Is that in order or just a list of the best ones? Also taking into account him playing with various injuries, moving positions all the time, his first season of competitive football, and being in a team that wasn't exactly known for fluid football, it is very impressive.
I can't believe people can just write him off, or put him in their list of transfer outs to make money.
I hear we want to buy 2 CMs. The way I see it, is if he plays a whole season for us, does anyone believe that he will be worse technically or performance wise over a seasons than, Capoue, Paulinho, Sissoko (first season), Dembele (TS season) Stambouli or any other shocking CMs we've had. THese 3 in different ways were very very poor in various ways, to the point where it required 2 academy players, both lesser CMs than Onomah to have to carry our midfield over 2 seasons, and yet we still spunked a load of money and wages and still managed despite their poor perfromances.
Onomah would have to do incredibly badly to be worse than those guys, and does anyone see that happening? and if so what form do they see it in? Making horror passes? DO you think he will be solely responsbile for goals. If we can manage either way surely the best thing to do, would be use the money we would spend on 2 CMs on one quality CM and shows some balls and let Onomah be the other one. There is no guarantee the top quality one, won't end up a poor player themselves, so buying 2 is just risk averse when they could also end up like the aforementioned players. GIve Onomah a chance, and use the money to get a proper player.

As no one is really paying attention to the general youth thread I'll post this here it's clips of Hudson-Odoi https://streamable.com/547nj
I don't know what it would take but if we could get him for under 10m I'd do it. I can easily see him being like an Henry on the left, or even a Robben carrying the ball down' the wing and cutting in.

nah you don't care about the team's performance if you want onomah given a chance because either poch starts him every match or he wouldn't be involved at all and onomah is going to cost us points whenever he plays, according to some fans
Why would he leave Fulham for West Ham ?
£ obviously

The Spammers are in desperate need of a new right back. Byram hasn't worked out and Zabaleta is a shadow of the player he was (playing in this physical league anyway.)
Fredericks has ended up as a very decent attacking full back at Champ level. I've seen quite a bit of him because I've been trying to keep an eye on Sessegnon. Will Fredericks make the step up like Creswell (who I think is actually very overrated) or struggle quite badly like Byram? Both were excellent attacking full-backs at Championship level.
Fredericks still possesses a lot of pace, injuries have meant that he's not quite the speed demon he was when he was a kid. His final ball, positioning, movement and dribbling are decent but not outstanding and I would have to say his defending is not particularly great. What he will give you is lots of pace on the break.

I hope he doesn't go to West Ham. A club that lacks any sort of defensive organisation and with a fan base of utter garbage.
He should really stay at Fulham, show what he can do while playing regular Premier League football and potentially get a bigger & better move than those idiots in the "London Race Track"......
When I look at the two clubs, Fulham seems to be the better place to be, a young ambitious team who could spring a few surprises on a number of Premier League teams.

he is 25, turning 26 later this year so likely has 2, max 3 contracts left. if spammers offer 5k/10k week or whatever more + significantly bigger signing bonus of course he should take it.

Why 'of course' ?
i dont think fredericks has made a lot of money so far in his career and a professional athletes career isnt very long.
gambling on signing a worse financial contract so you might get a move to a top8 club next summer is not very smart because its a sum of multiple reasons that arent only in his control. just because fulhams project is "ambitious" and "they could surprise a few teams" and then fredericks earns a move to better club than spammers its more likely that fulham will get relegated back to championship and fredericks never has a chance to get the £ he couldve made at spammers.

Fulham could be a smart place to send KWP out on loan
Or, or, or, and im just spitballing here, we dont send him out on loan and give him a chance here. Look at Trent Alexander-Arnold. Given his opportunity due to injuries, had a great season and is now going to the World Cup and started the Champions League final where he did very well. KWP is supposedly the better player. He did very well in his 2 PL starts this season and deserves the promotion to the rotation. Sell Trippier. The best chance to make a big profit on him is now.

That's what I'd prefer as well. But I'm not holding my breath
They already have a replacement, he came on for Fredericks in the play off semi

Cyrus Christie, apparently a very good performer at Championship level. Signed in January in the knowledge that Fredericks was out of contract in the summer.
