He is s useful player at this level, just not up to LaLiga/Premier League standard -

Pretty sure Nixon linked him to us and Burnley, Eustace said it was bollocks (thankfully). He's stealing a living, there's a reason desperate Hull are probably his only option. -

If we're signing two CMs Trav is definitely off yeah. I doubt it'll be Derby though, hes too young for that squad. -

Pretty sure as he is already playing regularly in Britain (not England), he will already have a British work permit. As he has been with them for 3 years, they will have moved him to a standard work permit by now According to AI AI Overview +4 Scottish clubs do not have Elite Significant Contribution (ESC) slots like English clubs. The English football system uses ESC slots to allow clubs to sign a limited number of exceptional international players who don't automatically qualify for a Governing Body Endorsement (GBE) under the points-based system. While Scottish clubs can sign players from overseas, the process is different and not tied to the same ESC structure -
He is a great signing but he doesnt push them up that for. Theyve been ambitious in terms of spending but they are still favourites to go down.

Granit xhaka has catapulted Sunderland into a midtable team. Can't believe leverkusen were willing to let him go

I may be misremembering, but isn't there a bit of a back door with players in Scotland? I had it in my head they would automatically qualify here after they've been there a certain time. -

This law change has been brought about due to referees not applying the law in the first place. I recall at Leeds the season before last and the first time Pears got possession of the ball. I timed it at twenty seconds before he played it and that set the tone for the game from a Rovers perspective. -

Most overrated goal was Michael Owen against Argentina. Wasn't even an attempt to tackle him and the commentators acted like he had done a Maradona 86 -

Hull have been given the green light by the EFL, to sign Oli McBurnie on a free transfer. Was this the guy we were linked with in the past? -

So if you beat a team in a friendly one week itβs a βgood winββ¦ get beat the week after in another friendly and you arenβt allowed to say the opposite as you overreacting. Fair enough. -

Would Miller definitely qualify for a work permit without being an ESC player? -

He has barely made the u21s at times. Terrible signing. -

It's pretty inexcusable that any Football League club would sign an ESC player on a 3yr deal, and be over a year without even a legitimate sniff of the first team (Pre-season, EFL/FA cup squads etc), and now be in a position where that players slot is a hindering factor. Feel sorry for the lad as it isn't his fault. But he needs moved.
