    Agree....bit maybe your/me/lot of fans are basing that on our 'realistic' ambitions for the season....KLD's might be way higher, may see it as a good price for talent & experience to prevent an drop off second half of season....how we keep an increasingly talented squad happy game time wise is another challenge.....we also wont know the conversations which take place with players....could be along the lines sign, help us push on, were going to play lot more games next season

    Looks like a part 2 from Phil Smith with Ghisolfi

    Spot on about Ballard!

    I know Micky Gray made a tit of himself about the England squad comment but Dan must be attracting that level thay if he would be getting a call up now?

    I haven't watched England for a while so no idea what they are like at the back but I doubt there are many CB's playing in the premier league who are an absolute rock at the back but also offer such a threat at set pieces! We have already and will continue score goals all season from set pieces directly from Dan scoring or assisting and then there is the times that they panic in the box knowing they have to try and ****ing stop him!

    I have seen people say "and people doubted me when I said he could step up!" I have no idea where that comes from? All last season people talked about losing him if not promoted cause he was easily ready, obviously in the summer there was a lot of "i hope we can compete" type feelings about the entire team! Why wouldn't there be after what we have seen but I don't think any of it was really believing Ballard wasn't good enough!

    Said exactly the same thing a while back mate. Nwaneri will be 4th choice I’d imagine with Dowman coming through he would be an excellent signing.
