People have lost all objectivity on him. Emotionally they want him out and couldn't give a fuck if it's Joe Dodoo that replaces him they just want him gone.

Thats just not true. I want him gone because I want someone who adds numbers to the team in terms of goals and assists.

Kents numbers as we all know are literally bogging and I don’t care about all the running around he does. He’s a forward and his numbers matter. He’s shite.

He loved Joey Barton as well. So that shows how bad his opinion is.

Watched it again, I count 2 good saves, the rest would be poor goalkeeping if they found the net. 

Genuinely think you could make a better highlight video of Ross McCrorie and he's only played 4 matches. 

Try 4 minutes

His assists are good, his goals over the past couple of seasons have been shite.

This argument's been had before anyway, there's no point going over it again. Genuinely don't think there's any chance he's staying either though until it's confirmed there's always hope.

Me: “Oh look the transfer thread’s hot, maybe there’s a new/exciting link people are discussing.”
 

@Laudrupsleftfoot: “The reason why Ryan Kent is so brillian…”

No idea what you're on about with Barton.

I 'love' Tillman, that mean he's shite too aye?

Lawrence?

Cantwell? Raskin?

You support 5 teams you mongo.

Grealish on the verge of winning a treble 

In the context of his contribution to them being more than his numbers which have been shite although much better since the turn of the year. Ball carrying, retention, drawing falls, freeing up space etc.

He'd never survive Turkish football

Has there ever been a success story involving a British player at that level?

All just buzzwords to defend an £100m signing. It's PR.

You don't think Saka, Vinicius Jr and Mbappe carry the ball or draw fouls? That only Grealish is bringing that to the table?

FWIW Grealish is playing pretty well atm. But when he wasn't, it's just PR. 

[The Godfather 75,773]

Kents shite end of.

[bluenoz 32,520]

Goals and assists measure a forwards worth, not by beating the same player twice.

The Turkish fans will eat him alive.

I gave him the benefit of the doubt for the longest time, but my patience ran out this year.

Kazim-Richards has done well out there over a couple of spells. Obviously his heritage is Turkish so cheating a bit.

@Laudrupsleftfoot

I'll die on this hill with you man.

[DeanMK 5,243]

They always say that you don't realise what you've got until it's gone.

I think with Kent, it's the opposite.

If we get someone in who can actually do the numbers on the left wing, it'll be more of a case of not realising what you're missing until you have it.

Kent is flashy and can look good on the ball, but he fluffs so many chances in the final third it's actually fucking criminal. He's been a passenger for too long, and one that people have been duped into believing is some sort of top tier player.

Les Ferdinand, Dean Saunders and Barry Douglas won the Turkish Cup, Ian Wilson (80s Leicester and Scotland one) won a League and Cup double over there.

Did he dupe people on our run to the Europa League final?

Did Scot parker no go out there too?

[The Specky Forum Organiser 69,624]

Clutching to the Pep/Grealish stuff so much is absolutely bizarre.

Nope, Dalian Atkinson and Scott Carson also played there and were decent, though didn’t win anything.

Bizarrely this random guy from Bristol City has won two Leagues and a Cup in Turkey

Fair enough, only players I recall going over there was Boyd, Miller and Stevie Mallan 😂 

Boyd going there after complaining it was too hot to play the Scottish Cup final always cracks a smile.

Carson that's who I was thinking of. Ferdinand in Turkey as a youngster just sounds bizarre now.

Weird hearing Scottish players going abroad. I remember Gary O'Connor going to Russia and looking incredible.
