Something else which seemingly gets lost

though more on Facebook Numpty groups than on here in fairness: this is not FIFA21 and the club is not buying or selling widgets or objects but people who have their own desires, personal needs, ambitions and so on. If a player really wants to go then pretty much ten times out of ten they will go even if the club really, really doesn't want them to. Yes there are exceptions: but not many.
