Sol thewall Bamba Posted 29 September 2020 Share Posted 29 September 2020 We're never getting rid of this absolute donkey are we. Surely this is the last year on his contract? Just get WBA to pay as much of his wage as possible and get him gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kristianity77 Posted 29 September 2020 Share Posted 29 September 2020 Don't understand the hate for Slimani. He's a quality striker just didn't fit in here for whatever reason. But he's succeeded every single club he's played at bar here. But let's not forget goals he scored like Porto etc. The weird thing is, if he had a full run in the side for a season, he would probably bag 15 to 20 goals he just never got the chance. Personally, I'd keep him. Vardy most of the time, Vardy and slim when it's desperation time and it's crosses in to the box for the last ten. He has his uses. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not strictly true, before here he played in the Algerian league for a couple of clubs then did well over three seasons at Sporting. He did okay initially for us, but was terrible at Newcastle when he went on loan and ended up getting sent back to us, the same at Fenerbahçe. He did well at Monaco but the fact he scored a decent amount of goals and they have made no attempt to sign him permanently tells you a lot. He’s had 4 different managers here, and not be given an opportunity again shows you all you need to know about the guy. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He went to the barcodes with an injury and only made four apearances but got two assists. So a bit harsh.

Firstly, numerous managers have not fancied him here. Secondly, his attitude here generally with younger players was poor and was not liked by a number of experienced players, Thirdly BR has openly stated at a fans forum he does not want or play with a lump or target man up front so he has no future at LCFC. He does not fit in terms of attitude, footballing ability or within the way we play so I think that is probably enough reasons to get rid. i don’t get why fans think they know better than multiple managers - get over it and move on he’s a complete waste of space - quicker he goes the better ! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think you should probably check how many strikers in the PL actually scored 15-20 goals last season and re-evaluate that statement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikey_b Posted 29 September 2020 Share Posted 29 September 2020 dont understand the "keep him" thoughts, he has not played for us in ages and probably never will again so... keep him? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sly Posted 30 September 2020 Share Posted 30 September 2020 Slimani will go to France I’d imagine. Quite a few clubs have been linked to him over the past few days. It seems Sampdoria have won the race for Silva. All quiet on the Ghezzal front, since we rejected another loan option from Fiorentina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've clearly forgotten how poor he was at holding up the ball and heading. He caused issues at the training ground (yes I do know that) basically sulked when he wasn't included in the team every week. He's always scored in poor European leagues. Didn't cut it in the prem.

He doesn't fit in here, if what I hear is true, he doesn't get on with several of the squad. It would have been great if he'd been a massive success here but it's time to admit defeat and move on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
