If we get some injuries, get desperate, or MoPo suffers a tactical brain fart/epiphany (depending on your perspective) he can be given a squad number and immediately selected to play, right ?

I suspect, therefore, that this urban myth about him being persona non grata at Staplewood is complete b*ll*cks. he's on the list because we have no choice in the matter, giving him a game is something else. Any PL club that doesn't have 25 other over 21 last 1 Jan players that they do want to play has to nominate any other senior professional on their payroll to make up the numbers. Dickson was on the list last year and Forte, didn't play them though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect, therefore, that this urban myth about him being persona non grata at Staplewood is complete b*ll*cks. In the relatively unlikely event that Lambert, Osvaldo and Rodriguez are all unavailable for the same game I would imagine MP would play Ramirez in a more advanced position. And in the even more unlikely event that Ramirez was also unavailable then I would expect him to either just play with attacking midfielders (haven't Spain and/or Barcelona played without a recognised out-and-out striker quite often in recent times?) or call upon the likes of Sinclair, Rowe or Seager ahead of Sharp. We'll never actually know unless the unlikely happens. (Don't get me wrong, I'd quite like to see Sharp given a crack of the whip in the Premier League, but I don't think it'll happen for whatever reason) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ART Posted 5 September, 2013 Share Posted 5 September, 2013 How come not one forum member has found the time to pop down to Staplewood and find who is training there. Sharp, as I posted on the Mayuka thread, posted on Twitter last night he's returned to Southampton and is staying in the Ennis Hotel.

You can't buy out of contract players anyway, you can't leave contracted pros off the list if you don't have 25 others who are over 21, don't think we were up to 25 last year, think we had 23 including the "non-players".

We had 23 not including Boruc last season. 24 after we signed him as an out of contract player. I don't know why you think we can't do that. My point is that you're highly unlikely to want to be signing two of them, and limiting it to two because you haven't got rid of others who won't play but have to be named is therefore not a problem. http://www.premierleague.com/content/dam/premierleague/site-content/News/publications/squad-lists/Squad-Lists-September-2012.pdf Last season we named Dickson and Forte, but not Sharp (season long loan) or Barnard (half season loan at AFCB I think ?) or Martin (half season at Palace).

We only have those two free slots because of the late loan out of Puncheon and the last day one of Mayuka. I also seriously doubt we will sign any non-contract players (as WC pointed out, if they are out of contract they wouldn't need to be bought) but it is nice to have the option to do so on the off chance that a player we would like suddenly finds himself 'out of contract' by mutual consent - or if was to buy himself out of one - (I know, this a Skate tactic and not something we would do). In any event, I don't believe if a prem club had met our valuation for Billy with a firm bid we would have turned it down. That, in itself, does not make any sense.

They don't need to be bought, but they do need to be paid. I think it's highly unlikely we'd find an out-of-contract player who'd offer us more than either Mayuka or Puncheon and can't imagine that freeing up some slots for non-contract players was the logic behind it. Guly is strangely near the first team again now though. Agreed that we'd have sold if someone had met our and Sharp's terms. I suspect that the latter is the sticking point. We must have offered good terms to get him to leave Doncaster at a very difficult time, with us as a top 2 Championship side, the contract probably having a promotion wage hike like numerous others have had, and as a result he's priced out of playing for anyone outside the Prem, where he still doesn't have any experience. I can't see Sharp leaving until the final year of his contract, and I can't blame him for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might give us an extra option because Tad can be quick if he wants and he can finish extremely well . Obviously loaning out Mayuka and Puncheon has freed up the possibility of a bit of realistic game time for Tad. Perhaps he's been looking sharp in training with the U21s or whatever it is.
