Box to box. 6 foot. Only 24. Probably right, as it means we'll end up paying chelsea money in sell on fees which seems to be our MO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saying that is the case for arguments sake. Could I add the likes of Adelakun , Eisa , Engval etc ? IF so and LJ has dug his heels in by not using them then I have more respect for him. Very difficult job to use players you didn’t want and forge a playing style with players that don’t suit it. So who are choosing these players , MA ? If that’s the case then JL SL are a shambles letting MA dictate players when he’s not a football man . they talk about singing from the same hymn sheet but obviously are not.

REDOXO Posted January 23, 2020 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2020 I’m confused. There seems to be an implication that Mark Ashton is buying players that Lee Johnson has not approved of and LJ is/has been disinclined to consider them on an equal footing as other players that he has approved of?

It's been discussed on a few threads recently by people who have inside knowledge and are trusted posters. If you get a spare 20 minutes, i'd recommend reading through this thread where it's properly explained and debated very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
