Indy 3,301 Posted September 27, 2020 No point as we have no control, but today shows that Farke will probably have to do without them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CANARYKING 639 Posted September 27, 2020 Players have all the power and no loyalty anymore. It’s all about money, if they want a move that can force one by giving up BUT still get paid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Angry 1,563 Posted September 27, 2020 Slavery was banned 200 years ago. If a player wants to leave, the length of his contract only makes a difference to the amount we get for him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tetteys Jig 830 Posted September 27, 2020 so we are paying the salaries of Drmic, Leitner, Trybull, Buendia and Cantwell for them all to not play even though they are all fit and good enough at this level... real great planning there... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Pants 4,250 Posted September 27, 2020 Important couple of weeks coming up. We all saw how toothless we are in midfield and we'll need to address that. I'm sure Webber has irons in the fire. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nutty nigel 7,539 Posted September 27, 2020 This is the problem with having games before the window closes. Farke made the point well in his presser yesterday. And about how well Max has handled it. If there's blame then it should be with the powers that be who allow the window to remain open a month into the season. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Premier League voted to close the window, sensibly, before the season a couple of years ago but have unfortunately been forced back into it because of the disadvantage it gave them against the other big European sides. UEFA should implement a rule that the European window should close before any of the major leagues start their season, which would probably be a week into August, as opposed to August 31.

Jim Smith 2,322 Posted September 27, 2020 We actively want to sell (the mask has slipped today) and we seem to want to create a rift with Buendia so they can get less grief from the fans when they do it. Webber has form for this. I am not happy at all about today’s events and I don’t just mean the result. We played well but Webber should look very carefully at that game and what happens when you don’t have those extra bits of quality at your disposal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't quite buy that one DoubleN, before the window you could lose any of your players at any time until close to the end of the season. Of course you could replace them as well. Its the least suitable if there is a window of course. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Canaries north 151 Posted September 27, 2020 I hate the people saying they are on long contracts. As said it only helps get a better price as you are further away from the player leaving for nothing. Any player who plays well in the premier League but gets relegated what ever the team will be pushing for a move. If villa went down grealish would be gone. If West Ham had gone down then Rice would be gone. Us Bournemouth and Watford are all trying to get out the players who want to go for the most money possible while trying to get a settled team together. The start of the season will be difficult for all three of us as most other teams in the league will already have a settled team bar 1 or 2 changes. So far none of us have looked great despite having better players on the pitch than our opponents. It's a long season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Indy 3,301 Posted September 28, 2020 Whatever the truth is, it’s not great position to be in, get this window shut! Imagine the worst and selling all five, what have we got left? Krull Rupp (or whoever), Gibson, Zimmermann, Quintilla McCliean, Skipp Hernandez, Steipermann, Planchette, Hugill With a very limited bench option. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is utterly pointless. There could well be several players who really don’t want to be here! The only safe Covid habitat for players to remain in employment and not take salary hits is the premier league, and top European leagues, but unfortunately we are EFL, which we all know is in great danger of falling apart. Only needs one championship club to fall, and that will open the floodgates. This Govt are not going to bale out football, it cannot afford too in my humble opinion. so where would your allegiance lie? Not in the EFL where your employment and livelihood could well be in great danger! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
