Burrows and Hamer the obvious ones. Think they'll get top 2 next season with Ipswich. Leicester should but face 3 changes for breaking FFP rules so should get a juicy points deduction.

Souza for me. He’s a beast.

Cooper, Hamer, Burrows from Sheff U.

Sainz from Norwich maybe.

Would the Championship 'team of the season' stay up? I'm doubting they would. Burrows and Hamer (SheffU), Sainz and Sargent (Norwich) didn't get promoted...I don't particularly want any of them.

I asked this because unlike a lot of you guys I am not that interested in watching other teams and all I have to go on is from when we played against them and don't really remember too many who stood out against us other than a few keepers who seemed to have the games of their life. Knew nothing about piroe before he signed as he obviously hadn't impressed against us and still not convinced on him as does very little until he appeared from nowhere to score. Would keep his as both backup for striker and 10 but wouldn't be a starter for me in either position. Do we need anymore of those types. Byram I can understand as can play all across the back in an emergency but we have a lot of positions where we require quality but understand we need to beef up the squad a bit and I would take what I could get for arronson as he just ain't built for pl

Hamer is fine but I think we can get better, personally. Mike Cooper is a name worth considering. Decent keeper, but can think of loads of times that a keeper considered amongst championships best failed at the step up. Burrows would be fine, but I'd prefer someone over him to start. Ahmedhodzic would be decent backup to Rodon, but I doubt he would come without gametime.

Think Sydie Peck has a very bright future in the game, but may be too expensive to sign with prospect in mind, as he probably isn't PL ready right now. Maybe to backup Tanaka though, if you think he's ready for the step up.

Hamer is a no brainer, go and get him, championship player of the season and man of the match even on the loosing side yesterday. Solves two glaring weaknesses for us, the number 10 we have lacked since Pablo and he can actually take a free kick.

Hamers fatter and slower than me,

Maybe but it didnt stop him out running two slim guys before a perfect pass created a goal.

Think Hamer is one of those players who looks out of shape but isn't. Luke Shaw is the same. Just the way their muscles are makes them look stocky. That being said, he seems quite injury prone to me.

Not really the same as teams staying down, but I'd be on the phone to Egan-Riley and Brownhill at Burnley. Both on a free this summer. Try and convince them that we are a better bet of staying up.

Hamer's injury prone

Hamer, yes.

Today, he proved again that he’s got what it takes to make it in the Premiership. That’s why we were after him last Summer.

Sunderland’s change of fortune also turned with his injury when he them had to go off.

He also has plenty of pace and strength, as we saw today for his assist.

Aaronson has neither.

21/22 played in 41 games
22/23 played in 45 games
23/24 played in 40 games
24/25 played in 46 games( was suspended for a few games too)


We talking about same player 🤷🏻‍♂️

You have to be wary of signing the championships best - look at Ipswich town. Well over £100m spent of the best of the rest and they got 22 points…….

However in Hamer think he is a player that could step up. Great feet, great control. Good passer in final third, great shot on him, takes set pieces, and not afraid of hard work tracking back.

We should be on the phone already negotiating a price

Depends on the fee. If its 10 million I'd do it ASAP. If its 20 then I'd be looking at other options like Buendia.

I’d be happy enough with hamer - one if the standout players in the championship and he did ok for them in the PL despite playing in a side out of its depth.

Cooper always looked good last season but its a massive step up. Would be a risk.

Burrows should have been bought last summer instead of yet another right footer

Firpo has been good this season and we got promoted with 100 points. Not really sure you can criticise too much.

tbh theres not a single player of any championship side this year I think could play for us.. we really did boss this league.. and the team of the season, (where they pick a player from the top clubs and pick a team) should simply be the Leeds team.

we really need to be looking at players from bottom end premier league, or middle premier league, if we can convince them to come of course..

would also use the pull of the premier league and look at leagues like serie A trying to find that gem.

not guna be easy, but really don't want to see us sign Hamer for example... just not that big an improvement on what we have,

Balance is very important, Firpo gets injured, international football, needs a rest etc Always room for improvement Firpo was a massive miss, just maybe Burrows would have been a far better reserve than numerous right backs playing left back?

Maybe, but it didn't matter.
