Class for him, class for a Mike Ashley built team or class sitting on the bench until he leaves for free in the summer? Well, his form was so good he kept Bruno out of the side for a couple of months. Then he retained his starting place after Bruno finally broke through and he continued to start as our “number six” as the run that kept us up continued Edited January 31, 2023 by Dr Gloom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 23642 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 What I liked most about Shelvey last season was he allowed Bruno to play further forwards 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 49974 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 I like him and I really enjoyed seeing him buy in and play well for Howe, probably mainly for what it said about the manager tbh. I hope he doesn't leave and go back to being a lazy fucker, would be nice to see him end his career on a relative high. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polarboy 2317 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 With this three match suspension for Bruno you'd hope the club would bite the bullet and get a player in even if they have to overpay to do it, but with FFP and how little time is left perhaps it's not possible.

OTF 8418 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Bruno not looking as cheeful as usual (and rightfully so) and Isak being propped up by some support staff. I was gpong to say no Fraser, but it's entirely possible he's in there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd imagine they've advanced a few deals to a certain stage, but perhaps baulked at wage demands in Loftus-Cheeks case, or a fee in Gallagher's case. Of course that's assuming that Chelsea wouldn't just point blank not deal with us, but we've probably been speaking to other clubs as well. As long as you get a deal sheet in before 11 all the contract negotiation, medical etc can be signed off after the deadline. Also I think rules aren't as strict for loan deals in terms of deadlines. Bruno was sent off at about 21:35, so an hour and twenty-five to get the aforementioned team sheet in if again there was any deal close to being agreed if not for the finances involved. Best case we actually had something agreed before the match but it hasn't been announced yet, but yeah it is a very long shot in any other case.

Especially when it's probably his last big contract. The lad has just travelled up from Nottingham so it's most likely signed off and just not officially announced.

Isegrim 10356 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 I am actually pleased that we don’t sign players just for the sake of it. A couple of additions would have been nice but there has been no need for signing players who don’t fit into the strategy, 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polarboy 2317 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Don't know how accurate it is but seen someone say that we'd be fucked for a few transfer windows to come if we overspend in this financial year. I know it's been said but it boggles the mind how Chelsea are managing it, even if their commercial revenue currently dwarfs our own. I know it seems like they're doing it by spreading things over long contracts and structured payments, but the question is why couldn't we have done the same for at least one player. Hopefully by this time next year we'll have the new sponsorship, shirt deals money rolling in and we'll be in a much better position. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
