Greg2607 Posted 30 May 2020 Share Posted 30 May 2020 legally, they would have to advertise it internally. If it's gone to an external advert, then it either suggests they don't have anyone in mind, or want to explore who else is available in the market.

Any other midfielders out of contract who we could be trailing? At least Rodgers won't have to stand on a box to look him in the eye.

Popular Post GingerrrFox Posted 1 June 2020 Popular Post Share Posted 1 June 2020 I would love to see Tavares and Gyamfi get a chance towards the end of the season. With no fans in stadiums it really does make it easier to give young players a go as the intimidation factor is gone. It’s essentially a glorified youth team game at this point. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get Terell Pennant in the mixer, he looks to be very talented. His brother as well is only 15 and alrwady scoring regularly for the U18's! I'd love us to secure top 4 with playing a few of them and rattling a few cages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saxondale Posted 2 June 2020 Share Posted 2 June 2020 I do wonder whether with some players, the coaches know they’re never going to be solid PL players, but consider there’s value in developing them up to a level where they can be sold for a healthy sum to a L1/L2 side? From what I’ve seen of the rezzies this year, the outstanding player is that midfielder we signed from Blackburn. The right-sided player we signed from Villa looks quite good too.

I am sure that is a factor, at clubs like Man City and Man Utd they know they are going to raise several million every summer from moving a couple on and it sort of pays for itself. We seldom get fee's for a lot of our youngsters though, we hold on to them for just a bit too long. We should have them on loan by 18/19 and after a couple of loans it usually leads to interest from higher levels who will pay decent money. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll always be a premium for big club Academy kids as they do tend to attract the most promising, hopefully with our new facilities and continuing success we can start to pull in those with greater potential. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We might have six or seven good prospects that we want to develop but we need eleven players and some reserves to compete in the league. Obviously you sign the best you can and hope they make it but a lot are there I'm sure to make up the numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The amount of money they have gained in players such as Mooy, Denis Suarez, Rony Lopes and Jason Deyaner as been worth their time on sell-on clauses alone 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest An Sionnach Posted 3 June 2020 Share Posted 3 June 2020 Dewsbury-Hall and Hirst should go straight into the main squad next season, there has been enough pissing about with useless loan spells . The transfer market will collapse so we have to promote from within. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LcFc_Smiv Posted 3 June 2020 Share Posted 3 June 2020 I know a few coaches putting their names in for the role, two who I have worked with personally who definitely fit the criteria of building strong relationships with their players and are excellent coaches on top of that. However I find it hard to imagine that the club aren't going to promote from within unless they deem a candidate exceptional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lineker's Left Foot Posted 4 June 2020 Share Posted 4 June 2020 I know we only ever hear about Under 23 and Under 18 teams but I have trawled around to find our players from our Under 16 team that are supposed to be quality. I cannot provide a link as I am rubbish at that sort of thing but if you type in on search engine Atlético Madrid Leicester City Harry French it comes up with the squad list - apparently Logan Briggs and Will Alves have represented England.

I suppose it’s because they’re very young that these squad lists are generally not listed easily. Supposed to be two very good Portuguese players at that level too! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
