Wood off to Lazio?

I don't think there will be that much transfer activity this year. Let’s face it; it’s likely there will be NO fans in these grounds when the season starts so no ground/season ticket revenue for anyone in Football period thanks to Wuhan Virus. Look at minimum wage on the agenda in the lower leagues it might be "illegal" say PFA but the reality is there is NO money for these players now- welcome to the new normal. As for us, why would Mee as club captain want to stay at a club where he knows the key player in the club and therefore even the manager is looking to ship out in that eventuality. Players talk among themselves like everyone else at a place of work. Unless the money for the club and player is fantastic, I doubt there will be much activity outside the top 6 given financial uncertainty. New normal means FALLING income which for many means more conservative wage levels and less dosh to splash for those clubs with no billionaire owners.

I kind of get that Deadly but what makes you think it will be any different anywhere outside the top 4 clubs so Mee and and our better players shall we say unless it’s top 4 - it’s out of the frying pan into the fire. ( maybe worse ).
