If I'm honest, I'm really surprised bednerak has signed a new long term deal! Makes me wonder whether there is a gentleman's agreement upon a champions league team calling., then he will get the blessing of the club and we will take in a decent fee. But on the positive side, excellent news for us.
Great news about Bed. Helps keep the clean sheets in front of the four posts. I think we need a blanket ban now on puns.
So we thought Ralph was talking about Bedders when he said some players need to make up their mind whether they want to be part of our journey as the train is about to leave. Quite clear now that he was actually talking about Ings.
I believe that the thrust of that article is correct, but I’m sure his contact is until summer of ‘22. Not ‘21. If all the other published sources are wrong and it does expire in the summer then that is obviously a rather large problem.
So if he doesn’t sign by end of the season we’ll seek to sell him. That’s fine. Let’s just get Patson Daka in from RB Salzburg to replace him though, yes? Please? Okay. Sorted.
It's ironic isn't it. This time last year we were apoplectic about our poor defence. Apart from Bedders, we have Stephens and Vesty who were both accident prone. Stephens has a great run and rewarded with a new contract. Same for Vesty. We sign Salisu and KWP and suddenly we have not only have a strong back 4 but also options from the bench!
