Would be a big shame to see him go. Should have been sent on loan in the summer if he wasn’t going to be a part of the first team plans, ideally for a two year loan like Marwood said, with a recall clause. As far as his potential, it’s always easier to predict a player won’t reach the top of...

I remember seeing an interview a few months back with SAF where he said that you have to trust your scouts. Based on recent years we just haven’t done that at all but have sought to appease the manager at that current time and/or buy based on reputation when the club sees an opportunity...

I know academy players train with the first team all the time but it seems like he’s been with them a fair bit in recent weeks. Interesting to see if he gets into a match day squad anytime soon. With the amount of injuries we’ve been getting he’s probably only 1 or 2 more away from having to be...

Yeah, really didn’t need to see this story, really wanted us to get him this summer…

I actually think he has the highest ceiling of the young midfielders that we have, although no doubt Mainoo and Hannibal are ahead of the curve currently. Surely can’t just let him spend another season just in the 21s whilst his contract runs down.

Most of the arguments against this move are logical but honestly I want us to make this happen. Looks like a genuine quality player with a high ceiling.

Hazard to Chelsea, Haaland and Bellingham to Dortmund, De Bruyne to City and Thiago to Bayern for me. Honourable mentions: Torres to Pool, Gundogan to City, Lucas to PSG, Ballack to Chelsea, Sneijder… This one too, big time. That Carrick guy was decent in the end.

Completely forgot about O'Connor! I would definitely shoehorn him into my team at left back over Fryers. Feel the same about Greenwood too, realistically should've put him in mine to be honest.

Tweet above explains it really but I wanted to see the teams you guys have. As it says, your personal favourites that you enjoyed the most, not necessarily the best. Mine is: Henderson Laird Tuanzebe Thorpe Fryers Rothwell Gomes Morrison Mitchell Januzaj Will Keane Subs: Mengi (between him and...

Well yes any team would struggle without a keeper in goal

You'd think surely one of Kobbie or Isak has to make the breakthrough at some point if they keep developing like they have been. Hopefully both do.

Probably my favourite of the midfield prospects that we have. He was hitting his stride towards the back-end of last year and he's looked even better since coming back from Norway. His previous senior experience is definitely starting to show. The exact type of player we've lacked for a number...

No need to worry about it now!

Imagine blaming Maguire. If he can't give Fred that pass there and expect him to deal with it then Fred shouldn't play another game for this club.
