Skipp's a difficult one because he's club trained. A swap for Eze loses us a CT spot and overloads the association trained quota.
I know very well that a player cannot be forced to leave a club before his contract ends. But that was not what I was saying - and I think most people got that.
Some were calling for Phillips to start in recent games. It doesn't work that way.
That may well be - not all interested clubs are necessary mentioned in the press.
Well, I heard that Dragsuin choose Spurs of Accrington because they did not have any good Rubik cubers to challenge him - unlike Spurs, when they signed Werner
Besides, Dragusin did put off by this advert about Accrington because of...
Accrington Stanley, Who Are They? - Wikipedia
Advert
The advert features two young Liverpool fans. One tells the other that Liverpool's then-star striker Ian Rush had told him that if he didn't drink milk, he would only be good enough to play for Accrington Stanley. The other fan asks, “Accrington Stanley, who are they?”, to which the first replies, “Exactly.”[3] According to Rice, Tottenham Hotspur were originally going to be named. However, Tottenham objected, so Accrington Stanley were chosen instead, [6] as they were a non-League team at the time,[6] and were thought of as a more obscure team.[7] David Lloyd, a non-executive director of Accrington Stanley, said in an interview in 2012 that the advert earned the club £10,000.[8]

If in the summer we offloaded Skipp and PEH, and bought Eze and added Devine/Donley, that would be great. Sarr, Biss and Bentancour gives us enough at no.6, and then Bent, Sarr, Eze, Lo Celso, Devine/Donley, Madders and Kulu for the two 8/10 positions.
Great for fans who have been the victim of all this money madness.
You joke, but if there is something coming, it is a weapon to use. Players want stability usually. They don't like moving home and moving country etc every time a team spits them out.
Maybe Levy was right after all on the upcoming FFP enforcement
This could be the difference between being viewed as a stingey investor vs a forward thinking visionary that saw this coming
Probably best to think of it as 19 outfield non-club trained players and 2 keepers plus a club trained keeper. Far better to up the quality of the 19 and use them flexibly than to damage Skipp's career any further by hanging on to him as our 20th choice player. In turn, that lets those 19-21 year old players come through and either establish themselves or in turn move on.
Exactly. He's bet the lot on this. I read the Swiss ramble papers on City and suddenly saw the game. The blokes been playing 4D chess whilst everyone else was playing checkers. Let's see if it comes off. Despite the stadium build we are in a really sound position. Now here's the note of caution through either luck or judgement we have landed where we are FFP, Ange, stadium....But the last step will take big balls. Bravery and a willingness to take that final opportunity that shows real commitment and MONEY..Levy's record on this is everythingMaybe Levy was right after all on the upcoming FFP enforcement

Sound
John Thomas
accuse him of so Juries out....
Everything I've seen of Timo Werner so far he just comes across as a really down to earth nice bloke.
Maybe Levy is a clever cookie. This is our time to capitalise on this and take the club to the next level. Everything seems to be in place.
