surprised we are not in for 'Morocco captain Romain Saiss has announced he is leaving English Premier League side Wolverhampton Wanderers after six years.' he 32-year-old is out of contract and no agreement has been reached over a new deal. Was on a massive £30k pw there by all accounts and wanted an increase BIOGRAPHY Capable of playing in defence or midfield, Romain Saiss has been a key member of the Wolves group since his arrival in 2016. Saiss originally joined Wolves from Ligue 1 side Angers in August 2016 and has gone on to play more than 150 times for the old gold. Previously Saiss had spent his entire career in France, initially with Valence, Clermont and Le Havre. The Moroccan international then enjoyed a season at Angers, making 35 appearances, which earnt him a move to Wolves. It was in his second season at Molineux where Saiss came to the fore alongside Ruben Neves, as Wolves earned promotion to the Premier League. After representing Morocco at the 2018 World Cup, Saiss cast his hand on the top flight and played in a back three regularly under former head coach Nuno Espirito Santo. Always a threat from set pieces, the international captain scored three times during the 2019/20 season, against Sheffield United, Tottenham Hotspur and Brighton & Hove Albion. https://www.wolves.co.uk/teams/mens-first-team/romain-saiss/

I wholly agree with the bolded sentence - excellent player and puts its about also

and as if by magic the shopkeeper appeared https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11667/12616652/aaron-wan-bissaka-manchester-united-open-to-offers-for-defender-in-summer-transfer-window

For all the people hoping for Lingard (probably not many)

Leicester brought Maguire from Hull for £12.5m and Kante from Caen for £8m 👍 👍

While I agree somewhat Already Covered by @Chez but we signed Redmond and Austin and for all we know we may have been in for more from other relegated side (pretty sure we were in for Maguire and Vydra from Hull when they went down, and Norwich full backs Godffrey and Aarons + Buendia, did we also not look at Ake and Brooks when Bournemouth went down?). TBH - I normally start the thread or update it as its a good discussion point

Though I would like all of them - cant see us getting any of them 😞

I can't He has always said he doesn't want to work under a DoF type of Club - that's what Watford are 🤷‍♂️ Everton or Newcastle would have been a great job for him

https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/premier-league-set-to-introduce-five-substitutions-rule-after-u-turn-from-clubs-p9g7jn8z9 Premier League clubs are set to make a U-turn tomorrow and agree to five substitutions per team being permitted from next season. The issue is due to be voted on again by the top-flight clubs at a Premier League stakeholders meeting in London after several attempts over the past two years to increase the number of replacements were defeated. Although the bigger clubs were in favour, there was strong opposition from the smaller and mid-sized teams, who believed it would give an advantage to the squads which have greater strength in depth. The Premier League is the only major league in Europe to restrict the number to three but club sources say there is high confidence that there is now enough support for it to be increased to five, with a total of nine players allowed on the bench. The decisive factor has been the International FA Board (Ifab), the game’s law-making body, making the five-subs option a permanent rule. Recent meetings of Premier League club captains and managers have also debated the issue and there has been broad support among them for the increase. There has also been a lot of data collected from the other leagues around the world which have been using five replacements over the past couple of seasons. The vote is expected to be taken “in principle” and confirmed at the clubs’ summer meeting in June. The Professional Footballers Association has also been pushing hard for the increase. Maheta Molango, its chief executive, said English teams would be in a weaker position in important European matches if their players were more tired compared to those at continental clubs. Speaking in Doha before the Fifa Congress, Molango said: “Our position is quite clear. It is a situation that should never have been a debate in the first place because it’s a player welfare issue. “In the global market if all the other leagues have five subs and we have three that means we will be in a worse position when it comes to the big games. We want need to start thinking more collectively and think that if our teams are thriving in Europe that is a good thing.”

Everton

Is there a website that shows our league position in a graph each week over a number of years? Would like to look at the last few years or something and see how each season progressed. you can see where we were in January against where we finished across a number of seasons, to see how many times we've had an opportunity and blown it. Have a look at this if you can be bothered, can interactively see league position on each date over the last decade https://www.footstats.co.uk/index.cfm?task=team_progress @TWar

Stolen shamelessly from somewhere else Here is a few to start
