José Sa is 29 in January. I don't think "has the making of" comes into it with him. He is what he is and he has stupid moments in every single game, it really isn't weird. I'm not keen on goalkeepers who pass the ball straight to opposition forwards in the box, fake injury and then we concede or come for crosses for no reason and then drop it. All those have happened in October and November alone. He's not very good.That's harsh on Romain, who is a more than capable squad player at this level and has never let us down. The rest I'm inclined to agree, apart from Sa, who you've got some weird dislike of - he's a good goalkeeper and as someone above said, we just need to reign him in a little, but he has the makings of a very good goalkeeper. Podence can go from looking like the answer to all our problems to completely ineffectual within the blink of an eye. I do wonder if that's because we're asking the players in those positions to do too much (same with Adama etc). The old "give the ball to the winger and see if they can magic up something special" tactic that we seem to have persisted with for far too long.
Ultimately, I'd rather we were bringing quality players in, rather than losing any more.
None of those are quality players, some of them have served us well to their best of their ability, some have been a let down.
On Saiss, most people want us to sign a CH, he never plays in midfield any more, he's 32 before the season finishes, at some point you cut him loose.
