  1. To add to the how much does a striker cost, Everton are in talks with Villarreal over their France Under-21 international striker Thierno Barry. The 22-year-old, who scored 11 goals in La Liga last season, has a release clause of €40m (£34.4m), but Everton are attempting to negotiate a lower fee.
  2. Oh, players come with receipts now? 28 day refund or exchange?
  3. All part of a jigsaw puzzle putting together the team, just hope the club commits rather than compromises on targets. Also hoping that we can keep the decent talent if the focus is YHPWP this window. Big expectations on Still to create a promotion chasing squad as well if this is the direction the club are taking.
  4. It’s happened twice which is enough for players and staff to start legal proceedings, however, I can see the players and staff don’t want to force the issue as it’s not the best way to leave a club to go elsewhere. Also Rohl was certainly of interest, whether it was the compensation and/or Still’s availability to become first choice is difficult to say.
  5. Fulham working on Romulo deal Latest from Sky Sports News' Dharmesh Sheth and Lyall Thomas: Fulham are working on a deal to sign striker Romulo from Goztepe. Their opening offer for the 23-year-old, worth around £13.6m (€16m) plus add-ons, was rejected. Talks remain ongoing between the two clubs. The forward line is Fulham’s priority this summer, especially wingers, and a new young striker is also something they are looking to do. The club have no desire to sell striker Rodrigo Munizamid interest from Leeds.
  6. No Quarshie? YHBTI
  7. I cannot imagine he’ll stay long if Will Still doesn’t think he’s up to it. Still just gives me the impression he won’t suffer fools and will expect the best from players and coaches alike all of the time.
  8. Sky Sports will broadcast every match from the opening rounds of the Championship, League One and League Two live next season, with most kicking off at 3pm on Saturday. The EFL starts a fortnight before the Premier League so the blackout at that time is not in place.
  9. Danny Rohl will be expensive to prise away from Wednesday - can Leicester afford the millions to payoff RvN and compensation to Wednesday? Less to spend on the squad. Rohl certainly hasn’t shown to be possession based tactically.
  10. Why don’t you believe what he says? It doesn’t make sense to sell the keystone club unless they have earmarked another for the SR group of clubs. But why move house when so much has been done.
  11. Wednesday can sign loans and frees only. It will go to appeal, so like shortened.
  12. If he’s seen as a player that could reach premier league then it doesn’t make sense.
  13. I can imagine Sheffield United recruitment will be continuing to look at young hungry players (like everyone else). But the new owners were happy enough to give Wilder a three year contract in December. Bizarre. They have already recruited two young hungry players last season. Total appearances of zero.
  14. He was there. Doesn’t seem to be able to finish a season where ever he goes! Seems to focus on defence and high press.
  15. Bristol will appoint Gerhard Struber (ex Koln).
  16. Google AI isn’t inaccurate, it’s probably biased and can be misleading without knowing the bias. It’s pulled the data from various sources, as always it’s not up to AI to verify the accuracy of the source data. No idea what capology uses and what verification method (if any) are employed.
  17. Too many to mention at various golf clubs when tournaments were on when working for PGA over the summer. Only bad experience was with Bruce Forsyth, moaning because I ran over his foot with a golf buggy while giving Seve a lift… how we laughed!
  18. Sol Campbell, high street in Hertford, just before his move to Arsenal, how ever long ago that was!
  19. U21 euro champ ends on the 28th June so Edwards likely to miss some preseason if England get to the semifinals/final.
  20. May have been Sunderland with Jack Rodwell and his £70k a week contract with no relegation clause.
  21. If true that the transfers were made solely due to AI modelling, then that’s a huge risk. Of course we have no idea as to what the AI model was trained to do (Brighton do well with theirs in their recruitment process) or the amount of any human interaction in the player selection. They will certainly be players to watch out for as well as the AI chosen Manager to replace Wilder (mad Nate the second)!
  22. Hull City appointed Sergej Jakirovic as their head coach on a two-year contract this week.
  23. Starts on the bench tonight for England U21s against Czech Republic U21s
  24. Plays CB, seems to be a bit of a leader too, which is exceptional for a 15 year old playing in the U18s. Didn’t sign pro for Saints when he turned 16, so of course other clubs have come in. Arsenal and Aston Villa were also chasing him. don't know the details of the deal, usually there is a sell on clause but will be a few years before first team appearance and possible sale.
  25. Hard to say how much Wood got out of playing in the Premier League, certainly a different experience than Edwards’ loan spell in the Championship. Let’s see how the preseason goes, don’t want to discount either.
