No doubt they did a job with John, the Brazilian lad, but it’s not low for a keeper, could argue it’s low for his potential, but for a keeper, especially a non-English one, it’s not low. (It literally puts him in the top 20 for keepers.) Would rather have kept him, bit our fantastic recent management has ensured that was unlikely.

That you did, fair play. Addons will remain a mystery for now I assume.

Suggest research might be in order.

I know people love to moan about the club, but in isolation, this is a fairly high fee for a goalkeeper, especially with his experience. Get you can state his potential which is high, but also his injury record. Seems a touch low, but non English keepers don’t go for the figures being dreamt up. Get a bloody striker.

Can we sweep in for this John fella?

There are benefits to being their feeder club then

Quite, we all know that it was 40m if he was from Husbands Bosworth, but he was from Daneland though, 18m is his ceiling.

Keepers don’t go that high, especially those who aren’t English and have not blown the doors off. Get a grip.

That was bollocks then as well. People loose all sense of perspective. 18m is decent, not great, not bad, just meh.

But it is your job to say who isn’t good enough, so you need a benchmark to judge that, ergo….

Because the reality is far worse. Big club tax. Even being associated with one imparts a tax.

Think the English tax is more the thing as both Pickford and Ramsdale went for more from relegated clubs.

True, its not as binary as I was making out - they should get plenty of time this season.

"If they are good enough, they are old enough" Doubt any coach at the highest level uses such blunt differentiation.

That’s fine, but next time people complain about us not trusting youth, we should revisit.

So wait until the bright lights of the Premier League to blood him? Nah, get him in. We cannot espouse youth and then not play them, its madness.

Easier to introduce youth in the Championship than in the Premier League, should we go up.

Alves, Monga are ready replacements. He can go. If we are going to back youth, this is the time.

Not sure we have an action here, as if his release is met, it’s on Wilf. Unless you mean we should accept the lower bid too?

18m or even 20m is a fairly large chunk for a goalkeeper in the championship tbh. Good for our PSR (boo)

Ah ok, you could well be right then. Just like Mads, if he has to go, want him gone.

Just think he would be a late in the window type transfer, especially if nobody stumps up a decent fee for Mads.

Think this season we need to get behind the team, especially the manager and his team. Our recent past is not their fault, so endless negativity is just piss poor and only self serving.

Well quite, but we can’t be collecting players.

We don’t need a LB when we have Luke and Woyo.
