I dont mind Grosicki, or the way he's acted. A large proportion of our fans have given him stick from day 1 for not living up to a stupidly high standard. He's assisted a fair amount, he's now scored a couple, he's quick, runs at players and is ultimately more than good enough for Hull City.
Correct, but I doubt we'd sanction a move unless it was for ridiculous money or that we had a replacement lined up. As neither of the aforementioned is the case, expect to see Grosicki in the starting line up against Derby, presuming he doesn't get injured playing for Poland of course.
It's a bit of a mockery really then isn't it? A transfer window should be shut end of? There's an advantage to the Spanish by them having an extra day?
I do love the way now the same people who were asking for the window to shut before the season starts are now complaining about Spanish teams having an extra day. You literally couldn't make it up. I don't mean you btw.
It is odd though! A Spanish buying club could play hard ball with an EPL club knowing they can only sell to them after the window shuts?
Exactly! And that's why bringing the close of the window forward to just before the start of our season is a ****ing stupid idea, which is exactly what I posted when it was the main talking point a couple of weeks back.
The Premier League managers are pretty much universally in favour of the transfer window closing before the season starts, but most of them want it to be a Europe-wide rule not just and English one.
Ah I see, so because we want to move the window to suit us we don't want other teams in Europe adding to their squads in the week before their season starts? Sounds fair.
There's only a week difference between the league start dates in England, France, Germany, Spain and Italy, it shouldn't be beyond the wit of man to start all the leagues on the same weekend, so the transfer windows could also close at the same time.
Nobody's demanding the rest of Europe change their league start dates, but they still all have to agree to everyone starting at the same time and the windows closing at the same time.
I swerved nothing, I just have the advantage of living in the 21st century. I'm yet to meet a player who's ever read the message boards, but on Twitter and Instagram they're being messaged directly and sometimes with fairly unpleasant messages.
