Finn Claw II

He’s the sort of player that if you base the whole team around him, tell him he’s great and things are generally going well, will be great. Next season may well bring all of that and Winks will be a star man. Or another season of an unfit team, zero confidence and zero plan.

Lucrative offer mentioned in the mercury article. Nice to see us still throwing the money around.

Not sure any of the players released will get anything like the salary we paid them. Equal terms is meaningless when you are doggo and overpaid

Play shit, get banged.

I think the reality is that the out of contract players plus a few more saleable players go - Abdul, Jordan James, Faes. A few will be loaned out, Winks, Hamza, Okoli possibly Kristianson I can see interest in Nelson and Monga but neither has demonstrated that they had PL potential yet as this side drags everyone down.

This smells of a 2 year loan with no obligation and us paying 110% of his wages

If you have 3 bad eggs then bin them all off - aside from James and Abdul every player in this team could be replaced by someone / anyone and we wouldn’t be materially worse. Rudkin, Rowett, half the squad - bin them all off

We love a draw so 3 of those, Millwall will beat us and we’ll need to win and hope results go our way last game of the season. Which they won’t

Most of the Premier League outside of the top 6 manage to not overpay and are not ‘big’ clubs either. We choose to overpay or simply don’t buy quality.

You buy him and then send him out on loan if we are League One, either loan with an obligation to buy (so a profit) or just a loan and if we go up he’s back playing with us. if you loan him out with a fee, there is limited in year accounting cost

Against this - we’ll end up with something like the below in a few years top 2 promoted next 16 play-offs relegation play-ff of 4 Bottom 2 relegated

Winks and Skipp bossing league one. The next article will be the 2 year Daka extension no one knew about. With Faes back from his loan, Rudkin given a promotion, next season already has that ‘new chapter’ feel to it.

If a double relegation isn’t a sackable offence for a DoF then I don’t know what is. Total shambles from top to bottom this club

Surely every team can fluke a clean sheet at least once. 1-0 win!

With injuries and a lack of options the side almost picks itself. High intensity play would be nice to see
