Heis minutes played per season are pretty low... but he's idolised by their fans for being a great club man. We might be buying their Andy King. I don't know the fella, he might be brilliant, but there are enough things for people to be quite reasonably worried about. Look at is goalscoring record put it like this he scores more than our midfield 1 thing we are lacking goals from midfield

FantasticMrFox&Son Posted 3 July 2017 Posted 3 July 2017 Quality player, and the price...compared to some over-rated Premier League alternatives.....got to be a reasonable option that would strengthen the squad.

The usual suspects are trying to argue he's magnificent, but on the same night that yet another rumor comes through about Mahrez leaving, we are being linked with Iborra. I'm not saying he's a bad player but I'd so love us to be able to sign a really special one. If we start again next season with Drinkwater or Ndidi out injured such that Amartey is lumbering around in central midfield, I think I'm gonna have to cry.

He nearly went Sunderland last year which speaks volumes. He'll be okay I suppose but spending good money on okay players isn't going to get us any higher up the table. He won't out Drinkwater or Ndidi and will rival James for first reserve midfielder, we'll signing the Spanish Andy King.

brucey Posted 3 July 2017 Posted 3 July 2017 12m is an okay price for a good versatile bench player, technically we're just trading off schluppy who can cover LM/LB, for someone who can cover just about every position

UPinCarolina Posted 3 July 2017 Posted 3 July 2017 He's an upgrade and we're running 3-5-2 in the future, I think. Mendy out, Amartey on loan.

AKCJ Posted 3 July 2017 Posted 3 July 2017 3 minutes ago, Babylon said: He's club captain, he rarely plays to be the actual team captain. He's averaged 42 appearances a season in his time at Sevilla?
Craig Posted 3 July 2017 Posted 3 July 2017 He averaged a goal or assist every 189 minutes for Sevilla last season. Andy King averaged a goal every 897 minutes last season, no assists. I'd be happy with the Spanish Andy King, that is actually nothing like Andy King.

Happy Fox Posted 3 July 2017 Posted 3 July 2017 We would all like a player of Gylfi's caliber but we ain't going to get him unfortunately. If's it's a choice of this lad or Clucas there is only one winner. Hopefully Rudkin has heard of the likes of Boudebouz, Josip Illic.
