If he keeps playing like this, it will be a no-brainer. You could literally sign him for the agreed fee and sell him the day after for double the money.

That’s what some people said about Greenwood.

Although, given today’s news, that’s what we could have done with Greenwood….
 
Not sure they need to worry, we may have agreed a fee but we would still need to agree wages with him and that is the snag in the deal.

May be true, may be crap, but I heard the agreed fee was over £5,000,000
 
He's basically still doing his pre-season. That 90 will do him good. He ran the show in the first half. Proper player.
 
Anyone know what his injury is?
Heckingbottom said in his interview after Saturday's game that he should be back in training this week. Doesn't actually say what the injury is, but I think it was mentioned on here that he was holding his groin towards the end of the Wrexham match.

Can listen to the interview on the link below. He talks about the injuries to Devine and Osmajic from around the 2:10 mark.

Yeah he was, about 85 minutes in. He did carry on and ran around a fair bit after that so hopefully it’s nothing major.
 
Scored last night in a 2-1 defeat to Italy for England u20s according to Flash Scores

We’ve a player in the squad for England u19, u20 and u21s this break - unsure why North End Twitter didn’t include him and Shay Reid in the list of players on duty, but included Small & Armstrong?

When everyone is fit, there's Small, Devine, and Armstrong for the U21s and under, Reid for the Irish U19s, Osmajic and Vukcevic for Montenegro, Thordarson for Iceland, Jebbison for Canada, Brady for Ireland, and McCann and Thompson for Northern Ireland. Maybe one or two more youth internationals on our books, too?

Hard to think of a season when we had as many internationals at the same time.

Jayden Danns scored the goal according to the official match report. Devine not listed in the squad. Looks like Flashscore got it wrong.

 
Devine wasn’t called up. He’s too old anyway



Only turned 21 last month didn't he?

I'm sure I've seen 22yr olds playing for the U21s if they were U21 at the start of the year. So assume the same for the U20s?

I'm guessing he'd have been involved if he was fit.

Think it goes off when the tournaments start. So if you start the qualifiers eligible, you can play the whole tournament from groups to final even if your age becomes ‘ineligible’ during that time frame.

Ah, so he is ineligible by a month, that was officially the first game of the U20 season. It's fine, he'll just have to oust Nwaneri out of the U21 team.

I stand corrected! just been back to check again and it’s still showing as a Devine goal there though so I’m not going loopy!
