I think we will get a lot of enquiries about Rutter mainly from France, Germany, Spain and Italy, but there are also a couple of Prem sides watching. Archie Gray is also on some lists as well as Gnonto
A year in the championship will get Rutter ready for English football. Sell no one in January if we’re serious about getting promoted.
We all slagged off Orta for buying Rutter because we all expected a £35m player to rescue us so it was wasted money. He was a 20yo kid with that weight on his shoulders. Orta was right about him though but should have got him this summer and used the £35m on a top striker who could have kept us up. I always believed Rutter was a special talent simply because facts and stats don’t lie. Rutter had the 3rd best dribbling stats in European football and a mile ahead from the 4th best player but he was only just behind Messi and Mbappe that’s a bit special. He wasn’t given a chance last season because the climate of fear in the squad and coaching staff. Anyone who watched him get his first start against Fulham last March should have noticed he had a good goal ruled out which was a good goal. He set up some great chances and forced some good saves from the Fulham keeper. Garcia should have stuck with him and maybe kept his job?
If we can get Gnonto out for £35 million next summer then it's a great piece of business. He looks dangerous and is eye catching but he doesn't seem to get many goals or assists.
Hopefully they like Sinisterra and we can somehow reach an arrangement in January to make the loans permanent. Sinisterra under contract with us until 2028 remember.
I’ve felt from day one we will go up as champs, we’ve easily the best attacking lineup of the division. Our league position will be important come January the 1st as it will be the difference to holding on to some of these players
Think Bammers will come good in the championship the question with him is his fitness he's really starting to become the new Forshaw. The championship lacks the quality of the Prem and when or if he gets a chance he's shown he can do well in this division. Thought we would miss Adams but what a signing Ampadu has been he's just slotted straight in you would think he's been here ages. Spence you just saw he had something even in a few minutes he was on the pitch and its such a shame he's went on the injury table. He would of been the perfect replacement for Ayling. As of Ayling and Coops Doc I don't mind keeping them this season for cover but Ayling is deffo on the decline. Not having a bad word for him coz he's played his part for this club but none of the 3 you mentioned should get new contracts Ayling, Coops, Dallas. no matter what division we play in next season. Ayling has been one of the weak links so far this season and the one chance watford did get yesterday was because of Ayling and he was fresh as he just came on. Coops can still do a job when asked but he's not a player I would like to carry back into the Prem. Dallas great to see him back but I very much doubt he will get back to the level he was at that's prob one of the worst injuries a player could ask for and he will always now be subject to injury. not to bothered about Greenwood and Perkins not being disrespectful but neither are good enough to start in our squad I would also add Gelhardt to that list. I'm liking Summerville more than Gnonto he knows how to beat a man just needs a bit more power on his shots. Gnonto is a decent player but my god does he like to whinge but to be fair he was getting lumps kicked out of him.
Big rumors that Byram will be starting at RB before long with Firpo at LB….. Also Joffy will be out in January
