2020/21 Bernard

....I doubt one correlates with the other, except financially. Ancelotti/Brands might or might not rate/want Josh King, i suspect we’ll know the answer to that soon.

If Carlo wants Josh King Moshiri will provide the money
As you say I doubt we have to sell Bernard to buy Josh King
If we are still in the mix come January I’d say we will spend again if the right players are available
Carlo wants Bernard here for some reason
Maybe cup games against lower division players or to rest James over December

 

[Carlito]

Surprised that he wasn't allowed to leave, unless they weren't willing to cover all of his wages.

Keeping him
For one game lol
More likely, we either wanted more money and would have needed to get someone else in.
And probably not enough time to do that.

Bernard Has no future he is on his way out

Where did I say one game
Actually grinning here that you responded to a post you half read

They wanted to buy him so obviously would have paid his wages in full
Maybe reduced wages but they would have paid in full

Super sub. All his fitness will allow but could be good coming off the bench.

You said maybe keeping him for cup games in December so we can rest James

He even brought Walcott on Saturday before Bernard, then sells him 2 days later

And December is a really tough month. So all our best players will be playing

Isn't his contract up next summer though?

August 2022.

I think that might have been just to show suitors he was fit. He hardly put himself about, but was probably part of the deal for Southampton to agree to take him.

The following year

I’d expect, given the 7m fee, they were willing.

 

[everton1953]

He is ideal for coming off the bench in injury time and plays at full belt for 4 minutes or so.

I like him. Glad the club is sticking with him.
