But then factor in Wigans sell on which will perhaps be 20% ... we paid 5? sell for 12 = 7 profit less 1.5 sell on = 5.5 which doesnt buy you jack at his age We've sold Macca for 500k and Jones for 2 million... Ajayo injury prone, leave sEgan and the dont know about bloke form Wednesday... we would leak goals like a sieve. I think Serge has told the club under no circumstance sell him. He said in his interview, next season he will be with a top 5 club.
A few Wednesday fans that I have spoken to (all separately) say when he's fit, they think Famewo is the best defender in the league. He seems to have gone completely under the radar really due to his injury ridden season last season. For all 3 to say he's that good, we might have got lucky.
Funny, my German Grandpa who emigrated to Canada (he spent all his Canadian days in Kitimat), was called Heinz. My cousin on the island has now moved up to French Creek, I know you’re somewhere in the region of all that.
Does anybody know if the BBC blocked listening to their radio interviews abroad? I can’t seem to get to Sergej’s interview.
Possibly. But I can't help feeling there's another side to the timing of these rumours. They’ve surfaced right on the day - and just before - an important meeting with the EFL about our financial viability. Suddenly, we’re able to say we’ve got a player clubs are willing to pay £10 million for (or whatever).
Ipswich would be lucky if the got £5 million for Greaves now - he had a very poor second half last year, he was pushed out to left back which is what Rosie did with him to stem the goals and the fans started getting on his back - not aware anyone's come in for him over the Summer - clearly people think Hughes is a much better option with the amount of attention he's getting
I think our centre-half options are better now than last season, at least in terms of ability. There are still question marks over fitness and dependability over the course of a season. Egan’s getting on and both Ajayi and Famewo have had injury problems. Famewo is a rock at centre-half. Really good defensively. A little bit clumsy on the ball and has a mistake in him in that regard but he’s improved his ball-playing abilities a lot.
So it is. Sounds like the decision after today’s hearing is to be made by 12 noon on September the 1st.
I agree. He wasn’t impressive at all last season. I’ve said it before but he would’ve been better off going to an established Premier League club where he wasn’t expected to start straight away like West Ham, Everton or Fulham.
