Why does Lamptey stay? He can’t defend.

Is he worth more than his Albion fee? Is Owen making things up as he goes along?

Stuttgart are 18 points ahead of the club in 6th place and it was said after the English clubs crashed that the Bundesliga will have 5 CL clubs next season. We can assume Undav will want that rather than PL lower mid table fare.

Football inflation. Bissouma’s £15m 6 years ago was at a time when Salah cost £37m. £15m was a big investment.

The Fati, Milner and Lallana wages …. in total £275k a week? Will help.

My memories. Biss was a crowd pleaser with his persona, tackling and crazy runs. But wasted possession, seldom passed, hit row z every game ruining attacks and couldn’t be trusted to be the lone DM with no structure to his game. But it all came good in the end.

Could you imagine though if we didn’t have him. He’s had some decent games. There’d literally be no one with pace and tackling in DM. Bissouma had time to develop with quality around him. Whilst Baleba’s had Dad’s Army.

I feel sorry for him, he’s literally our only true CM’er having to handle all the work of pivots. The rest; square pegs, injured or the decrepit. Previous Albion CM’s had an abundance of riches …. Mwepu, Bissouma, Caicedo, Mac and a younger Gross. Bissouma was a loose cannon who didn’t pass...

Kolkowlolokowski?

Omitting a dozen other PL clubs, overseas clubs and Championship clubs with money. Perhaps the club would seek a modest fee to clear a squad player who’s not impressing. But it’s a protracted process.

He fell over.

The market will decide. Set the transfer fee for Webster, Lamptey etc at a level where that attracts interest and have a discussion that they’re not likely to feature. That’s how clubs have operated since transfers have been around. Footballer autobios explain just that, how they reluctantly...

The clear out includes sales. Albion ….. please don’t exercise the Milner option.

I suspect Hinshelwood, Pedro and Mitoma will all move on this summer. But boy our audited accounts for 2024/25 will make great reading :fishing:

We need to clear numbers and wages, to make way for the first team additions we patently need.

He must miss Caicedo and Mac like hell, they did the heavy lifting, leaving PG to score, create and bamboozle any opponent.

TB … go for it. Lamptey Webster Milner Steele Veltman (my favourite player, but legs gone?) Thankfully no more Lallana or Fati. That’s a huge wedge in wages.
