disconnect

It just makes a farce of the whole thing doesn’t it?! Do Birmingham have one of these dodgy sponsor deals too like Wrexham?

So how are Birmingham able to spend all this money? They signed a very average young striker last year for well over £10 million and now all this. Wouldn’t their revenue be quite low from the season in League One? Bit like Ipswich buying the league a few years back, seemed to have spent miles more than anyone else but not at risk of PSR?

6 goals in 16 MLS matches is probably around equal or slightly worse than what Downs has done in Bundesliga 2 (at a younger age), but 5 goals in 9 caps for USA is pretty decent (against mostly rubbish opponents). Let’s see!

Ryan Fraser to Rangers would be very believable. A manager who likes him, a big club in an easier league that will suit his ability - he could be a good player for them, rather than a bit part for us.

Sounded to me like "Here's a random Japanese player - he's left footed". Not really a glowing endorsement of who he is or that he was excited to have him there!

Zeneli looks pretty good and a realistic target. Just started getting caps for Sweden too, so must be pretty decent.

Didnt we sign Harwood-Bellis for around £20 million, not £15 million? If we were to sell (which we might if he says he wants to play Champions League!) then I think around £25-30 mill would allow us to sell. It would be leaving us pretty short at Centre Back though, especially with Bedders likely to leave along with ABK (and Stephens hopefully finally found out). Would we sign a replacement?

He already did a few times (in the premier league) before he got badly injured. Shame that happened and he hasn’t worked out

That was truly awful. As were some of the skills. A couple of good headers there though!

We'd want our money back if we were to sell. Was that article by any chance written by the chairman of Trabzonspor?

Took me a while to work out this was Jay Robinson. I would say the attacking midfielders / wingers currently are weaker without Sulemana and with one of Dibling or Fernandes almost certain to leave, along with possibly Fraser? Brooks was very good for championship level (and is doing it in the premier league) so we're a bit far off where we should be.

Weren't we linked with Luis Guilherme from West Ham? Hasn't done much since moving there at a young age, but was seen as a bit of a coup when they got him.

Onuachu had some decent appearances where he did look like a handful (and scored a few goals), but he doesnt have the natural fitness to play high intensity football. He would do a job next season to throw on and cause a bit of mayhem, but he'll almost certainly be gone and hopefully we'll have a pacy, fitter and physical striker to replace him with (not Ross Stewart)!

Pretty ineffective is being generous! I think he's scored something like 2 goals in 2 seasons.

I heard they were raffling off the club in the clubhouse after dinner
