Outgoing? Hamer

[Greg.]

Maybe just me I do think he would struggle in the premier league, it's such a high pace, might just be above his level and not sure it would be a great signing for Cov, though maybe it's just a rotation option.

I remember the player cams from a PL preseason friendly and it is wild how you get closed down in seconds, good example at 1:10 or so here:

He did struggle in the PL for us. Was still our best player mind, but that was hardly a difficult thing to achieve. Coventry have no chance this season. None. Taking him from us absolutely kills off any chance we have of a reasonable season, but it won't help them stay up either

Hopefully neither us or Coventry are so entirely dependant on one player.
I think we won quite a few games without him last season and would do so again.
Nice if he stays but if not, we move on.

I always expected Cov to not spend given their history, but signing Hamer doesn't even align with building a Yo-Yo side

Pretty sure someone said we scored a goal every 62.5 minutes with him and 63.5 without

Jack Clarke is going to Leicester.

You mean Tom Watson

 

[Valley Blade]

This team is miles off it without Gus and you’d basically have to take the moneyball approach of ‘replacing him in the aggregate’ with a left winger who scores goals and a central midfield player who creates them. That would be an expensive outlay on two players and not sure the fee we get for Hamer will allow us to do it. Which is why you just don’t sell really.

Don’t understand why the club is scared to death of players leaving for free, it happens all the time at other clubs because they seem to understand they’re also a football team that has a season full of games to play, and maybe performances on the pitch have to be considered.

If you don't receive incoming transfer fees, how do you expect the club to proceed?

 

[Kozzy_is_my_Dad]

Either way it is what it is and as long as we sign a decent replacement, loan or permanent then one door closes another opens.

We won't, though. This is Yoonited after all.

Is Danny trolling us or SISU ?

Well Coventry fans have been hassling him.

I still think Danny knows fuck all and he can take as many pictures of Hamer as he wants.

There were Coventry fans saying that he had left the training camp

These pictures prove that’s false at least.

(Doesn’t mean he won’t)

But would he really be doing a fan meet and greet with blades fans if he was leaving very soon? It probably means it’s not as close as people have made out.

I would say that it means he is hungry

That's this mornings news, he's been doing the meet and greet in Germany this afternoon.

I do think he is off anyway.

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

They made him, we improved him. If they pay us more than we paid them then that's a win in my book.

I don't have a book by the way.

[Frank the tank]

Nothing suggests this is anything other than the usual merry go round when someone creates a feasible rumour

It's not much of a commute from Dronfield to Coventry.

I know what people are thinking regarding how settled he is here.

[Kozzy_is_my_Dad]

I think he will go. It will either be resolved quickly or it will annoyingly trundle on for most of the summer. But either way, I expect us to be disappointed. Love Gus.

To be fair as Blades fans we should expect disappointment most of the time.

 

[Kenilworth]

Would be the ultimate if Gus extends.

Many people believe he has extended, whilst with us, to be fair.

Hour and half, realistically, each way.

I’d rather have Souttar on a 4 year deal come than have Hamer for 1 more season, so even if the fee is somehwere like £8m I’m fine with it as that pays for big Harry.

What did wilder say?

I want them both. I really do think the club should offer Gus a really tempting 3 year deal. If that means we go with one or two players less in the squad then so be it.

I think we may end up keeping Gus and Peck.

This would be a squad capable of a top 8 place:

Cooper

Seriki
Souttar
Tanganga
McCallum
Burrows

Phillips
Arblaster
Rothwell
Peck
Jairo
Gus
O'Hare


Bamford
Cannon
Campbell
BBD
