The club's tweet confirming the sale of Gyokeres to Coventry attracted 22 replies. I know we weren't massive then but that doesn't really suggest that very many supporters saw it as a huge mistake by the club. (I realise that not everyone is on Twitter/X...)
Agreed. Even if it is decided that he is no longer a fit for us he most certainly would be elsewhere and I'd have thought the fee should be north of £20m.
Had the dubious pleasure of the dance with Sky yesterday as 'discounts' are due to come off and the new price would be £180 per month without them for (2 boxes) Sky Signature, Sky Sports, Netflix, BB and SkyTalk. They said 'best price' was £117 which I said was more than I was prepared to...
Injuries, mainly. You can make up for a loss of form in individual players to an extent by using the squad but not when you don't have similarly capable replacements fit and available. There might be internal issues but that is guesswork so the tangible reason is injuries and the added burden...
