    Great video Alfie. As a Cardiff supporter (for my sins), I was fortunate enough to watch Philogene last season and even though he’s reached new heights at Hull with his direct output, he’d produce pieces of skill each game that would leave me lost for words.
    At the start of his time at Cardiff, many supporters reactively wrote him off - so it’s great to see how well he’s doing now. I’d also say with confidence that he’s the best player I’ve ever seen in a Cardiff shirt and while he only scored five goals for us, I’ll forever be indebted to him for the joy and excitement he provided in such a miserable, tedious season.
    A unique and absolutely jaw-dropping talent, who, like you say, can achieve anything within the game if all goes to plan.
    Keep up the good work👍

    Lots of great players in the champ with potential to be premier league players, but Walker-Peters has already proven to be a very good player at that level.

His progress this season has been phenomenal he's now in the England U21 squad and he scored a wondergoal against Hull (sorry Alfie) last week. I don't think it's a matter of us trying to keep him at the end of the season it's a matter of how much we can get for him I think £30m+

    There's not much alarming going on, but it is the best season, at minimum in the last 40 years when they had World Cup Winner José Luis Brown on the team, and it's unusual to see the historically small club doing very well. For the first time in their history, they can dream of European football.
    Plus hey, you can have a lot of Brest related puns.
    As a player, how would you feel about yourself if you were in an in-between status of too good for the Championship, but not good enough for the top division?

    Cardiff's bench seats Manolis Siopis, a Greek defensive midfielder whose workrate far more than compensates for his diminutive shape. I saw him up close for 4 years at Panionios, and he was the unanimous MVP for the two that led to Europa League qualification, including Panionios' only 21st century title push. Unfortunately, Greek managers and Olympiacos are a classic mistake that results in many talented Greek young players placed on ice in favour of multi-million established Champions League players, so he lost momentum and is no longer a kid. But, if signed from Panionios 7 years ago, you bet you arses he would be a well-cemented Prem player. Not a Caicedo or a Rice, but a Siopis is more than good enough.
    Cheers for including Whittaker as an honourable mention. Argyle's attacking line are very good overall, but the "no loan" rule really screwed us. As did the reality that almost everyone was on loan. I miss Azaz so much 💔

    As a Liverpool fan I deffo think something has happened between Klopp and Carvalho or his behaviour has led to the coaching staff not trusting him.

    There was also rumours going around that archer was also leaving . I guy that villa fans were desperate to see in the first team after his successful loan spells BUT when Jaden left it seemed we were all in agreement that it was Jaden we wanted to stay !

  • @tajj7
    @tajj7 4 місяці тому +4

    As a Saints fan, I may be biased but IMO hands down Walker-Peters right now IS the best player in the Championship, potential is all well and good and some of those players might get better than him but they are not better than him now, he would be a good player for PL top 10 teams, no idea how we kept him. Also Adam Armstrong statistically puts every other wide player in the league in the shade for goals and assists, and is probably the hardest working player in the league as well and one of the quickest. Harwood-Bellis I think has the highest ceiling of any player mentioned, the guy is a complete player he is the closest thing to early Van Dijk I have seen, I hope we get promoted just to activate his transfer clause and sign him permanently as I think he is a player who in a few years clubs will be bidding £70-80 million plus for him.

The entire squad from the season before going out on loan due to ridiculous clauses so barely any money coming in. Players saying they want to stay the leaving at the first opportunity. Players going on strike. Our team for the first 5 games or so was absolutely dog shit, the away game against Birmingham was a prime example of that. The seasons going well for us, Leicester are just a massive anomaly
