£18m is lower than we wanted but hopefully there's clauses on the contract so if he moves on for a profit down the line we get a slice.

 

Stol is fine for Championship level and with experience could become more than fine. Give him the season and see where we are. If we get promoted we can look at options.

 

With all of Ndidi, Vardy, Coady and Ward off the books we must have saved well north of £10m in wages, depending on how accurate their rumoured salaries were probably more than £15m. Add in the sales so far and it's getting towards a tidy sum. Hopefully enough to appease the dodgy legislation.

 

A high energy midfielder and a striker is all we really need to acquire this summer.

Neither can mads

It's fairly miserable for any goalkeeper playing in the side we had last season. Land it on a sixpence and you'd almost guarantee our player would somehow allow the opposition to get in first.

The stats may be similar (and lets be honest way to simplistic to get much info from) but anyone who actually watches can easily see how much more comfortable Mads is on the ball and the actual better quality of his passes

Yes, this is what separates them really. Stolarkzyk isn’t Iversen bad with the ball at his feet, however he’s not a patch on Hermansen. 
 

Either way, they’re both better than Danny Ward!

Josh Brownhill would be a great signing, however I’m not sure it’s a sensible long term move.

What about when in the same team and the goalkeeper that is noted as not very good with his feet has better pass completion for launched passes?

Danny Ward is even better than both of them

Where is this structure and momentum you are seeing,  Selling a player under value, that weakens our XI? 

We sold the player to the one club who made the best offer….as far as I am aware no other club showed any interest…..so sell him for £20m or not….sadly we have no choice…..other than to keep him…..time will tell if it has weakened the squad….

Thank you for sharing this graphic as a whole for the season, is it possible to grab/make one for when he wasn’t injured? 
 

As you and everyone knows he was playing a large part injured, was it the Newcastle game he did himself in and was substituted at half time?

not great, but solid business.

 

this window has seen some solid business.

 

ndidi - solid

 

coady - the most solid of business

 

 

in other news, my dogs bowel issues seem to have resolved

We won’t be keeping bilal 

Don’t need to sell him, and the club stated one key asset a year, so that one has now gone.

Won't have a choice if his release clause is activated.

Think some people need to be realistic some of the fees quoted, 40m having a laugh!

 

He was probably the best shot stopper in the prem for the first 10 games, but he had 2 injuries keeping him out for extended periods of time. When he played in between those injuries he wasn't the same player.

 

We were never going to get north of 20m looking at the previous season as a whole.

 

The fee sucks and below what we'd want for him but we lost our leverage years ago thanks to the decisions made by the SLC.

The fee is frustrating. What annoys me about the fee, is WHU have clearly played us and we've fallen for it like a naive little child. 

 

How many times when we were an established PL team did we express interest in a player only to get knocked back repeatedly until the end of window where at which point we were desperate so either paid the asking price or more?

 

For the first time in years we're in a position with Mads where technically we don't/shouldn't need to sell him, and if the transfer went to the wire we're fine as we already have his replacement, yet the club have caved in at the first sign of WHU expressing interest in a keeper with no experience in the PL, and at a time when similar aged keepers with similar ability appear to be going for higher fees. I appreciate there's the PSR argument but surely having moved on Coady and Wilf, whilst getting JV, Ward plus other high earners off the books we have a bit less urgency. 

 

I just hope we've included add-ons in the deal, though doubt we have as we never seem to pursue this option. 

 

From a playing perspective, I'm not overly concerned as Stolarczyk is an excellent alternative so we're lucky that we can at least go into the new season confident that we have a very good keeper between the sticks.

I'm honestly not sure how to do it, or if its an option on these sites. I'm sure there will be people on the forum who will be able to.

 

I'm sure he would look better overall if the stats was only during Coopers time.

We lost our EPL status so no real bargaining power as I'm sure Mads doesn't really want to play in the Championship again anyway. Better to take a good fee and settle the books than have a player with 1 eye on the Prem and a disgruntled Stol in the squad. Now time to get a striker in.
