Just getting Slimani out of the training ground is worth it. We are stuck with his wage, but 12 more months, and done.

I said it before -- Slimani is toxic to any locker room. He's proven it everywhere we have sent him. He was scoring goals for fun in Monaco, and they benched him for his attitude. He won't get signed until the last day of the window, and it will be by a team near the bottom of the table desperate for goals, and it will be a loan, because then it's risk free, and if by chance he doesn't have everyone hating him, they can sign him for a free at the end of the season. No one on earth is going to give Slimani a multi-year contract when they can get a "try him out" deal.

RoboFox Posted 1 October 2020 Posted 1 October 2020 1 hour ago, StriderHiryu said: I still can't believe this signing turned out to be so bad. On paper he has the same technical quality (if not better) than Mendy, Praet and maybe even Tielemans. But the fact is toward the end of Puel's first season he had a sustained run in the side and was getting shown up by a academy graduate Choudhury at the time. Ron-Robert Zieler kept some clean sheets for the club, Islam Slimani scored some important goals. Even Ahmed Musa scored some goals and had some good performances for us. Silva literally did nothing of note. A very curious case. I guess the combination of his late registration and subsequent sacking of Shakespeare did him over. His signing sent this place into one of the biggest meltdowns of recent years when it was announced the club had missed the deadline by 14 seconds. He provided a few days of entertainment, if nothing else.

The blucerchiati are set to welcome Adrien Silva on a free transfer Someone tell David it can't possibly be a free, because I was categorically told I talked wee wee for joking such.

Paid a huge transfer fee, huge wages... missed the deadline so he couldn’t play for half a season, the player then turning out to be worse than Matty James. Then ships him out for free and someone calls for a statue ... unbelievable. It’s the equivalent to Indy Kalia getting employee of the month because he paid a premium fee for gone off chicken but managed to get a homeless person to eat it

No one on earth is going to give Slimani a multi-year contract when they can get a "try him out" deal. Not really sure why you've answered my comment with that. I agree. It seems pretty clear to me that Slimani is a nightmare to work with. There are plenty on here who think he should be part of the squad again. I'm certainly not one of them. Nevertheless, there does seem to be plenty of interest, still, and I'd be surprised if we can't offload him by Monday night, if at least on loan.
Lesterlad Posted 2 October 2020 Posted 2 October 2020 It was never his fault in all seriousness that his time here was not a success. He never asked to come here. We put in an offer they accepted. The fact we missed deadline and when he was given the chance he wasn’t right for us is down to us not him. I hope he goes on and be successful inItaly.
Bob Weasel Fox Posted 2 October 2020 Posted 2 October 2020 Heave ho Silva? in all seriousness good luck to the lad shame it didn’t work out here
mozartfox Posted 2 October 2020 Posted 2 October 2020 Another tree felled. Excellent. Just two to go and the Dead-wood has been chopped out.
Blue ROI Posted 2 October 2020 Posted 2 October 2020 He never really recovered from the 5-1 hammering at Man City in February 2018. SImilar to Ghezzal in that he could be good on the ball but hopelessly lacking pace and physicality which dwarfed anything else. Once Maddison and Tielemans arrived he was oe for Hope it goes well for him but his move to the big time floundered sadly.
