    It’s got to the point where we may as well just merge with Sheffield United as we both Yo-Yo between the divisions.

    The team in the championship can have those players not good enough for the PL, Bereton Diaz, Arma, Archer etc

    The team in the premier league can have the players who think they’re too good for the championship, but no other premier league club will buy them, Ramsdale, THB, ABK

    We can even share a kit with a Velcro badge

    McCarthy is the best keeper we have for dealing with crosses, even better than Rambo imo, but Bazunu is too slight. He gets knocked around too easily when coming for high balls and I am still not convinced by his shot stopping, as he always seems to be about a second late in diving for the ball.

    Bazunu is just a terrible keeper. He can kick the ball but can’t stop shots.

    McCarty is ok, last championship season when we had a veteran keeper it worked out ok.

    Rumours of KWP agreeing a £75k a week deal with WHU?
    They’re also interested in Ramsdale, THB and Dibling?

    Whilst the are probably our better players, let's hope they do what Liverpool did - bought all our best players, then ended up playing like us for a year!

    So WHU, who will likely finish in bottom 6 are looking to purchase 3-4 players from the team that will finish bottom!? Think their fans will be spitting out their early morning coffee.

    His two penalty saves against Villa certainly won't have hurt his cause (or ours). Add in quite a few PL clubs likely to be in the market for a new no.1 in the summer and we could have ourselves a bit of a bidding war <diva>

    Not if the rumoured release clause is true, which I suspect it is

    He has a relegation release clause so he will simply pick his next club.

    Oh boo! I mean, we had to do what we had to do to get him in the first place...but shame as we could have probably made £10m or so on him.

    Presumably they’d have to match a release fee of some sort. He can’t just go for nothing

    Well clearly. But I don't think there's going to be a shortage of clubs willing to pay it.

    Allegedly it’s £25m (which is what we paid), but yeah he will talk to the clubs willing to pay it and make a decision and his chosen club will be the only ones who actually make an official bid

    70million Euros is £60mill. I don't think the fee will be a lot less than that.
