messi11 Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 He's still alive. Generational talent. How long is the contract tho? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHY Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Was he injured last season? He looked a talent but was off the radar for much of last season. Get him out on loan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheepyvillian Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Great news to see him pledging his future to the club. Always liked what I've seen, also has a good pedigree. I think he could become a really decent, holding midfielder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post sir_gary_cahill Posted July 1, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 1, 2022 (edited) Great player this lad (they all are SGC! You lot said it about Jack Grealish, remember?) Grealish went on to become the largest transfer fee we’ve ever produced in the history of the club. I am happy that we’ve secured Bogarde, he has an awful lot of ability, with him and Iroegbunam recently signing a new 5 year contract recently and I think Josh Feeney has also signed for us professionally (although I can’t find anything about it) we potentially have 3 great players for the future there to name but a few Edited July 1, 2022 by sir_gary_cahill 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 Hadn't heard much of him so was wondering if he was rated or was going to be released. Gi as this answers that. He seems to have gained some mass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anywhere else on the pitch a youngster loses the ball or makes a mistake and it can often be covered by a teammate. A centre back makes a mistake and it can lead to a goal against you. Look at Cahill at us, he’d looked class on loan and making the odd appearance. But he wasn’t trusted to start often and so he left. One of the worst decisions ever, but managers don’t have that trust in young cbs. As for Bogarde, glad he’s signed, hopefully he’s past his injury issues and goes on to fill his potential with us.

Yeah you’re right, it’s is a very unforgiving position so managers do tend to shy away from blooding youth there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think we should put too much pressure on these players considering their age 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
