I’d agree without the injuries.

One would hazard a guess that he was under instructions to reveal that info, as it means that there is no possibility of reaching 5 competitive caps before the transfer window, so it gives them another excuse as to why there is next to no transfer budget come January

The highlights don't show up Wharton well. Looked unsure positionally and no moments on the ball in open play (albeit, looked like Bellingham was determined not to be outshone by him). But that's just the highlights and understandable given the moment. I hope he gets more chances, maybe, with a defensive player alongside him.

Actually fancy this more at Deepdale than I would at Ewood. Our best performances this season have come on the road and them coming onto us would play very nicely into that gameplan. The caveat being injuries, Toth most significantly.

Best fans in the world, seriously thinking of signing up again, nothing like following England away 🤔

He could have revealed that ‘info’ at any moment, I wonder why he has chosen now.

Nixon saying on his bluesky account that Wharton has to make 5 competitive appearances for England before we are due anything from Palace

Its a bizarre argument. People presumably think we should have got a bigger initial fee ASWELL as add ons. Those add ons arent part of a masterplan as opposed to a higher fee. And had we waited longer and not been as desperate, chucking him out the door in the less busy winter window, then he would have been worth more, however it was structured.

Didn't do much.

Maybe one of Georgia Stanway, Ella Toone or Keira Walsh?! How Rovers women have also fallen...

Funny how they came to our message board and posted it on theirs 😂. Rent free in their heads honestly. Petty preston.

Pretty sure it would be Phil Jones.

Great to see glad for the lad 🦾 I know he doesn’t play for us anymore and I know some aren’t happy about that but I will always consider him one of our own thinking about it, when was the last time one of our own youth players made it to start for England? In a competitive game too! can’t have been for a long while?

Also true, but it was Mowbray dropping him that made him want to leave and eventually move on to Brentford. But then again we did use the money from that sale to buy the goal scoring colossus that was Sam Gallagher, so it all ended well 😉

With the opposition ?

Forgotten all about him. I do remember Raya wasn't getting a chance until Mowbray picked him.

I thought Wharton was not involved very much, it was like watching BBD when first playing for Chile. Nobody wanted to pass to him.

Well, typical display. Picked up a bit of a harsh yellow, but he should be pleased with his performance.

How did he play?

Don't forget the dark days when he dropped Raya for Leutwiler

Thought it was Mowbray who gave him his chance?

Ok. I thought the Arsenal sell on was widely reported as £4m. Point still stands though, as with Wharton we gave him away ridiculously cheap initially, in that instance primarily because Mowbray didnt really rate him.

Great assist by er Rashford

£3M up front, £5M from the sell on, and there was another add on when he made his debut for Spain, not sure what that amount was,but pretty safe to say it was over £9M in total

Lol. Famous last words! Kane again.
