According to the Mirror. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/everton-aston-villa-target-ahmed-6443206
Let him go. He's had his chance in the Premier league and fluffed it. He's not tearing the Championship apart as predicted either. It is no good hanging on to rejects from the lesser Premier League clubs like Sunderland. Diame, Aluko and Huddlestone all need to start showing something too, otherwise ship them out at the same time and start afresh ... again.
The Mirror have been claiming he was off throughout the last window, they need to make up some new ones.
Did he really? Or was he one the few players who turned up while several others went missing? Do you say all relegated players fluffed it - even Austin at QPR and Marshall at Cardiff the year before? Don't you think he's played enough games for us now to judge him, rather than bring up the club he left 2.5 years ago?
If Townsend keeps playing the way he has been, he could come into contention, though when Maloney returns he'll at least give Robertson/Clucas a bit more cover.
Yeah let's get rid of some our most talented and experienced players and replace them with kids on loan from the big clubs, what could possibly go wrong?
I don't think he's been a supplier of that many goalscoring opportunities. Hopefully Maloney, if he can keep fit, can provide more threat. And Snodgrass should he get fit.
Its the mirror for god sake according Hope I'm wrong really do, but after listening to SB talk about Snodgrass last week in his press conference, I got the impression that this could be a career ending injury and if he does make it back it will be very late in the season. fingers crossed for the lad.
Yes that was definitely the impression I was left with too. However if all of our hopes are left hinging on a possible return of Snodgrass then we really are fubar'd.
Players in the last six months of their deals can sign pre-contracts with new clubs. Pretty common knowledge.
Only if it's a club in a different league, players currently playing in England can't talk to another English club until they're into the last three months of their deal. Pretty common knowledge...
What cock up? People were rubbishing the idea he was free to leave. No one was mentioning which club.
I didnt see a cock-up either. You said he can talk to other clubs, which he can. Where exactly is the cock-up?
You made out as if it was everyone inc PL clubs. Elmo wants to stay in England, he's said as much, so I think it was pretty obvious that you thought he could sign a pre contract in January with anyone.
