baffling isn't it ijj

If someone came in with a big bid why not? It won't be this summer but in the next few years for sure. He's one of the few saleable assets on this team maybe Digne and Richarlison have value too.

Turner , simonsen, Wright, Joel ... and now Pickford ... we are shocking when it comes to keepers. Joel was the best signing from all of those listed , that tells a lot

Joel?? You are joking surely ??

 

[Nyhus]

People actually thinking we’d sell Pickford is doing my head in.

We won't, but we should

 

[ijjysmith]

We won't, but we should

Maybe. But finding a buyer for how much our board would actually want for him would be impossible.

Just add him to the list of players we have that will be really hard to get rid of.

Youre saying we dont sign champions league players...

I have no idea what that means lol

it means that players currently playing in the champions league wont be coming here..

and we don't have a track record of poaching champions league players from other clubs

we do attract misfits or players at champions league clubs but don't get games.

so when I read through these suggestions in here, players like fekir or ndombele etc etc its just laughable

 

[PhilRegan]

Anyone fancy 'Batman' after his loan spell is over?. Mean't to be available for 40mil.

You mean at this stage of the competition or in general as theres a lot of poor teams who qualify from countries and im confident we could get their players...

I think last summer was interesting because

Pickford, Digne, Gomes, Bernard could have joined champions league teams...

Also of course Mina joined us instead of Lyon which is the club Ndombele and Fekir play for...

If they were so amazing he would have joined them.

For some players such as Ndombele or Aouar they may feel we are a step forward before taking the leap to a top side down the track.

The same thing happened with Michael Essien who joined Lyon from Bastia before his big move to Chelsea. We were after him when he was at Bastia.

It may make more sense for Ndombele to join us first before going to an even better team.

He seems to play well one game (stats wise) and then a poor match the following week.

Watching him before he seemed massively overrated to me.

I would hope we go for 'Tosun type signings'. Obviously not of the same calibre but left field players who Brands feels can step up and push us up a level as opposed to Walsh purchases.

We have to hope brands works some magic.
