I must just add that being player of the season probably added a good few million to our bargaining position, so thanks for the extra cash you Yorkshire muppets.

£50 million is obviously the sort of money we can’t turn down so I fully get it but for me it’s annoying that most fans haven’t had a chance to see a player we’ve nurtured in the flesh.
I was lucky enough to have been at the City game but (and I know Leeds fans will love this) it doesn’t...
Well, if it is done, then I hope Ostigard is as good as has been made out. Veltman will be playing RWB once Lamptey's hamstring inevitably pings again.
From memory that was triggered at a certain point in his contract, which is why we'd been tracking him for a while. I'm absolutely sure though that White won't have a release clause of 1 million to go to another EPL team.
He might have something like "Brighton must accept an offer of greater...
Seems extremely unlikely. Release clauses are normally around transfer fee. What if one of those clubs was having a poor season or us a great one and we're within a place or two in the table? Then they come in with an offer of a fiver in January and we have to let him go to a rival?
Nah.
But Mings literally only is selected because he’s left footed. The need to turn out from defensive possession is one of the first things youngsters are shown.
Of course this means using Shaw or Chilwell on the left as well. If he picks Trippier it makes a mockery of it.

Hopefully true, what a fantastic couple of days for the lad if so.
Would make perfect sense too, covering two positions where there are injury doubts (though quite why we're taking players with injury doubts - and Mings - is another question).
I know what you and Pavilionaire are saying but.....
Those players can *take* free kicks. JWP will score almost every single one. Also, probably the second best corner taker in the whole 33 after......Trent.
My son said exactly the same. He wants White but thinks Southgate will select Ward-Prowse to cover TAA's set pieces. Either are better options than Lingard.
When he came on I suddenly felt like I did when my son plays and I watched White rather than watching the ball. To start off with he didn't go near the ball, just settled into shape and helped England look defensively solid. Then gradually the ball found him, or him the ball, and he did, indeed...
Hang on - you just advocated for Lingard to come in and now you're saying we're a CB and CM short - White plays in both positions :wozza:
And is Lingard really going to start ahead of Foden, Mount, Grealish, Sterling, Sancho? Of course not.
