It'd be a shame to see him go.
We're going to miss a lot of qualities, but I just hope that the club put themselves in the best possible position for the rest of the transfer window with whatever fee or whatever deal they've agreed.
The big thing really is the Nesbitt deal, because that kind of come out of the blue, because we'd been linked heavily with Dykes, hadn't we?
A couple of days before, and then all of a sudden, it was like, oh, Nesbitt signed, million pound, and it was done.
I just wonder if he was bought in on the basis that he would be playing with Fleming,
My opinion, I actually think that's the case.
I think Nesbitt was brought into bolster the attack on Fleming.
The plan was to have Fleming behind perhaps him and Bradshaw or him.
And then the interest from Burnley's come in.
I think Nesbitt was coming through the door regardless of what happened to Fleming.
But now the transfer window has completely changed.
I think, though, we've got to the point, I said this to you, I think, a bit earlier, Mickey, that we're at a point now where we can't just do things on the cheap all the time.
Like we're competing at a level now where wages are higher in the championship, where there is competition.
And if you want these players to come through the door and there's certain targets, you're going to have to pay them the going rate.
So the fact that we haven't had to pay a C...
says to me I have no issue with him being one of the higher earners based on the fact that we haven't had to pay a fee I get that you know you talk about the unrest in the squad and other players might want this that or the other but if you want to be successful in the championship now looking at you know Leicester have bought Harry Winks they're after the guy from Swansea Piro I think they're going to be chucking silly money at them so we have to up our game and pay players what they what they what the going rate is
I think just on the Callum Styles, I've got nothing against him.
I think he's a good player.
It's not that he doesn't play.
