if he is the moody type, graham should have a chat with a few charlton players (and the tattooed ex-posh fella maddison) before signing. )))
According to golden data source EFL hub Twitter: Palmer will be WBA number 1 keeper next season unless bought by 3 listed championship clubs and 1 prem club (they listed them I just can’t remember who they said and it doesn’t really matter because they’ve made it up probably.)

Think Johnstone is nailed on for a move providing the market has any movement in it at all next year so it's not ridiculous.
Not totally sure about second half of the season Palmer being number 1 for a team with prem aspirations, but he is decent.
Agreed but he’s risen to the challenge over the past 2 seasons so wouldn’t rule it out.

If Sean moves on I have to say that long term Southampton would be a far better place for him than Chelsea. He'd end up being farmed out constantly

You have to be playing to develop though.

Not until 31st August apparently. That would make him the youngest in his year group if it follows the school year which starts on the 1st September.

I'm quite happy for Chelsea and Saints to get involved in a bidding war. With Chelsea in particular though, I would insert a clause to get a percentage of any loan fees they receive for him. I would argue that amounts to a transfer fee.

Watch this space for when Freddy Draper turns 17.

Pity we didn't play him this year then!

I thought that was what MA was hinting at last week. He's currently 4th choice left back I reckon.
Southampton have a good record with youth development, and Chelsea do as well albeit not always with Chelsea.

I think that might just be a default age/DOB on the website.

You are probably right. The ever reliable Wikipedia has two different dates of birth for him - 31st August 2003 and 14th March 2003,

Which is better than this Irish site, Soccerscene.ie, which bizarrely gives his Date of Birth as 25th November 1845,

Perhaps they're confusing him with the Portuguese novelist, José Maria de Eça de Queirós, which is an easy mistake to make.
