I saw a program on Sky where one of their directors was being interviewed. He said their strategy is to pay comparatively less wages on a weekly basis but offer long-term contracts to players for stability.Quote:

Wow, his career has really gone off the rails since leaving Celtic. A guy that was being linked with Spurs is how playing for a team that has just been promoted from League 1.Quote:

Playing devils advocate here but is Kyogo’s move to Birmingham really a bad thing for him…? If he does well then he is in the perfect shop window for a potential bigger move.Quote:

On the other hand… bad Kyogo, Nectar take note 😂
Birmingham aiming for straight back to back promotions and one of the most exciting projects in the game right now.Quote:

I know how you feel, I have the odd Sunday like that.....hungover from the Saturday and the thought of work on the Monday. Don't worry, a good fry up and a bit of rest and you will be right as rain again :agree:Quote:

It's as bad a climb down in recent years as I can remember in my opinion.
Who caresQuote:

With the money being chucked at them it is not really surprising they are doing well.Quote:

Wonder if they might regret signing as many foreign players as they have. Might work for them just always think it's a risk if they don't gel.
22 years of age, not sure how long he's got on his contract at Sunderland, looks like he's had a bit of first team football playing for Sunderland and Portsmouth last season. Sounds like he could be decent.Quote:

Owen Bevan linked with Peterborough.
🔴⚪️Aberdeen have the option to sign Adil Aouchiche from Sunderland for a club record of £1.5 million.
🇫🇷The French youth cap joins on a season’s loan.
✍️The Dons are still waiting to see if they can land fellow Frenchman Moussa Soumano from Ajaccio.🔴⚪️
Genuinely not bothered. Whole Bevan situation has been a fiasco from start to finish and obviously not meant to be. Hopefully Bournemouth have someone else lined upQuote:
