    According to Dean Jones, Edu and team were happy happy for all the public talk about us going for Sesko, because it has taken some of the attention off other transfer discussions we’ve had behind the scenes. Also, his sources say we weren’t planning on going for anyone in June, but got kind of rushed into making an offer for Sesko. So the implication is that we won’t be going for anyone big before the Euros.

      Has to be. But I’m not sure if Ramsdale will go. Unless someone offers 40+ for him, what incentive do we have to sell? And who in the world would we get that would be good enough to challenge Raya, be better than Ramsdale, and be content to play cups only?

        If he’s pissed off enough to want to leave. But then like, he’s still making the England squad anyway lol. I hope he stays and fights for his spot back. We’re a better team with him. Though I maintain that he should play in like the CL games

          We definitely need him for cup ties. Unless if we’re deciding to “eff that” again next season

          I really hope that he has a late mental growth spurt and he fixes his concentration issues after a few seasons behind Raya (or someone else perhaps?). Seems very unlikely though.
