Watching Palace and I can’t say I’ve watched much of them over this season, but Wharton is refreshing to watch. A midfielder who looks to play the ball forward on virtually every occasion is now such a rarity.
28 May 2026 08:32:55
Wharton has agreed to sign for Liverpool, according to someone on their page, Tom.
Anderson has turned down Man Utd and agreed to sign for Man City, who are not interested in Enzo Fernandez, who will likely join Real Madrid if they pay the £100 million asking price.
Jorgenson has asked to leave and will not be replaced, due to the fact that Mike Penders will compete for the No.1 shirt next season, and will play in the World Cup for Belgium. His rise has been pretty dramatic, and it might lead to Sanchez leaving as well.
Lots of stories.

Rpd, I was impressed with the Wharton performance last night, but I honestly haven't seen enough of him to truly judge him as a player. I am not sure we need him.
Anderson also looks a solid performer, and it makes sense for City to get him, as Rodri looks to be leaving.
Of course, it could all turn upside down at City if they do get a substantial points deduction.
I think RM would like to include players in any Enzo deal. My mate tells me we are interested in the young Ch we missed out on last season.

Tom, is that that defender Dean Huijsen?
Is he a RCB? I seem to remember him earning rave reviews at Bournemouth.
28 May 2026 09:37:38
That's him. I am useless with names.
I would be astonished if RM agreed to let him go as part of any deal. I think he was the best young CH in the Premiership.

As usual, I am going to disagree with everyone. I just don't get why people rate Wharton. He's okay, but nothing special. Anderson, however, looks top class. Huijsen is the best young CB in the PL, I think Josh, Levi and Hato might have something to say about that.
28 May 2026 20:11:27
Hato and Josh didn't play in the Premiership that season, and Huijsen was far more consistent than Colwill that season. In fact, LC, in my opinion, only showed his quality for about the last fifteen games of that season.
28 May 2026 20:50:20
Tom, I didn't realise you were talking about the one season he played in the PL. I will bow to your superior knowledge, as it appears you watched a lot of Bournemouth games.
28 May 2026 20:57:58
I can't say I watched a lot of Bournemouth games, but it's not hard to work out he played better in the Premiership than Hato, who was just starting his career in Holland, and Josh, who probably only appeared in very few games.
I also remember the criticism Colwill was getting for a long spell of that season.
I hardly had to be Sherlock Holmes to work that one out.
28 May 2026 21:21:22
Tom, or should I say Sherlock, interesting to know how you deduced that he was the best young CB in the PL. Presumably, you had assistance from Dr Watson.
28 May 2026 21:39:15
Dr Watson would certainly help, but so does remembering who was playing in the Premiership that season and watching a few games.
