to Chelsea?! wow knew he was leaving but not to them. Very odd signing imoTyler Adams from Leeds to Chelsea is all but a done deal so can see them really stepping up their interest now
COH is a 10. He doesn’t have the passing or defensive ability to play as an 8. He’s not going start spreading play like Hamer does either. He’s great as a 10 because of his movement and passes in tight areas around the box, 1-2’s etc and his work rate. You move him deeper and it will be a detriment to the good effect he has on the team.
Although a very low bar Adams was one of Leeds better players last seasonto Chelsea?! wow knew he was leaving but not to them. Very odd signing imo
I don’t think he has the engine or the defensive instincts to be a box to box 8I would fancy Palmer to do a job next to Sheaf when COH is fit for the 10 role.

Now I like Palmer but I don't think he could play there.I would fancy Palmer to do a job next to Sheaf when COH is fit for the 10 role.
Is Tyler Adams better than Hamer ?Tyler Adams from Leeds to Chelsea is all but a done deal so can see them really stepping up their interest now
YesIs Tyler Adams better than Hamer ?
Doesn’t have the strength or passing range for CM IMO.
Agree - I don't want to lose what he offers at 10, was imagining a situation where we don't have Hamer but still have all our other current midfielders, and who could do a job if needed.COH is a 10.

I think he will want to go to whoever pays him the most, no matter what league its in.
I get that, but an extra few grand a year compared to an extra 10 grand a week usually sways it.Why? Some people move to whatever job pays them the most, but a lot of people tend to choose jobs based on more than just salary, with other factors to consider. I could move to companies who would pay me more, but my career decisions are based off more than just that.

Well yes, see Mbappe turning down €1 billion for a year’s work versus Jordan Henderson selling his soul for about £35 million.Why? It's all relative. Half of an extra 10k a week would go on tax anyway. I think you're oversimplifying the lives of footballers, they are people after all and some are more complex than "who will give me the most money".
you are not a footballer
Came to make similar points. He’s a special player but it feels he will go somewhere else for more money.I don’t doubt that we’d miss hamer massively as an individual if he left but people are forgetting the fact that we should have a lot more pace/energy down the flanks, hopefully Ohare coming back soon and two strikers who will be a handful. We’ve also seen how Eccles has step up in a more defensive role which might be needed with the above attacking set up and threats.
Our team shape and strengths will change but that’s not to say if the new lads bed in well and Ohares back to his best, we can’t be as strong overall
You are not a human.
Why doesn’t the entire planet work in Dubai or wherever? Of course people take more than money into account. I’m sure everyone here has had job offers of good money but terrible location they’ve had to turn down.

Yes , it's a case of ... I don't want to go, I don't want to go.Footballers cannot be compared to people in normal jobs.
A far shorter career
Throughout most players lives they have been at some point rejected and they develop a survival instinct
They when academy players will see many mates thrown on the scrap heap and dejection that causes
They are fully aware their current employer has zero loyalty to them. If an offer is made to the club they want they will “persuade” the player to leave. If form drops or injuries occur the much expected new contract vanishes.
In addition top footballers entire existence is controlled by outside agencies who make all strategic decisions for them
It’s a dog eat dog existence which all parties sign up to. Loyalty isn’t a word that exists.
You are very limited in how much you can pay into a pension fund.Many players who earn large amounts invest into pension schemes through their agents so actually half the money likely won’t go on tax
If the pension scheme is in UK yes.You are very limited in how much you can pay into a pension fund.
And once that fund exceeds your lifetime allowance, your taxed to fuck.
And once you start drawing that pension, your taxed again!
You can't beat the tax man.
Well he’d be able to agree terms with a club from abroad and leave on a free next summer in that scenario.if he doesnt go now, ill be more worried in january
