  1. Poor dribbling, linkup and retention doesn't seem to fit what Martin's aiming for imo.
  2. We better be keeping hold of KWP if we're selling Tino. 30M for Tino, that's either a serious comedown or someone got it seriously wrong when they talked about us asking for 50M so we'd get 30m. Not a fan of Bree as anything other than backup, looking OK in luton hoofball system doesn't for me translate to system we are signed up to.
  3. Again, when did Russia stop attacking Ukraine? They didn't attack Odessa and grain flowed freely whilst the deal was active so you could argue the agreement wasn't pointless. The UN have acknowledged there were obstacles to the Russian food/fertilizer elements that were a key part of the grain deal so Russia might be the one thinking any sort of agreement is pointless.
  4. Very depressing. Can't stand bednarek, really hoping he's got rid of. Interested to see us linked with Holgate, someone who seemed high potential but has fallen away. Think we need someone with some physicality too(DCC could offer that but seems like he's going to be a bust)
  5. Not convinced by edozie yet he had a trick(to beat a man) which was interesting but absolutely zero in delivery or shooting. hopefully he’ll develop into more this season.
  6. I’d be disappointed if we lost any of those 4. They feel like the players we should be building round not auctioning off if we have any ambition left. i’ve resigned Myself to jwp and lavia leaving, which at least should generate the much needed funds.( I expected kwp too but been very quiet on that front so maybe his stock is damaged.) I fully expect adams to leave as there’s no way the club will want to let him walk for free.
  7. Wasn't a fan of the signing but can't see beyond him starting as no1 this season, given we invested a lot in him and we've tonnes of other issues. He impressed at league 1 level, so hopefully that wasn't his ceiling and that he'll be better at championship rather than being dunked in at the top level with no experience.
  8. Not someone i've ever been particularly impressed by. Picking up players leicester don't think are good enough(otherwise why else would they be getting rid) to help them get promoted also feels rather odd.
  9. So whilst i agree you don't want to blow the bank on year 1 i also don't think you should be aiming for later years over year 1. I'd think statistics would suggest there are better odds of getting out quickly than hanging round as the financial advantage of parachute payments dissipates. History would also i think back up how dangerous it is to leave it to the 3rd year.
  10. I find that odd as its likely to be a false economy if true. Not getting promoted would cost the club a whole heap more. Sure they'll want to reduce the overall wage bill but recoup money rather than re-investing it seems unlikely to me and contrary to their messaging.
  11. Yeah that's how i see it. We're contractually in a strong position with him so why rush to sell this season when his value is depressed by the injury layoff when the potential if he's the player we think he is would be greater in a year's time.
  12. He didn't strike me as good on the ball either which would be a big concern if as reported martin wants to play a passing game.
  13. And i suppose Adam Armstrong is guaranteed to get 29 goals again because he did it at blackburn so we don't need to buy a striker Selling our 2 actual quality right backs to rely on someone who looked competent in a luton team that played a very different style seems nuts to me.
  14. Depending on a guy who was out of his depth last season seems nuts to me.
  15. Relegated teams don’t tend to flog everyone that is good and keep the dross either though.
  16. Maybe. I just don’t see the point in selling him unless it’s a crazy bid. I don’t see 30m as that.
  17. I’d be severely underwhelmed if our asking price for tino was 30m.
  18. I can’t see any logic in selling livramento, certainly not for that piddly suggested fee.
  19. I'd assume he would be looking to Premier League rather than another championship club. But then guess Fonte came down a division to us last time round so who knows.
  20. I'm assuming Adams is off given he's unlikely to sign a new contract. We need a real goalscorer. Just had a look at league 1 top scorers. See peterborough had the top goal scorer, 28yr old Jonson Clarke Harris. don't know much about him but his statistics seem pretty good (Scored 33 goals in league 1 in 20/21. Scored 12 for them as they got relegated from championship. Then scored 29 this season.)
  21. Cat people, really Kids identifying as cats? I've got just the remedy - but woke teachers who encourage this deluded nonsense won't like it | The Sun
  22. They wanted inexperienced people who wouldn't ask questions. They sacked the experienced engineer who raised red flags about the safety. The more you read about it the more cowboy operation it seems to have been.
  23. Sounds like they are trying it on.(trying to loan him with no real intention of buying)Can’t see why saints would accept unless he’s kicking up a stink.
  24. Western sources admitting heavy losses. Is just priming people for the next type of weaponry we're giving Ukraine.
  25. No we shouldn't, unless he's willing to sign an extension.
