Shame to see any talent leaving but, if it's not a pathway to our first team, then wish him success. We can at least hopefully use that success to show other prospects the foundations we offer. And hopefully some of those will stay. And nice it's not just Chelsea or someone hoovering up talent here.

He should go on to have a perfectly good career. It just isn't going to be with us. If he learns from his time with us, then there's nothing stopping him doing really well. As much off field/ mentality as on field. I'm sure we all wanted him to do well. And he's got the talent, and at a young age. That was a bin fire of a season, when we went down. People under such a lot of pressure will act differently, and not always wisely. They will look at their place and their future and make calls on that. Whatever was going on with him personally, not least his injuries, we've brought in replacements. As the amortisation impacts the contract, we'll either loan or hopefully get our asking price.

We're lucky we have posters who point out a cult when they see one. Oh, wait that's not cult they've said... 🙂

Also a prediction of the meltdowns on this thread today. 🙂

Well said. Forums posters that share ITK information are so often on the receiving end of some awful abuse. As you say, caught between people keen for any information to those hating and questioning the messenger. Considering the sensitivity of that information, it's no bad thing to have a screen making a hint available, but not blatantly shouting it out. It's an interesting balance being approached here. Not all ITK knowledge, although true at the time, comes to fruition. Considering the CoT hit rate, they should also get some credit for quality control of the information they have shared.

Palmer, I think.

He's had so little to work with. Very sharp.

Watkins!!!!!

Foden had been a mobile, hungry player out there.

Yeessss....but nooooo....

Whew! and over from the corner.... Whew again

Like some earlier games, England struggling to pass through a compacted midfield. Without the space, they aren't making enough movement, to shift the Dutch out of shape. Foden looking frustrated by it.

After the Netherlands start, I was a bit worried. But England the hungrier of the two, and stronger in the challenge. Some nice crossfire switches, and Bellingham and Foden really mobile. Trippier obviously not the/ or his best out left. More of the same second half (maybe getting Shaw on if fit enough)

Depay off a plus (cue sub causing all sorts of problems)

Wow shot from Foden. Getting a lot of joy tonight and centrally. Either would have made for great goals

Solo close...

Get in!!!!

Wow. That totally ruined Unkel's hindsight based chat, when it got referred. A bit surprised at it being awarded.

Hecks. A lively Netherlands start undoing England was always a possibility. An early cracking goal and England already with work to do.

Perhaps City have a youth keeper to sell them too. 🙂
