A player has left unexpectedly at the end of the window, reportedly for £10m when he's nearly out of contract, and it frees up £70k per week. You can't say no to that. If no one comes in, it won't be for lack of effort, I'm sure. Plus it's fucking Jonjo Shelvey, we should have been shot of the cunt years ago. Rewriting history like the Trumpists you know you all are. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 19834 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 I’m not against letting Shelvey go in the slightest. But we’ve got such a massive opportunity this season. Would be a shame if we came unstuck due to injuries in midfield because we didn’t replace him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rewriting history like the Trumpists you know you all are. The Shelvey love in on Twitter has been doing my head in. You'd think he was Rob Lee ffs. We have Willock who can slot in at CM. Anderson a gamble if things really get to shite. It's not a great situation and would have been ideal to get a replacement for Shelvey but this is where our squad is. If either of Schar or Botman are injured we are screwed. If Tripper is, we are screwed. There's weaknesses that will take a few windows to resolve. The club has been clear in their approach that they will go only for the right man. Bit of patience and perspective needed. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex 30442 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Letting Shelvey go is a no brained in the circumstances even if you can’t get a replacement. You’d be fucked as far as CL qualification goes anyway if he needed to play many games 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Class for him, class for a Mike Ashley built team or class sitting on the bench until he leaves for free in the summer? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, his form was so good he kept Bruno out of the side for a couple of months. Then he retained his starting place after Bruno finally broke through and he continued to start as our “number six” as the run that kept us up continued Edited January 31, 2023 by Dr Gloom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 19834 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 What I liked most about Shelvey last season was he allowed Bruno to play further forwards 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 34563 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 I like him and I really enjoyed seeing him buy in and play well for Howe, probably mainly for what it said about the manager tbh. I hope he doesn't leave and go back to being a lazy fucker, would be nice to see him end his career on a relative high. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polarboy 2124 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 With this three match suspension for Bruno you'd hope the club would bite the bullet and get a player in even if they have to overpay to do it, but with FFP and how little time is left perhaps it's not possible.

OTF 6187 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Bruno not looking as cheeful as usual (and rightfully so) and Isak being propped up by some support staff.
