The Great Grumbleduke
Amazing, this is a 19 year old lad thrown into the deep end during a tough season for the club. To perform at Premier League level immediately and outshine some seasoned expensive players is brilliant.

If you recall! We offered both Berge & illiman contracts way before they ran out!! If a player won't sign what do you do ! Most teams would sell including the so called elite ,.
Your guessing at a lot of things there regarding values ! The key is the player he holds all the cards.I don't recall Dortmund rushing to sell Lewandowski before he went to Bayern on a free to give but one counterexample. It's a simple bit of maths, you estimate what the player's worth is to you for the remainder of the contract, and compare it to what you can get if you sell on the open market. If the former's more than the latter, you don't sell unless you can't handle the variance. If you say that retaining him did, if NOTHING else, allow us not to have the awful start we did, and we got a point vs Palace, beat Forest, then later in the season beat Luton (which is not asking a lot, especially given the first two of those appear to be a direct result of selling him at short notice), then all of a sudden we're on 23 points and in 17th with a game in hand on everyone below us. See out the rest of the season in that position and he can leave to wherever he wants with all our blessings, as he'd have just made us another 100 million quid. But no, must sell to first team that comes sniffing for a fraction of that

Not all of them. There is a very large minimum release clause written into the contract. If he went we’d be getting top dollar.Your guessing at a lot of things there regarding values ! The key is the player he holds all the cards.
Jack O'Connell was one I said would do. And he would have tooIn 54 years of watching us I’ve predicted 2 of our players will play for England having seen them play once or twice.

Exactly what I’ve been thinking.Hamer --- Arblaster -- Lewis Obrien

Very similar to what's happening with peck ,he's doing exactly the same ,training and traveling getting familiar with first team duties.Wasn’t thrown into the deep end.
Wilder brought him back and slowly introduced him into the side. Into training and then he was travelling down with the club not on the bench followed by him on the bench and getting on.
It’s been a steady progress that seemed planned. Think we got it wrong with Brooks just launching him into the side.
Genuinely excited with this bunch. Assuming Souza moves on.Very similar to what's happening with peck ,he's doing exactly the same ,training and traveling getting familiar with first team duties.
This guy will be gone soon for sure. Hes too good for us, we just have to get a good price for him and reinvest in quality. (2 things we are notoriously poor at).
I'd rather see five in midfield.Hamer --- Arblaster -- Lewis Obrien

Heckingbottom had an opportunity to do that at the start of the season. How things might have been different for us and him had he been adventurous and not sought to rely on Fleck and Norwood. UFM.Wasn’t thrown into the deep end.
