As a defensive midfielder I'm guessing he will be a replacement for Kamara who has probably reached the stage he wants to move. Kamara and Davis going likely... makes sense I guess Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevemac 5,002 Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 just because he is on a free and playing for relegation fodder doesn't mean he's a bad player, John Lundstrum was in the same boat (and many on here want John Swift from Reading, who only survived relegation by the skin of their teeth in the championship) lewislaudrup 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also RM: I’ve never heard of this guy. He’s not good enough. Except our untapped league seems to be exclusively Belgium and the French second division with a few hopefuls from lower leagues down South thrown in. There isn’t even a slight hint of going after players in the Dutch league, Denmark and Norway which is either better or roughly the same standard as our league. Lundstram turning it around has saved Wilsons arse because in 2021/22 we signed Bacuna, Lundstram, Sakala, Ofoborh, Diallo and Ramsey. That screams to me don’t know what I’m doing, I’ve fucked the summer oh look there’s Aaron Ramsey. The year before that he spent £7m on Roofe and Hagi who have contributed very well, but what else would you expect for £7m when he wasted over £3m on Itten and Wright in the same season.

He's signed McLaughlin, Bassey, Balogun, Roofe, Hagi, Lundstram, Sakala, Wright, Zukowski - all of whom I'd keep in our squad Itten, Simpson, Bacuna are fails and Bacuna was moved on swiftly.

They both demanded fees also so not really comparable. Laudrupsleftfoot and HG5 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Beast 9,226 Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 21 hours ago, Laudrupsleftfoot said: On paper it's another pointless signing. Absolutely he plays in front of the back 4 or as a defensive minded CM. We have Lundstram, Jack and Sands who all play that role and arguably Davis and Kamara as well. Even if the last two are not here next year we still seem quite strong in that role. Surely whatever funds we have need to be targeted at actual weak areas not bringing someone in just because they happen to be available.

bluenoz 30,911 Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 We spent £2.6m on transfers this season, mostly on Bacuna. How the fuck we are in the Europa semis is mind-boggling based on that. When we lift the trophy and collect the dosh, this unknown player will be a distant memory. billscott 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
