    With the way Sacha and Fabrizio work in tandem more or less, I think the reports to say Petrovic was not advanced were quite accurate in hindsight.

    I think we will have an update on Petrovic quite soon and a here we go not long after.

    This is all so much better and a lot quicker than any of us imagined....honestly feels like a totally different ethic and set up to the last few windows. Cant wait for the season to start.
    Haway the lads, FTM!

    Sacha much more accurate for Belgian market and big clubs apparently. Can be hit and miss elsewhere. It was telling to me (and still is) that Romano hadn’t mentioned Petrovic to us at all yet. Although he may feel a bit burned following Bulka (not that he reported anything wrong)

    He might actually do something in the PL. They won't double and triple mark him.

    And whatever else he ever does, he made THAT pass. How he could even see it never mind play it is beyond me!

    I’m hoping the new lad brings out the best in Roberts and vice versa COME ON

    Tbf to Sacha he’s been backed up by Mike McGrath and the guardian have posted bits and bobs about it. But as Fab hasn’t posted anything it’s not that far down the line.

    I think it’ll be done soon though

    It's not just Roberts though...you can add 09, Cirkin, Patto, Neil, Isador to that list who many on here have labled not good enough for the Premiership.
    How the **** we actually got promoted is completely beyond me.....some 'fan's on here need a reality check on how proper fans should support and not pull these lads who've given their all to get us into the top league to bits before we've kicked a ball next season.
    I know I'm probably in the minority but hope these exciting new signings are really the big step up from what we already have....time will tell.

    Said before but when Magath was at Fulham he said that Roberts was the most talented young player he had worked with..you dont just lose that.

    Well tbf that's because the team we played against also weren't premiership standard. But I do think a lot of our players from last season will play big parts.

    wouldn’t want to be a defender getting counter attacked by Mayenda and Talbi

    It was he and Clarkie that won us the Play off Division 1 Semi at Wednesday. It was he and Alex Pritchard that set up Ross Stewarts goal at Wembley against Wycombe and it was he who set up Mayenda for the first and again he for dribble and drive into the Blades defence resulting in the misplaced pass for Tommy to score from. Other than that, he does nowt.

    11 Champions league appearances last year. ELEVEN.

    Our squads grand total of even PL appearances are handful of subs from Paddy.

    Another £17 million to be spent soon on top of the £25 million net spend we currently have, unspent though.

    This is mental, we finished 4th, quite a way behind, and won via the playoffs. We were a decent side in the champ, the gap to the PL is ****ing huge, people need to wake up to that imo. Sentiment gets you nowhere. No one is saying sell everyone, we are simply saying upgrade and let the lads compete man

    Looking at the Talbi highlight reel, one thing that stands out to me is that there's no wastage in his time on the ball. He doesn't seem to slow the game down or have to beat his man for the sake of it. He's rapid and direct. He's either using his pace to break and stretch the pitch or he's finding a teammate. He looks perfect for counter attacking football.

    Imagine 2 seasons ago getting a player with champions league experience and still in his prime.
