Gossip that Villa want Gareth Barry back if they go up.
Go, Agent Barry!

The Catch 22 of Premier League football. Either cash in on your stars, buy whatever replacements you can find and struggle as a result (e.g. Southampton, Swansea), or hold on to them at all costs and then find they won't play for you anymore (Albion, Stoke).

.....or get your recruitment absolutely right and somehow find a few like Brunty, Mozza and Fozzie - players who can more than hold their own at the top level AND have loyalty, commitment and honesty etched into their soul

Yeah, but they're the honourable exception, and most "established" clubs who go down have got two or three of their kind. I'm talking the players who've got the talent to play for a top-six club. I can't think of a single example of a player who has the skill to be a Champions League regular who instead sticks with his "lesser" club purely out of loyalty.

I’d definitely look at the Stoke winger Ramadan Sobhi. Total Quality

I must apologise - at the moment I have not maintained the header to this thread with any links - I will get there eventually, but at the moment my heart has been knocked out of it due to the depressing last few months at West Brom. I know Big Dave did great things but we all knew it was too little too late and he is the only one that comes out of it with a positive.
Come the inevitable moment when I move this to the Championship page I might have started to feel positive again - but it's very dependant on who the club recruit as manager.

Not according to my man ITK at Stoke - he said he would pay the taxi fare for us to sign him?

Sobhi is worse than McClean. Hasn't got a trick, average pace.... The only thing on his side is youth.

We all have opinions but Obviously your MAN ITK is far better than at least 4 of mine who all rate him. I’ll bow to your superiority
