CONFIRMED Anel Ahmedhodzic sold to Feyenoord

[jt64]

Fotmob just buzzed to say it was a 15 million bid. That appears to be based on a BBC sport articles saying 18 million euros or 15.6 million quid.


Surely FUCKING not!

If the BBC say it's going to be sunny all day, I normally take a coat

 

[Bladesman101]

I’m excited to see who we bring in! Bindon and Robinson are suitable for a couple of games whilst we surely bring in 2 quality centre halves!

Robinson is a solid pro and a culture carrier.

 

[Blademan89]

Only us would sell their best CB, days before start of season, and not have a replacement in house.

Take it you wasn't here for the start of 23/24 season.

 

[Bladesman101]

Anel wasn’t anything special. Good player but honestly hope we can do better, all in all a disappointment.

 

[Eric_Brooks]

Robinson is a solid pro and a culture carrier.

What culture is this?

 

[BladeByChoice]

Anel was a difficult player to criticize, his family situation probably played a part in his poorer performances.

But now he’s gone, I did have one complaint, at times he seemed weak, pushed off the ball far to easily by forwards half his size, we need to address that.

I’ll miss him and wish him well, great player.

He has a yeast infection.

 

[Bladeinleeds]

Club decide they fancy our player. Agree a fee, fly him over, give him a medical and sign him all within 24 hours.

Sheffield United nearly a month to agree a simple loan arrangement.

Not mention we haven’t even located someone we signed in January yet hahah

 

[Flatulent_Bob]

Ronnie Edwards perfect antidote to omnipresent doubled-barreledness. Proper Centre Half name. No idea if he's any good.

Gerrimin.

You'd think Edwards would be a next season at best target, IF we get promoted and IF Southampton don't.
We couldn't afford his wages or fee currently.

 

[Flatulent_Bob]

All unravelling now with the new owners, sell the family jewels and spend nowt.
GLTTL I enjoyed watching his runs up the pitch.

With a name like that he was always going to be a Centre Half or an East End face.

Partly, but not totally, down to the fact that Ahmedhodžić is a EU citizen moving to an EU country. No onorous Brexit-related bureaucratic red tape.

 

[Pedro's Winger]

Chances of Hamer leaving must be increasing.
Be surprising if he stays given the state of the squad now.

He's 100% going to be swiped at the last minute it's whether the owners want to gamble on finding a replacement or two before.

He got himself into poor positions at times which was why he was often booked

 

[Bladesince59]

He is bang average and often a very loose cannon. Not sorry to see him go.

 

[Broomhall Blade]

True, but have the 4 teams we play done all their transfer business done and settled in ?
I doubt it.

I don't know but I bet they haven't sold 2 of their better players plus another in Moore who was a regular starter last season.

 

[Stretch]

I have mixed feelings on this one.

Anel was a great player on his day and seeing his redemption (if that is the right word) last season, after all that shit with his Dad, was one of the early highpoints.

But he was inconsistent and if we can still get a few quid for him, it was probably the right time to part company. The key question now is how the money is used. We already needed a commanding CB, now we need 2, which is added to the list of RB, CM (assuming Blaster's comeback is delayed) and a winger.

GLTTL anyway. He was a decent servant and one of our better signings post Wilder 1.

 

[Balham]

If he stayed through Wilder's tactical masterstroke of playing him wide left for the entirety of last season he can stay through this.

 

[crucialkneeligaman]

Bye. Thanks for your efforts for us in the premier league.

 

[ZoneManWilf]

GLTTL. Creates a hole but decent deal to make a profit on him with a year left.

He's an excellent champ CB but not good enough for the prem.

Need to recruit well now for probably 2 CBs, including 1 long term.

The chances of Hamer leaving are pretty high but not because we’ve sold a centre back who was pretty much certain to leave this window.

Anyone would think we were in Wednesday’s position with some of the comments on here.

 

[Kenworthy’s Tash]

Starting to worry about this transfer window now, need to sign some quality players, and quickly. Hopefully the board will spend some money now they’re racked in £15m.

 

[Keen Blade]

We’ve tried to upgrade him every year and somehow he’s ended up playing pretty much 80% of the games regardless.

Wilder never really tried very hard to upgrade on his mate - otherwise we'd have had some decent CBs on permanent contracts since JoC & Anel

 

[Ndiayewillalwaysloveyou]

Quick signing that for Feyenoord.

 

[Keen Blade]

Makes zero sense to me. One of the biggest issues we had at the back end of last season was our lack of pace, movement and physicality. It meant not only could we not create space and chances in the final third, it also meant any team that attacked us with pace and movement found our defence ridiculously easy to run through. By the end of the season even the shit teams realised we could be got at.

Robinson was the poster child for this and if he starts the season, i fully expect every team we play against to target him and get their fastest most skilful players to do run between, around, behind him.

He's not just physically slow, but slow to react too. He's a real week link in our side, and no not addressing this will cause us serious issues.

I
Yes , but he was Wilder's "culture-carrrier"
What a feckin joke !
He was his mate , pure & simple.

Why do you think we haven't had a decent CB on a permanent contract since Anel ?

 

[john Mathison]

Souza, Moore, Anel sold, Brewster gone, 5 loans went back. 9 players out , 3 loans in. We need 1 RB, 2 CB, 2 strikers, and that is presuming the Everton lad is on his way.
If that is correct, we only have 1 more loan slot for matchday squad.

 

[steve26272]

Or, given we have cashed in on Anel & Vini, we don’t need to sell?

Hamers been around long enough to know, unlike some on here, that we will bring in new faces.

Just because it’s not done in the order you like it doesn’t mean it’s not going to happen
