He is more one of ours than zaniolo was He signed at 16, I count one of our own as someone who came through our youth teams (nothing to do with who they support), from a young age.

AV82 Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 Hindsight la-de-da but I wish we had Philogene in and around the squad. Our forward options on the bench being limited to Bailey and Traore is not it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what was reported at the time emery told him he would get game time with us and be a big part of the squad but he decided to leave for regular first team football. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister_a Posted November 22, 2023 Share Posted November 22, 2023 Interesting, a 15m buyback, only if we are in the same division as Hull. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted November 22, 2023 Share Posted November 22, 2023 Same as it was reported a few weeks back. Its also not really a buy back clause but think we can match a similar offer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted November 22, 2023 Share Posted November 22, 2023 (edited) The Hull chairman is being clever with his wording to make the deal seem more benificial from Hull point of view. He says the buyback is £15m if they're promoted, but that doesn't mean that there isn't another buyback for a different fee should they not be promoted. It's highly likely that there will also be another buyback option for a different fee should they not be promoted. Emery kept going on about it being important that we have control over his future, so we aren't going to leave it so our ability to buy him back depends on whether Hull get promoted or not, as we have no control over that.

useless Posted November 22, 2023 Share Posted November 22, 2023 (edited) There's a Blake Richard Philogene-Bidace of Spurs in the current England U15 squad. None of our players in there, but there will be another two camps with completely different squads in December and Januaryy Edited November 22, 2023 by useless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delighted for him he's doing exactly what he needed to when dropping down. Same as Archer did, show you're too good for the level. For us there's two elements at play: Conditions of the buy back Is he actually already ahead of Zaniolo and Bailey? Time will tell. He's no doubt on about a tenth of the wage of both so he already had a nice little advantage there. This could prove to be a bad error. Ideal scenario, he continues and we bring him back a better player, ready to challenge for a place in the XI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
