And that’s why we haven’t got to overload with Pritchard / older pro’s it just prevents emerging players stepping up. Got to have a spine but pointless developing for tomorrow if they don’t get the games.

Couldn't agree more.

It would be nice if people wouldn't keep dismissing young talent as 'kids' ...

... it shows the posters up as infantile, not the players.

I’d like an older, vocal decent centre back alongside Ballard and a good DM who’s got a good 5 years of football at a decent level under his belt. Think those 2 positions are vital and you need your leaders in the middle to organise everything. Hendo was a perfect example at Liverpool, it was like having a manager on the pitch. Feel like we don’t really have anyone who can lead like that, Pritchard is probably the closest thing we have and he’s not a starter. Other than that I couldn’t give a ****e.

Call me daft but I think Spurs giving Son the captaincy is just madness.

The more I see of our club the more I like.

You really have to pinch yourself at how often top PL clubs allow us to take their brightest prospects as Man Utd did last season ...

... and how thrilled they are to be coming.

Players like Stewart who aren't totally committed can leave, our recruitment team keep showing we now have a set up where players want to be. So, if you 'don't like the direction the club is going', or some other lame excuse, just get yourself gone so we can spend all that profit we've made on you.

It's exciting being part of all this, can't wait for Saturday.

100% agree with all of that Smug.
Also, as I said to my youngest son earlier when there seemed to be a bit of negativity and talk of a toxic atmosphere tomorrow, this is the time we as real fans stand up and be counted. Even if the transfers today don't meet individuals expectations that is not the fault of the 19 players who will pull that shirt on tomorrow and we should rally round them.more, because, as the song is sung to them "I can't help falling in love with you" :emoticon-0152-heart:emoticon-0140-rofl:

Let’s hope we can now offer him what he’s worth and get him tied down to a new deal

If we wants away I’d pack his bags and take the money. As mentioned before he was ****e until he dropped to L1 with us. Easily replaceable. We have young lads upping sticks from all over Europe to come here and play for us.

Also didn’t realise Burstow scored for Chelsea against Dortmund in pre-season. Came off the bench a few times in the PL for them already this season too.

Worrying if Roberts wanted to go, but am sure an nice fat pay rise will cure what ails him........

Think it’s like any walk of life if you feel your employer doesn’t value you you want to go, doesn’t mean it can’t be resolved either mind especially with the incoming Stewart money
