Dahnsouff

That feels a little naughty from Villa

Been at work so only just catching up, was he on loan at Frosinone alongside Okoli? (In an alternate reality, was at work, but was actually playing and finishing the amazing game, Still Wakes The Deep on GamePass)

Thought he was Loan Manager?

Oh destroyer of dreams.....

Was rewatching some clips from his games at Lille this morning and I was trying to figure out what he was there to do. It was quite difficult to understand what his role was, perhaps a strong man with the muscle to hold off and recapture the ball but it was certainly not obvious! Agree he seemed more involved, some passes, but would not say he charging all over the place. More I watched, the more I could not understand what skill set we thought we would be getting, and that is not to disrespect him as he can clearly play, is tidy on the ball, but to what end was he recruited was my conclusion!

Do not disagree, but to suggest he is a cheaper option is just a different sort of guess.

Hope we do also get someone new in @StanSP we are pretty bloody light in midfield!!

Would hope this is the case, but is it? Wouldn't he have got a signing on fee as if he were any other out of contract guy? Plus there is potentially a higher watermark with his last contract here?

Thing is, Soumare was never a lung busting box-to-box midfielder even when at Lille, so the type of effort people seem to be mistakenly expecting is not really his thing. No idea what he really is to be honest, but I just hope whatever he was bought for finally arrives if he is to stay.

Bunch of diving twats these England lads.

Both sides are going to be rudely buggered by the Spanish

Full on Kevin Keegan, I would LOVE it, were it to happen.

Good time to turn it on Phil

Another yellow for damaging the equipment Dumfries

Can you imagine if that had been given against us?

Ok.

Why is the arse is that a penalty

Cheats

Yes, I agree with that, but not that any of the names we are linked with are worth us spending 50m on.

We won't be buying him for 50m, it is just rage inducing click bait.

Daka by an absolute mile.

Love mine too, but I will say that charging network is not yet up to snuff, as mentioned, and he cost is prohibitive. Only got one through work scheme with Octopus.

Fair enough, is he a Vestergaard level passer? Not sure why he never got a look if he was.

Yes, I think those expecting a polar opposite will be dismayed, as ball playing is de rigueur these days.

Assume Enzo liked ball playing defenders, hence why Souttar was out, but curious about Coady as in that case as he is more a ball player than bonkers Faes.
