Curtis Jones

Where?? He's a player i was shocked we didnt go in for when he moved from Empoli. Quality player

Harv don't you talk to me about players after you spending the summer saying we should get Bowen in if Salah left




Yeah it was me that suggested Bowen and you were totally against the idea, but I will lie blatantly if I like.

I think he’s going to be a big player for us in the near future. Got all the tools and his decision making will improve. Can be frustrating but that’s all young ones at that age.

We can’t compare him to Thiago or any elite midfielder because none of those were as good as they are now at jones age.

Thiago was not as good as he would become at that age, but he was still good enough to break into a Barca team at the same age, and it was a Barca team that had the likes of Xavi, Fabregas, Iniesta, Busquets, and Mascherano in it.

Just had a look and at 21 Thiago started 32 games in the 2011/12 season for that Barca team and had a further 12 appearances from the bench. So safe to say that at 21 Thiago was mixing it with some of the then best midifelders in the world.

Seem to recall Thiago being very highly rated as a young player though and being seen as a nailed on future world class player.

Easy to forget just how good Thiago was at a young age though. Just googled and he had only turned 23 when he left Barca and joined Bayern.

Not that I am looking to compare him and Jones though, other than saying that Jones looks like he is learning from Thiago and looks like he is trying to add aspects of what Thiago does to his own game.

Do agree that there is something about Jones that makes one think he may have a good future with us once he gets a bit more experience under his belt.

Okay.

[baitman]

Then sell

[danperkins]

Yup, designed for when we sell.

[RedReet]

Doesn't make sense. He'd 2.5 years left on his current contract, so why offer him a new longer contract on better terms that is probably worth more than his transfer value? Where are we making money on this deal?

Unless......... Unless..........


They want him to stay until 2027......

Really good news.

[Venton]

Really good news.

Yes, really likes Jones. An intelligent player who doesn't waste the ball very often.

What was his wage before this new contract? Was it in line with a first team fringe players salary? Would you do a role at work and not get paid for it?

This. I don't understand the mocking of him here.
