Charlie Wayman

He's not naughty, he's just misunderstood.

AI bots do not think, they review all the available information about a topic and summarises it in the form requested. It does only what any one of us could do if we had access to the same information but a billion times faster.

I know it's a joke and I will lead the chorus of "He's not wanted here!" On the other hand, there's a broader issue for older players on high salaries as we have seen with Sterling. These people may hold out for what they see as their worth in the marketplace but like all goods they are only worth what people will be prepared to pay for them. These days money for most is tight and so when the time comes to spend, it will be spent wisely. In terms of players likely considerations will be "Is the player a game changer?"; "Can we get 2/3 seasons out of him?"; "Can we sell him on in the market for a profit?" "What's his injury record, how reliable will he be?"; " How flexible is the player, or Is he too set in his ways to be coached into a different style of play?" In JWP's case, very few of those boxes can be ticked and his future will be bleak if WHU discard him. One suspects his future offers might come from lower Championship sides or abroad in tha US, Middle East or a lesser European league. I'm not sure that would suit him at all, he seems like a home boy to me. As far as we are concerned, the days of "one of our own" sentimentality are surely behind us after the debacles of Theo, Adam and Oriol. We don't need and won't make that mistake again

Much too gloomy. He's a good player and will get a better club than you fear. Bournemouth might take him back and even Villa as a back-up

Nor me.

Most of our games will be on Sky so ST waste of money

Hopefully Dragan has told them to do the proverbial

Glad you're not taking it seriously

or 'Start" even?

Not only crap but way past their best whenever that was. Sounds like a transfer policy for League 1

We need to keep him.

I'd hoped for Bayern Munich when I saw the OS headline, more our level really...

Sad that he only made a few brief appearances after his return But I suspect that or sentimentalty were not the main reasons he was brought in. Since he arrived all of our midfield players, Downes, Bragg, Jander and Charles have been improved out of all recognition from their former selves under Still. Co-incidence? I don't think so, more likely he has been encouraging and coaching those guys in the dark arts of midfield play in the background, quietly, efficiently and without distracting publicity. Like many others I absolutely loved the guy and sad to say farewell ¡Gracias, buena suerte y que tu futuro esté bendecido con felicidad!

Bit unneccsary silly comment

You need to drill down deeper than this
