Yeah I agree, but that's one of the most fundamentally important things for fans tbf. It's essentially our religion.
-
To them, yes, and I understand that but we're not just a pair of trainers to the fans.
-
Yeah, I agree 100%. I accept it for what it is but I still don't like hearing the club talked about like a product.
-
Working in both football and England is a new experience for him, so it's a learning curve. I know it's necessary in this day and age but I really hate hearing about 'our brand'
-
OK, I like it. But just so you know, I'm waiting for that patent to expire and the day it does... YOINK

Doo doo doo, Baris Alper Yilmaz Done. Pay me.

He learnt from the physicality of the prem and the knocks he took because that's what good players do.
-
Yeah, I think so too. I have a feeling that the plan will be Torres - Mings - Konsa - New RB next season - with the RB taking the 'Moreno' role as we switch from back 3 to back 4 dependent on possession.
-
I would hope we do a deal where Archer doesn't come back. I don't think we're going to get as much for him and I don't think he has a role to play for us.

Versatile, fast, strong by the looks of it - so could well fit in the 'Moreno' role
-
Yeah and vice-versa - he'll only be wanting to go to a CL club, you'd think.

It also depends on the club selling and their particular situation. Norwich are more established as a club that doesn't sell their players on the cheap than Boro. They might see Rowe as being a player to get them up again (if they don't manage it this season) and that would be more valuable than the 25m or whatever they'd get for him.

It really depends on what we've got to work with come the summer. CL qualification could well be the difference between the two options.

That doesn't seem to matter that much these days. Rogers cost 8m up front going to 15m. Rowe would be the bones of 30m, you'd imagine.

I'm not sure you really do
-
It's not so much greedy as unrealistic. There are so few clubs, if any, that can really do that and it's nigh on impossible to have 2 players of comparable quality in every position.
-
Not a Rogers-type signing because he'd cost far more. Of course we want signings that fit right in and don't cost very much but they're very much the exception and not something that we should expect when we're shelling out relatively small amounts.

Top assist man in the league now - unbelievable. Superb player.
-
Looked like he was fouled on the replays tbh but VAR didn't think so.
-
Lovely ball for the Rogers goal.
-
Definitely need to upgrade on him this summer. He's not a bad player by any stretch but he doesn't have the composure required to play the way we need him to, sadly.
-
At least the SiGN sCoTt pArK3r lot have something new to get on. I swear he was the bones of 40 and people were still blabbering on about him.

Fair enough - but wages are an important consideration when you're talking about signings and squad planning, which is what we discuss a lot on this forum.
