If De Neve is decent defensively, and Hedges is also favoured, it means the manager wants wingers who are also good tracking back and helping out the full backs. Kargbo hasn’t a defensive bone is his body, so there’s no guarantee he’ll be an automatic starter under Val

A genius indeed. The first record I bought with my own money was Good Vibrations in late 1966 as a 14 year old. I’m not sure whether it was prescient to buy one of the best ever pop songs at such a young age or a curse to realise that it was all downhill from there. I was privileged to see him several times from 2005 when he finally got his life back and before dementia caught him. To paraphrase one of the great lyrics - “I might not always love him, but as long as there are stars above him”.

No problem pal Why would we do that when Ismael rated him? 🤔

"Ends the" perhaps.

Considering he was in the first team for a length of time on £300 a week then probably had a bit of a pay rise how much do we really honestly think he was asking for ?

In the nicest way, you are not normal. Haha

Maybe they'll loan Kargbo out for 6 months.

Wonder if we will go back in for Marwan AL Sahafi for the right wing. His agent spoke of our interest in January along with QPR.

Low wages, just the way they like it and less than they'd have to pay Dolan whose compo will pay this fee probably. Anyone on 10k or over it's a 1 year contract !

Thanks, Val.

At least we'd know what they really wanted it for unlike this lot.

Agree with you. For a winger you expect them to be able to create chances.Hedges creates little,His best attribute is against the top sides, Personally I think he works well with the fullback, played a big part in our big wins last season. He’s not everyone’s cup of tea but he also makes intelligent runs off the ball which opens space for others. But we do need better quality

the club is just handing out random deals because no one has a ****** clue what they are doing,meanwhile our best 3 players are approaching their last year and nothing is being done about it,we are without doubt the worst run club out of the whole 92

Kargbo only has 2 years left on his deal without even mentioning an option. That was very strange to give him such a short contract.

Big risk to only give a 2 year deal as well. If he is up to the level you immediately need to start negotiating a new deal, with a significant rise, when the season ends. I think a 4 year deal would have been a risk (that said he may not be on much), but I don't think a 3 year is too much risk.

Hedges is awful whichever side he plays on. Creates next to nothing. If he's the answer on the right (and he hasn't been in the 3 yrs we've had him) we are fecked.

The flipside of that is he would have signed a contract if we hadn't lowballed him.

Most scouting is done by Video first like using Wyscout Before watching them live next.

Here is my 2 line up Pickford TAA Guehi Colwill Hall Rice Wharton Saka Bellingham Gordon Kane Next one Pickford Livramento White Guehi Hall Rice Bellingham Saka Palmer Gordon Kane My squad Keeper - Pickford, Pope, Henderson RB - TAA, Livramento CB - Guehi, Colwill, White, Tomori, Branthwaite LB - Hall, Myles-Selley CM - Wharton, Bellingham, Rice, Jones, Comes, Anderson AM/Wide roles - Saka, Palmer, Gordon, Gibbs-White, Madueke Striker - Kane, Watkins

A terrific day out…⚪️🔵

I think Hedges would work well with Brittain down that channel. Hedges can cut inside or play Callum in for the cross. Plus offers good defensive duties

Not sure that Hedges and attack go in the same sentence.

Maybe if Tuchel actually make unpopular decision and pick the right team

Hedges is going back to the right side of the attack

Did you tell him to keep an eye on this thread and we’ll keep him updated? Back to front I know but needs must 😁😁
