I wonder if what we paid for Gilmour has any relevance to what we are prepared to sell him for. £15 million might sound low, but it’s still a £7 million profit on him, if I remember correctly. Which is a great bit of business if we can get a better replacement in.
Feels pointless sending Sarmiento out on loan again. Give him a chance to play himself into this team, and give him some first team minutes. If he doesn’t take his chance then sell him.
Exactly this. It works really well, regardless of whether you like the track or not in the heat of the moment after a win. Where as the stuff before the game is awful.
Yep. The people that wrote it must be absolutely loving life at the moment.
I think Praise You would be crap after the game personally. It's not upbeat enough.
Maybe if you came to a game at the Amex and saw us win you might change your mind, watching the 20,000 left in the stadium at the final whistle singing along.
It is absolutely insane that we seem to have outgrown players like Jeremy Sarmiento.
I’ve been going since 1989. I’m trying to think about how many seasons JS wouldn’t have been the first name on the team sheet in that time. Possibly for the two seasons we had Zamora, the first tim around...
I feel sorry for Jeremy. He’s a class player but I’m just not sure where he is going to break into this current, insanely good squad. I’d love him to make it with us, but if I were him I’d be looking at our squad asking myself if realistically I was going to become first choice over the 17 other...
Such a dickhead that guy. Always thought he was quite dislike-able when he played for us, and that takes some doing.
He’ll be plying his trade at some nothing Spanish team like Getafe or Osasuna once Chelsea get rid of him.
Presumably you are of the opinion that this can never change and he is the complete finished article as a player / human at 22? Best we ship him out then.
That's not the modern way, sadly. FH will get the same treatment when he leaves. It's embarrassing, but that seems to be where humans are in 2024. Going backwards.
Somebody (a very, very good source who knows him well) told me. Said it was the same for a lot of the younger players, they enjoyed the intensity to start with and when we were being successful, but when we started to struggle, the way RDZ was with them really ground everyone down, and that they...
