Is it just me that finds all this plane tracking a bit weird? I mean, it isn't illegal but it's a bit what, voyeuristic? Or a bit anorak, like trainspotting.
Feel he has similar decisiveness in front of goal on the left. 8 G/A all season playing largely out of position. Tan clearly believes in him.
It's an insane deal. The kid only got 12 goals in 46. It's not like the ridiculous numbers Bowen put up when he left
Okay let’s say we get £16 million for KLP How much do we spend on his replacement? Any names people like the look of?
I really like Longman. When he's played on the left, he's so dangerous. I don't think he possesses the same raw ability as KLP but he only cost us 5% of what we're going to see for KLP. It's mad. We knackered Longman really this year by playing him as a RWB
Baz said he had an update on contracts generally the other day but think it’s been bogged down with other news.
I think what has some fans on edge about losing Honeyman and probably KLP is that they are fan-favourites. Honeyman was a grafter and a big personality for us and KLP is the hometown blue-eyed boy. Traoré and Tufan may be more technically-gifted than Honeyman, but they have big shoes to fill in Honeyman’s absence and it remains to be seen whether they will. We’ve lost a solid midfielder who played through a painful shoulder injury for the club and gained an injury-prone player and a ‘lazy’ overweight one to replace him. It’s not a cause for concern just yet but we need to sign a solid defensive midfielder ASAP now that we’ve missed out on Seri.
So as it stands this week we have lost a fans favourite about to lose our best player and lost out on our number one target but we have brought in a free. Ehab you ****.
Would be great if we re-invested some of the money in to the training ground. Ive always thought it must be so underwhelming for players that see it and hearing Twine comment on how good Burnleys facilities are goes to show how important it is.
Nice to see we’re still playing hard ball. If Richarlison and Gordon leave that could be perfect for us getting even more
