Somemightsay7 2,427 Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 0 goals and 1 assist in 13 league games and has started 1 of the last 7 games after being dropped in October. That's a low standard for saying someone is doing ok. I'd rather have Lowry back. Malkytfp1, JackAlex93 and AberfeldyBlue 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueVanguard 6,694 Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 Recalling him is never really straight forward. Usually with loan moves they are things in place for recalls etc. Could even be a small fine to pay out or the fact we might end up paying his full wage again while his loan club might have been covering his wages or a percentage of it. Some loan moves might not even allow a recall if a deal is cemented of a future fee also. I have heard that contracts these days are a lot more creative shall we say Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The prick managed to fall out with Sakala ffs! I have no issue with Hagi coming back wanting to make a starting position his; whether or not he is capable would be Clement’s decision. I do think we now have a manager who is capable of handling the situation. Which leads back to the original point of out of the three options: - continue with Lammers getting game time - spend some of our limited resources on a backup to Cantwell / Lawrence and divert resources from budget for other positions - bring back Hagi my preference would be Hagi. Out of interest which of those would be your preference? Regardless of how that scumbag felt about Hagi is irrelevant. He said himself he wanted to play and he wasn't getting game time here, and he still won't. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing in competitive league and getting significant game time, and come summer hopefully we get some 4-5m offer for him, take the money and run. Fast. I’d fact check his time on the park mate, don’t believe he’s getting as many minutes as we’d have liked tbh. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hadron Collider 31,018 Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 Hagi just played the last half hour against Real Madrid there. Madrid won 1-0. He was shite. Too slow even for the Spanish league. Sell. BlueAvenger 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMightyGer 46 Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 Given the amount of injuries we have at the moment it makes sense to recall our loan players (if possible) and let Phil get a proper look at them. Surely Hagi is a better option for us than Lammers. ayrshireranger 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestCoastGer 53 Posted December 23, 2023 Author Share Posted December 23, 2023 Basic point is this: we need an LB and a striker. If some kind of deal for Shankland happens and we get an LB it looks like that'll be £7-8m (I heard £2.5m Shankland and assume £5m for a decent LB w Euro experience...). We are on our arse/bare bones at CAM and having Hagi back wouldn't kill us, plus he can't be worse than Lammers. Has no-one seen the stuff about if Dessers gets injured Lammers is the only guy who can play 9? FFS we need more people in. Even if he's not the answer long-term, needs must... ayrshireranger 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spectre 1,663 Posted December 23, 2023 Share Posted December 23, 2023 I've watched him in a few games for Alaves and if I hadn't I might think he's the answer, but he's really not. He was never particularly pacey but he seems to run in slow motion now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
