Do people not follow interviews, the club has made it VERY clear that no signings will be made until players are let go. we are at the FFP mercy because we have too many players on the wage bill, guarantee any links to players thatll cost an arm is all speculation. 100%

The club will be making enquiries about players available in preparation encase a player leaves.

 

They will be doing lots of footwork now, in the event of Youri leaving.

 

It's called being proactive rather then reactive.

Technically a brilliant player and has bags of flair. Just gives me cengiz under vibes as opposed to a genuine quality wide player who will contribute goals and assists.

I'm a moroccan i can tell you all about him. He's a very good player on his day. Sampaoli limited him last year but he played both as a cutting in right winger and left winger. Given his limited role he didn't do bad at all. However, he has had some issues with attitude problems in the past. It's a French born thing. Just like fofana and rabiot. I reckon he'd do well here. But I'd be concerned if he's expected to be the "madueke type". He was naturally a cam. He's best at cutting inside. In 12 starts he had 4 goals and assists at Marseille. I'd take him for the right deal, but he isn't going to be our savior alone. Our issues are really with the fact we can't offload bad contracts and Rodgers' incompetence. A very good squad player though. Under a good manager he could do wonders. A bargain as well.

Cheers for the insight mate, like you say if the deal was right then yeah bring him in, we are so limited out wide it’s laughable.

Seems like a BR type of player.

Until he falls out with BR and is banished to the reserves.

really worried that this is where we’re at. 

 

He’s a player who averaged a goal contribution once every 4 games from attacking mid… which isn’t good enough imo.

 

but there could be some truth, why? 1, because he can also play on either wing. 2, he’s tall which we’ve said we’d look for. 3 he went on loan to marseille which means he’d probably be available for a loan to buy bargain basement option.  Which we have lapped up in the last few seasons. 

 

I’m not impressed but this could have legs 

How is a goal contribution once in four games not good enough? That’s better than most of our current team!

Newcastle have signed isak what a signing that is

[kingkisnorbo]

And people think Newcastle weren’t anywhere near our level still. They’ll finish miles above us.

How many of their team gets into our team?

 

They absolutely should be finishing beneath us but they won't because they're well run, have the backing of their supporters, have a manager that is focussed and knows what it's doing and a squad full of confidence.

Didn't people say that about Villa last season?

 

You may well be right, but 3 games is a very small sample size to make a real judgement. 

 

Everton were 6th after 3 games and Arsenal was 20th last season

I don’t see any trajectory but upwards given the amount of backing and unilateral support they have. Isak is a game changer.

There is a good chance they are, but as Everton have shown with 500m spent in recent times it's not that easy. 

 

Not convinced by Isak as yet, he had a very average season last year.

For starters, when translating from certain leagues you’ve got to downgrade that. Ghezzal would have had similar numbers in france

 

Would you genuinely be happy with barnes only getting an assist or goal every 4 games? That’s the amount he got in his first season for us where he was heavily criticized. 

 

since then he’s been getting a contribution every 2 games on average.  That’s the standard we want competition for. 

 

In ayoze perez’s first season, one where we felt he wasn’t good enough, even he still had a better goal contribution than 1 in 3. so 1 in 4 is not good. 
 

Now i’m not saying that tells the full story on a player but it’s not great reading.
