Maybe their not as good as we thought or just not ready for the PL yet. Maybe when they are good enough if they ever are we’ll bring them back. Maybe that’s the plan? For where we want to be we need players ready now not in a couple of years! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

useless Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Kellyman is three years younger than Aaron Ramsey, Aaron is a better player than Kellyman now and was a better player when he was Kellyman's age, we haven't sold Aaron Ramsey and kept Kellyman, because Kellyman will make a bigger impact now, we've sold Aaron Ramsey because he needed Premier League football, Kellyman's at a completely different stage of his career, he's not even had his first loan yet, if he gets to Aaron's age and is good enough that another Premier League team want to pay ten million plus for him and we want to add a buy-back then he will be doing very well 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VILLAMARV Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Great stuff from the bench, good to see him back. Could be a big year for him. Lovely finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe their not as good as we thought or just not ready for the PL yet. None of our successful academy graduates were pulling up trees after a handful of games. Look back at the JJ and Grealish threads. Both had plenty of people saying they were poor/not ready/"dogshit" I'm hoping they do really well, but also get relegated, so we can buy them back on the cheap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M_Afro Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Having him, Diego and Alex back is absolutely massive. He was so good when he came on yesterday. He really seems to have added physicality and game intelligence over the past 6 months or so. He really is getting much more game involvement now too.

Classy, controlled, glides around the pitch. Usually the term is reserved for defenders but you hear it used for all kinds of players and even managers. I remember a Football Cliches podcast on the topic, a riveting conversation it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MWARLEY2 Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 Just been watching the game back. His passing is so underated. He ran across from right to left and then with his left foot totally split the brighton midfield with a perfect ball to Digne. And its not just the placement, its the tempo he does it at that is so important to getting us playing well. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
