was never going to leave this window on the basis of the fee we will demand for a player who’s been out all year with an ACL injury. People need to chill.

Or we don’t believe every rumour going?

One can dream how much did Milan just get for their centre back?

No you was right, I wasn’t aware KDH fell in that financial period due to it being announced in July.

Break even? We should be looking to make a profit on him! Original fee was around £13m with around £10.4m on the books. I would want anywhere between £15-£20m for Okoli, he’s got a huge amount of potential.

Our wage bill was absolutely horrid that season too, losing Vards and selling Wilf & Coady has saved us around £250,000 a week on wages alone. That’s £13m a year saved in it self.

I thought he was sold first few days of July, therefore falling under 24/25?

2 fullbacks need moving on prior to the end of the transfer window. VK’s injury is awful timing as I would imagine him, JJ & Coulibaly are the three options to pick two from.

I don’t know where you are getting these figures from but they are hugely wrong. That summer we sold £88m worth of players….. Maddison £37.5m, Barnes £38m, Castagne £11m & Hirst £1.5m. However, Maddison was sold before the PSR deadline for the previous year so did not count towards the books that season, reducing the total sold to £50.5m. We then spent a total of £30m that summer, leaving us with a net profit of £20m on player sales. Our losses also included the huge wages of Vards. We are currently around £25m net profit this summer, so in a very similar position to the end of that summer so we don’t have much wiggle room currently. I personally expect the Bilal money to be reinvested.

I don’t want to re-bump the Brownhill thread but with Marti’s comments about having enough options in the middle, it really makes me believe they are going all in on him.

He’s more of a pivot type player than an attacking midfielder.

Agreed they picked him up for £2m. But I don’t think he’s out of our price range if Bilal’s release clause gets activated. I think around £15m + add ons would get it done.

I love this kid on footy manager Would be a good option, I’ve got my head stuck on it being Finn Azaz.

What is taking us so long to bloody announce this?!
