Summer window

21 years old and at his 4th professional club. 62 appearances in 4 seasons

Says it all really

 

Im not sure keen is the word I would use. More a begrudging acceptance that considering the signings we’ve made it might be for the best

 

Going to be interesting to see where he fits in, especially when Dack is up to speed.
I fully expect Jobe to play the #10 position tomorrow, so be interesting to see what happens with Pritch. He has quality, but can we rely on him being fit? 64 starts in the 2 seasons he's been here suggests he'll be available for 2/3rds of our games over a season

 

Here is a 1 min summary of the last game of the ukranian lad (he is number 31). He scored a goal and had other two opportunities

 

TM was hinting Bellingham, Dack and Rigg would share time in that role. He never mentioned Pritch which was telling

 

He was saying those players would be rotatated whereas Pritchard may be a regular starter ...

... or, as you say, he's leaving.

It's hard to see which systems Mowbray will use tbh.

 

Broadhead type? Basically an established Mayenda?

could he push Roberts and Clarke when Ross is back?

 

This. It's easy from the outside to question the decision, however, you'd think the kid will have even less of a chance playing in goal. I was say about sloshing around in leauge 1 and 2 out on loan etc. Chelsea arent exactly known for developing.... anyone these day.Alas, good luck the lad.

 

Life changing money maybe....but life changing money for him (his family) now....had he stayed with us...emulated Pickford (Patterson potentially)....then your talking life changing money....parents are potentially responsible for wrecking his career....but hey ho they have kade a few quid from there lad....any responsible parent would want to look directly at the route to first team at a good level of the game, look at facilities etc etc.... Chelsea may have the facilities but he could not have chose a worse club to progress with....in the hardest position on the pitch

Hope his parents enjoy there new house & car etc...not a choice id make for my boys given the chance....but id care what they could achieve long term tbf.....if he had stayed & progressed....his parents would have some shxthead agent to get him the best deal pre professional or at some other point so we would not have seen him anyway....might as well be gone now if thats the family attitude....not dor SAFC anymore

 

At least we potential managed to get a 7 figure fee. Plus we are well stocked with promising young keepers

 

Hes more technical that Mayenda from what ive seen. He def could push our wingers for sure but he could also be our main striker, he will run the channels and while he isnt rapid he looked quick

 

Agreed, why say we needs experience in midfield.... then want Pritch gone?

 

We have signed Dack mate

 

I also don’t think Pritchard counts as midfield… bear with me

for me the midfield is the midfield 2 (or 3). Pritchard isn’t that role. He’s the attacking central midfielder. He shouldn’t be playing deeper.

The experience we need is within the midfield two, to supplement Neil and Ekwah. For me they’re actually our only two options for those two positions. I don’t think Jobe or Rigg are ready to be trusted in a midfield two yet, hence moving to a midfield three if either of them are playing.

 

Was discussing with @scout 73 that we may actually bring 2 cm in

 

There’s Matete of course but he’s out for a while

 

He is an interesting one. There is definitely a player there but I was expecting him to get another loan move, before he picked up his injury.

 

I know mate, but we need a balance of more than 2 with experience. I guess my point is, Pritchard is a lovely footballer, Evans is grafter,Dack not sure yet.

 

We'll keep England in keepers for a long time going forward lol

 

Experience should not be purely based on age mate. The likes of Neil are picking up plenty of experience now
