Mate can we just sometimes look away from stats. His game is excellent where he hurts players with his aggressive movement. He’s an all action type. Someone on here mentioned during the euros he had a similar style to dirk Kurt that played with Liverpool which was a cracking assessment. He’s good at everything and will still score a few especially in our system. Deki and and Johnson have similar numbers but the game breaks down with them most of the time. Fucking football world is nuts as all people look at are stats. Any numpty can do that. Use your eyes and see a player not numbers.
Your basing that on the Euros though. Many players have good international tournaments but are average at best at club level.
 
I've read his high wage demands are putting clubs off.
We could offer to garnish his salary in what would be the final year of his contract with us if we really wanted him off the books, I suspect valuation will be a sticking point in any potential sale of GLC because Levy will be looking at the circa £30m we paid for him and the fact he's a regular for Argentina when factoring his value, rather than looking at his horrendous injury record and sub-par performances when he finally does pull on a white shirt.
 
Barnsley finished 6th last season and lost in the play-offs. High scorers but concede a lot. 82-64

Barnsley FC have today announced the arrival of Darrell Clarke as their new Head Coach, with the former Cheltenham Town boss signing a two-year contract at Oakwell with a club option of a third.23 May 2024

 
All this talk of who is coming in and who is going out, of whether we have too many midfielders or not enough strikers, of who should be kept and who should be sent out on loan is all very interesting.

But the real question at the heart of this thread, and the one yet to resolved is the one that is keeping me awake at night, is whether or not Sean Astin is famous. Can we please pause all transfer discussion until this crucial debate is settled. Please, and thank you.

Please stop, we are finally geting rid, I don't give a fuck if it's 20, 10 or 5 million, the important is to move players we don't want.
Obviously needs to be balance between getting a decent fee and moving on players not in managers plan. In the past we have got this wrong holding onto players because we didn't get the fee we wanted. It costs you more in the long run- you miss out on players and you don't progress/improve .
 
So we've raised about 30m through Rodon, PEH and Parrott.
We've also got some high earners off the books this year (Dier, Perisic, Ndombele).

Spent only 40m on Gray so far.

Balance sheet is looking stronger than ever. I expect:

- Gykores: 70m
- Eze: 60m
- LB: 30m
