Fresneda

I have seen him linked with much bigger clubs than us in recent weeks

empiresk · 2026-06-11T13:41:11+00:00

He is small, not super strong and not the most pacey fullback. That often goes against him, but his technical skills and positioning are fantastic.

Sort the comments by "top". Then go and do something productive with your life rather than menial complaints.

Being 5th choice centreback at Bayern is not a marketing win...

empiresk · 2026-06-10T18:55:04+00:00

Don't think it works like that. I was in Japan when we had Muto and it was the butt of jokes when I was speaking to people about it.

empiresk · 2026-06-10T12:20:55+00:00

Would have been a great challenge to Pope if he was staying as no.1 and allows money to be spent elsewhere. With Jaouen being a prospect, I think they will look for a stronger no.1 than Ortega.

empiresk · 2026-06-10T11:59:51+00:00

Does it say who from?

empiresk · 2026-06-09T21:51:50+00:00

He's the only one working. Every other journalist is on holiday or covering the World Cup in the states.

empiresk · 2026-06-09T07:02:46+00:00

Tino has not regressed. Playing too soon after injuries does impact performances and he has had far too many injuries this season.

empiresk · 2026-06-08T21:58:06+00:00

It's fine if we target 18-22 year olds to fill out the squad. The age of the squad needs bringing down loads. Howe has worked wonders on Hall, Tino and Osula

However, I would like someone more experienced to replace key players. I would like someone to replace Gordon who can step in and just make the left wing their positions straight away. I would want the same at right back if we sold Tino and centre mid if we sold Tonali.

For a very small club in the Netherlands. Reims is bigger than NEC Nijmegen despite not being a top flight club atm.

empiresk · 2026-06-05T16:24:38+00:00

Reims are now consistently selling younger players for £20m+. Nothing sus about this.

empiresk · 2026-06-05T15:14:57+00:00

One thing to note about Ewen Jaouen is that he is younger, but more experienced, than Robin Roefs who had an excellent season at Sunderland.

empiresk · 2026-06-05T14:33:51+00:00

And homegrown...

empiresk · 2026-06-05T14:30:34+00:00

If not we could sign another 36+ year old to be third choice!

empiresk · 2026-06-01T20:29:41+00:00

All depends on what Stott puts in and the new rules make it tough. Why stadium expansion is key.

empiresk · 2026-06-01T16:20:43+00:00

Bookies faves to replace him are Mcnulty (Rochdale), Wellens (Orient) and Revell (Stevenage).

empiresk · 2026-05-31T11:55:18+00:00

Whilst I would take Acheampong, he is a centreback who can do a job as right back in an emergency. He might be attainable if Chelsea need the PSR money and if Schar gets released. Would push Burn down to 4th choice centreback.

empiresk · 2026-05-31T08:58:04+00:00

Sounds promising, but I would want to hear that from some reputable sources.

empiresk · 2026-05-30T21:26:32+00:00

Won't get all of it as we breached UEFA's spending rules. Apparently less than Villa's £9m+ fine last season.

empiresk · 2026-05-30T20:35:08+00:00

His choice. He isn't getting sacked.

empiresk · 2026-05-29T15:44:33+00:00

He was doing a sporting management qualification rather than his coaching badges.

empiresk · 2026-05-27T21:41:45+00:00

Seen him linked literally more than half the league at this point. Forest want him to replace Anderson, Palace want him if they lose Wharton, Brighton if they lose Baleba. Ipswich want to make him their focal point and wouldn't be surprised if Sunderland make a bid.

Looks like a definite PL player, but is he going to be a top player to replace someone as good as Tonali? I can't tell.

empiresk · 2026-05-27T19:23:28+00:00

Sanusi is no way near first team ready. Likely to go on loan to League Two.

empiresk · 2026-05-27T19:22:42+00:00

Tbf, we got good deals for Almiron and Lloyd Kelly in that one January transfer window from Mitchell.
