He’s going nowhere in this window and except for a strong bid we might yet hold on to him in the summer.
Off at a tangent but on the subject of set pieces,
Those stats on Hamer posted as part of a comparison of who were the most effective players in the Championship highlighted their importance. A very high part of Hamers 'effectiveness' as they measured it was his contribution from set pieces.
This appeals to us, because we have lacked that for years, but as a desirable asset for a higher club it is of lesser value. They have lots of players who are good at set pieces. The Norwich player they assessed was by far the most effective in open play. It is concievable that the very stats minded clubs higher up the League will notice that as well.
Although I'm not normally averse to selling on players at a good profit, it is central to the club's survival, I would like to hang on to Gustavo the Great for a while given the physical fragility and/or lack of experience in the midfield.
Let’s hope so ! Will need him for the ascent !He’s going nowhere in this window and except for a strong bid we might yet hold on to him in the summer.

Likes of James and Crowley don’t have to have to uproot during a pandemic and near home. Makes a lot of sense
yeah good point, especially when the tier system was in place.
Sky reporter, expect it to be announced later then.
Later today or tomorrow. We don't always rush announcements out.
He needs (and deserves) a new improved contract ASAP, he will have just 2 years on his contract left in the summer.He’s going nowhere in this window and except for a strong bid we might yet hold on to him in the summer.

Its been an amazing bit of business. According to Boddy the transfer deal was done along similar lines to Chaplin deal, we probably havnt paid anywhere near the 1 million fee yet.
Dont think anyone envisaged at start of season what a bargain he is.
He’s been fantastic alright. I remember when we signed him someone on here, with knowledge of the Dutch league, saying they didn’t know how we’d managed to sign him.He needs (and deserves) a new improved contract ASAP, he will have just 2 years on his contract left in the summer.

Dont think that would be premature. Dont be surprised if he gets a improved contract soon.Assuming we stay up sure that will be on people’s minds but would be unwise to do so prematurely
Was an outstanding pass, one that he just doesn't attempt anywhere near enough... Is kind of my point.
The fact you can pick out his only true outstanding forward pass, is also kind of the point
Also suggesting there aren't many pros that come cheap that can't do that pass, is also very naive..
we sign players that are under 23 for the first team and under 23s, and the majority play in both sides so they’re getting game time all the time so they’re always ready. They’re pretty much all pushing for first team.
He is a nice guy, that ofcourse I can't deny him thatNothing wrong with that - better than snorting coke, kicking in shop windows, and acting like a billy big b*ll*cks. He's a nice guy.
Mate, this season I can probably pick out every forward movement the team has made, there’s hardly a lot of them.
You’ve used the exact same number of players as us: 24. 16 of which have played more than 10 games. What are you on about playing 40 players regularly?
And yet I still prefer Noel Whelan to BiamouNothing wrong with that - better than snorting coke, kicking in shop windows, and acting like a billy big b*ll*cks. He's a nice guy.
I preffered stern John to Biamou and he was about as likeable as a fart in a boxAnd yet I still prefer Noel Whelan to Biamou

Actually we get forward quite alot.. What we do with the ball in the final 3rd is a different argument entirely
Haha didn’t mean to post that, was a reconsidered comment I’d left in before. Ah well gotta own it now.
You make good arguments, 1 or 2 mistakes are bound to happen when you're as tactically gifted mentally as we areHaha didn’t mean to post that, was a reconsidered comment I’d left in before. Ah well gotta own it now.

If you have genuine asset worth multiple millions, think you will find most top players worth a huge potential transfer fee wont get anywhere near 2 years left on their contract.
Top young players like Grealish/Maddison/Mount wont ever get to anywhere near 2 seasons left, probably start panicking at 3 years left...obviously Im not comparing Hamer to them, but relatively speaking Hamers value alone is worth at least our seasons total incoming revenue.
Anybody noticed how much more activity there is on here midweek during lockdown (or am I just imagining it?) !!!
Good to have the window open (also wear mask, wash hands, and use sanitiser)It's because the transfer window is open. Always the same.

Isn't that what every team does?the first team and under 23s play in first team and under 23s, we don’t have loan players so we use both squads, if we get injuries we use players from under 23s as replacements, because they’re ready to go because they’ve been playing together.

god i wish i supported a team as well run as Barnsleynot sure, their tends to be a lot of moaning and using squad size as an excuse for failings if they do. With us us their all pushing for first team, we don’t tend to get many injuries but we’re pretty well covered compared to most if we do.
