I have no problem with players/clubs deferrig contract talks until season end because its
1. The players way of saying ill back my self to improve form, therefore negotiating a better deal.
2. Clubs way of awarding contracts on performance rather than potential. As a young list we show alot of potential, but as a 60 gamer we need to see performance from Watts before re-signing him.
This article says nothing other than clubs are interested in an uncontracted player.
