Any team in the top 5 leagues is probably a good option considering the point he is at in his career

Going to racing Santander apparently, will be interesting to see him against Barca and Real Madrid. Also surely people aren't calling Vardy boring personality wise, considering his personality on and off the pitch is probably as iconic as his ability on it. Don't think anyone has ever come across well in an interview.

Would rather be in league 1 having played the academy players a bit more with the upside of them potentially coming good at championship level in the coming years than having stayed up last season and been looking down the barrel of relegation next season with minimum future prospects and the academy players leaving. Sadly we have gotten the worst of both worlds, the pathway wasn't shown to the youngsters so they will leave and we also got relegated. Motsi should have been in and around the first team going into next season whether we're in championship or league one anyway.

I genuinely believe the lack of game time for young players last season was worse for the club than relegation itself. It was the best opportunity to flush the rubbish and bring back some direction into the team and we wasted it. Now young players are looking at their prospects here and realising that older players will always be prioritised.

Imagine being a West Ham fan getting relegated from the PL because of mismanagement/players not being bothered then signing Harry Winks who has been a key part in us going down to league one. There would be riots.

Can't really be called stiffing is when it comes to paying a fee for Wout Faes. We should probably be paying them! (And likely will end up paying them to cover some of his wages)

I assume you also read through all 68 pages?

Not trying to prove something, could just see that Hermansen had lost something at the end of our last PL season and was happy for him to leave for a fee. Had he been with us this season we wouldn't be able to get any where near £15mil for him and I don't think he would have kept us up. Stolarczyk has been disappointing though, felt that certain fans were unfairly on his back after a good start to the season but he let his head drop too easily in response to that. The talent is there but the mentality isn't.

Seems to be a division between whether they think he is entirely poor or has some redeemable qualities. Positive remarks only seem to come up when in relation to Areola.

Starts today, massive game for cremonese

I think West Ham who have watched him every week this season would agree with me. Good goalkeeper for us but that injury has killed him off. Danny Ward also had 6 clean sheets in the first half of 2022/23, I don't think you would find many people saying he wasn't too shabby then.

Danny Ward had a decent couple of games before the world cup. Across the whole season Hermansen has put in a lot of stinkers. The kind of games you would forgive a PL level goal keeper for having once or twice in a season has been every other game for him.

Sadly he's finished now, not just at Premier League level. Been a complete liability for West Ham this season and was bad for us after his injury. No matter how underwhelming Stolarczyk has been, getting a fee for Hermansen when we did was the right decision.

When you have clubs like ours that would rather loan a big 6 academy player like Mukasa than play our own in Page then players need to be able to leverage their own value in order to convince clubs to play them. Whether we like it or not, agents give young players power in an industry that is incredibly cut throat. I prefer the reality where our young players are able to at least partly control their own future rather than leave it up to the likes of Rudkin who will always prefer ready-made journeymen.

What does dominating a league 2 game look like to you? It's an 11v11 game, as a midfielder it's difficult to win games yourself if the others aren't up for it. All you can do I be amongst the best on the pitch, which he was.
