I once went down this rabbit hole when i noticed these shinpads start to arrive and the evidence shows shin pads do help against mild to moderate impacts like bruises and wounds etc . But if you get properly two footed in the shins, the pads are the least of your worries anyway. You’re still getting folded like a deck chair and probably ending up with a nasty multiple knee ligament tear so shin pads are least of players worries they would rather the mobility with risk versus reward etc

Nelson is in a very tricky position. If we stand firm and refuse to let him leave on the cheap is he really prepared to run down his contract!? Given his injury record one serious injury could leave him out of contract and unable to play and without any guaranteed football income or financial security.

Yep he is going to be a monster and not had his directness out coach by a modern academy up bringing much like vardy.

100% correct

This Carr guy will be a a great great player, not sure his ceiling but he will be in the EFL certainly for a long time at minimum.

Well i cant work out if this is the case or were outting skipp in the shop window like okoli

isnt Braybrooke playing out of position because were insistent on skipp?!

You mispelt Hamza Ric, the inevitable captain fantastic.

Come on now, surely if we want Braybrooke, Page, alves etc to thrive you must see they need some experience around them. im sure chaplin is on about 15/20k a week and Vesty 80k.

Oh yeah i agree. my point was 3 years is fine this contract will be league one, championship and championship for the 3 seasons which is all chaplins level.

Its a slow morning for me, please elaborate 😂

At absolutely best case possible, If we had back to back promotions 2 out of the 3 years would be league 1 and championship. Surely when you put it like thats 3 years is absolutely fine given hes a very good championship player.

Just cant be true - if someone was really considering 7m on Mavadidi you would wrap him on bubble wrap until its done - it would be deal of the century.

Lets be honest Faes being captain doesnt make him more sellable. he must be staying 😂😂😂

He will be back next year like the bad smelling fart he is when another club inevitably doesnt take up the option to buy.

No reality check needed - i said in my post “player sales or owner cash injection” they exist as options regardless of low chance. We are league 1 now and not championship so operating under different rules where a cash injection is a legitimate funding route for transfer fees which is not allowed in the championship. hence why we were likely looking at an investment group not so long ago which would buy shares.

1% happening - A. if he buys into Russell Martin ball for 1 season league 1 and B. we put hefty deal into Brighton with an option/obligation to buy if promoted that balances their books OR we can afford it outright this summer with owner cash injection or player sales.

😍😍😍 wow Russell Martin Ball will unlock that unused part of footballing ability which will take Chaplin to the very top

About to be held to ransom by another cheeky italian club - probably asked to pay in pasta aswell.

If we are going to look at starting the likes of Braybrooke page evans etc then we need this type of experience on the pitch, whether he is fit enough and the right player only time will tell i guess. He did play 20 times last season tbf

Great defender but absolutely need to cash in tbh, especially after just had a good injury free world cup and that seagrave is his kryptonite and will probs weaken when he sets foot on it again.

For the 5th year in a row since Brendan Rodgers expect an imminent announcement from a deflated manager saying its tough and we need to sell before we bring anyone in.

Still young at 21 and lost 2 years of football with injuries so might be a late bloomer now so by time were back in championship he might be a top player.

Birmingham managed it and got promoted and just missed out on the playoffs the next season in championship due to largely the calibre of players they had in league 1. Its all on top and co again, as league one rules means owners can inject money so he could sell the club and or get money pumped in amd we could use a large portion of that for funds. so were not strictly skint its still on the owners.

I think we treated Enzo very well and top rudders still likely arse lick him so i hope he remembers us and gives us loans for the next few seasons off the back of this deal especially given we will play a poor mans clone of the style.
