Kovar is likely being sold, back to Prague.

Can't imagine we'll get much of a fee off Prague. Kovar's reputation is on the up. You'd think we'd extend his loan, let him get his CL experience and try to flog him after he comes with the CL Experienced premium attached to his name.
But he is playing so well
That’s why he may be sold. As a backup we need someone who will sit on the bench wellBut he is playing so well

I don’t understand why, but I’m genuinely more excited about signing this guy we’ve never heard of than Onana. Maybe I know nothing or maybe I’m just weird.
Uninformed optimism?I don’t understand why, but I’m genuinely more excited about signing this guy we’ve never heard of than Onana. Maybe I know nothing or maybe I’m just weird.
What tier is Marco Molla?
He's "I'm tiered of it Robbie" tier.
The Teles fee should cover it.
Because he's a blank slate untarnished by detailed observation for you to project upon your fantasies of goalkeeping perfectionI don’t understand why, but I’m genuinely more excited about signing this guy we’ve never heard of than Onana. Maybe I know nothing or maybe I’m just weird.
His passing looks incredible on youtube but it is easy to take those risks with your passing in the Japanese league.
Sounds like he could slot in for cup games
He has the coolest name Ive seen in a while.
Yeah Iron Lion Zion is a Bob Marley tune and surname that is a famous car and bike brand
If his name was John Mitsubishi I bet you wouldnt.I don’t understand why, but I’m genuinely more excited about signing this guy we’ve never heard of than Onana. Maybe I know nothing or maybe I’m just weird.
What is exciting is that this is a real ETH signing. Bringing in an absolute unknown kid who is a perfect fit for his style, and (hopefully) developing them into a world class player. If we can genuinely demonstrate to the 17/18 year old wonderkids that we are the perfect place for them to learn and have a route to the first team, and we start winning things with one of the best managers in the business, we will quickly return to our place at the top table, competing for PL and CL.I don’t understand why, but I’m genuinely more excited about signing this guy we’ve never heard of than Onana.

That’s a good story, Can are pretty interesting.I once got a shout to do a gig with Damo Suzuki in my city in Ireland. I’d never heard of him or Can at that point. I thought he was going to be at least half Irish with a name like DamoThe message was something like Damo Suzuki needs a pickup band for tonight would you play guitar? I was like sure what’s the Craic with it? It’s just a jam and see what happens. Free/noise/art thing? Sounded like something I’d never done and then I embarrassingly kept calling him Damo as in Damien all night until the gig was over
It’s ダモ in Japanese, which in English sounds like the ‘da’ sound from ‘dagger’ and the ‘mo’ sound from ‘mokasine’, if that makes sense.
On the subject of saying names wrong, many moons ago I once had to spend a few days in hospital in Japan. There was a nurse that was assigned to look after me (she could speak good English). I’m really bad with names (forget them straight away in any language) but this time I thought I’d make a special effort to remember her name.
Before I went in for my stay we had a meeting so she could explain everything that was going to happen. She introduced herself as Chigusa. I kept saying it over and over and over in my head and tried to use it at any opportunity. ‘Yes Chigusa’, ‘I understand Chigusa’, etc… When she had finished talking to me I said ’Thanks Chigusa’. When we said our goodbyes, of course I said ‘Bye Chigusa’.
When Chigusa had got out of earshot my wife (Japanese) looked at me with a... you’re such and idiot kind of face and said ‘Why did you keep calling her that the whole time?’, I replied ‘That was her name'. ’No it wasn’t’ she said. ‘Well, what was I calling her then?’. ‘You kept calling her chibusa’. ‘What does chibusa mean?’. ‘Breast’...
I learnt a new word that day and I’ve never pronounced Chigusa (a fairly common girls name here) wrong again.
Sounds like you were struggling with the Bee Gees

Well that is not contradictory at all!!
It’s not. It’s just that it’ll take six months for Urawa to clear the organisational issues
Anyone know why his parents were located in one of the most culturally backwards parts of the entire world when he was born, Little Rock, Arkansas?
Little Rock gave us Bill Clinton - he was certainly forwards, in a manner of speaking
Clear organisational issues = sign a replacement keeper!It’s not. It’s just that it’ll take six months for Urawa to clear the organisational issues
Wouldn’t be against him having another 6 months of regular football.
We need a backup goalkeeper. Heaton wants to join Luton, Henderson wants to join Forest, Kovar wants to be a starter.
Bishop wants to join Sunderland.
We might need to pick up a free agent, what was that Spanish guys name again?
Arnau Tenas? Just released from Barca's academy? A bit of a short arse tbh.
We've spent a lot of time on his fantastic last name, Suzuki, but Zion's first name is pretty awesome too.
Keylor Navas on a Victor Valdes deal?
Yea the combination is one of the coolest names I've heard in football recently
He is not getting that...he is their reserve gk
Is this dead? Gone pretty quiet….
Yes he wants to stay and play as first choice
That’s bad news with Bishop on his way out, and Luton still hovering around Heaton. Hope we can still move Hendo out at least.
I doubt it was ever the idea to get him for a backup keeper. I assume we were going to loan him out immediately.That’s bad news with Bishop on his way out, and Luton still hovering around Heaton. Hope we can still move Hendo out at least.
