2021/22 Yerry Mina

[BigDuncTributeBand]

I said nothinhg as to a good position I was responding to the unwarranted criticism of Brand regarding this matter. What do you see out of interest?

Ah, Brands, sorry. Well, as I said, we’ve left ourselves in a bad position and it’ll be even worse come the summer. Don’t think that’s even remotely controversial.

We’re in a self induced FFP nightmare at the moment, far too many diddies that we can’t sell for anything like what we paid for them. Basically just letting their contracts run down until we can get their wages off the books.

That being the case, we can’t let the few sellable assets that we do have, players we can redeem something like what we paid for them or heaven forbid, make a profit on, get into the final year of their contracts.

He either needed to sign a new contract this summer or be sold so we could recognise something close to his value.

Our best defender by a mile and has been for at least two seasons now.

Big Mick Keggers has at least been on the pitch.

We gave the player a 5 year contract. What else could Brands have done?

Ask him to sign a new one and if he didn’t want to, sell him while we could still get a decent fee for him.

Kudos for keeping going with this completely on your own.

Which is what he will do in the Summer.

Dont make me get the polls out again.

No one is arsed about them.

How do you know we are not actively trying to do that now? Or haven't been for the past 12 months. We did it with Digne.

Selling players in the last window wasn't easy. Few teams around Europe outside the EPL have any money due to covid.

If there was no such thing as Tom Davies, big Yerald would be my favourite player.

Does everything with a smile on his face and takes no bs.
Lots of love for the big man

That's your answer for everything isn't it Nigel.

I actually agree with this, Mina looks to have gone up a level this season though. Looking like the player I thought we’d signed.

I’d like to think over the last 12 months or so Brands has had conversations about renewing - I don’t think he’s that incompetent.

My point was it’s getting harder and harder to get players to sign new contracts. They hold all the cards when they get to the last 18/12 months of their contract. Why would they sign a new contract at that point? If you’re their agent you’ll be saying wait until the summer and look at the options - other clubs will be saying sit tight and we’ll sign you on a free - money saved on transfer fee will bump up your wages and you’ll get a hefty signing on fee.

If we can’t get a player, who we could actually sell for some value, to commit to a new contract when he has two years left then he needs to be sold. Beyond that point the chances of us either getting a decent fee or him signing a new contract diminishes.
