Yeah, but has it not always been thus? I love that banter. As long as it doesn't cross a line in the stands. It even happens in cricket ffs.
I hate it in cricket. "Send offs" to the batsmen. India and specifically Kohli are the worst, even worse than the Aussies
It's useless info, but if he's getting the only available first 11 number, regardless of position then that's a statement of expectations. Hopefully it's a more successful appoinent than the shirts previous incumbent.
Connolly took the 44. Shirt number has nothing to do with it. Ebiowei is a young promising player who was getting PL minutes, he will be first choice or near enough to it even if he wore the 99.
I'm sure we have high hopes for this lad too,but alas twt whether Liam shoves him into first team from the off, I suspect its very much a case of earn the right to play
Which is why he's getting the pick of numbers. That's a thing, you know? In club hierarchy. Its nothing other than psychological.
Think we'll see Ebiowei off the bench against Cardiff and he'll be eased into the team. While we're winning and looking good there's no need to tear the team sheet up. Would think he'd be eyeing up Slater's wide spot though.
The completion of this important, extra piece of paperwork - known as a deal sheet - allows clubs additional time to submit all other necessary documentation on deadline day. Once the clock strikes 21:00 the form may be submitted to EFL officials, but not after the 23:00 deadline. The form itself is simple, consisting of blank spaces to fill in the name of the player, the two clubs involved, the fee agreed and any compensation payable. When the league gives the green light to notify the sheet has been received, it allows the club until 01:00 to get the transfer completely signed off. However, this does not mean clubs can abuse the deal sheet and announce their intention to sign a player with no evidence to back it up at 22:59, for example. To make the form valid, a substantial amount of the paperwork must have been already been completed. Furthermore, it does not prevent any further snags from being hit in regard to international transfers. For players coming from overseas, the two clubs involved still have to comply with the FIFA Transfer Matching System (TMS) deadline of midnight in order to get the deal done.
If you watch his YT from his time at Derby 95% was on the right..... on the other hand the lad Konrad plays on the left...
I'd love to know how this FFP works for the likes of Chelsea, the amount they've spunked since the new owners took control
