Greg2607 Posted 16 January 2023 Share Posted 16 January 2023 I assume they expected Soumare to be this kind of player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GingerrrFox Posted 16 January 2023 Share Posted 16 January 2023 A midfield of Soumare, Braybrooke and RLC has a lovely balance to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post moore_94 Posted 16 January 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 16 January 2023 (edited) Would have to be a loan / transfer that is favourable to us to make up for his wages He already earns over £150k a week and no way should he be coming in as our highest earner Edited 16 January 2023 by moore_94 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STUHILL Posted 16 January 2023 Share Posted 16 January 2023 I have always liked him and wanted us to sign him in the past. However, he has not become the player I thought he would, and this would not transform our midfield in any way. It would however, gives us an extra player of premier league quality who could slot straight in and do a job. I think a loan until the summer would be an OK deal, especially if we are still struggling with financial constraints. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westernpark Posted 16 January 2023 Share Posted 16 January 2023 Big wages, injury prone. This makes sense 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_77 Posted 16 January 2023 Share Posted 16 January 2023 He doesn’t produce a lot but he’d offer us flexibility with his ability to play in the middle or on the right, help us keep possession, and he’s decent in the air. But also, anyone looks good to me right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OntarioFox Posted 16 January 2023 Share Posted 16 January 2023 If this is our answer to a relegation scrap, we might as well sink now and start planning a rebuild on a Championship budget. Average player, another one who I would not trust to have the mentality to fight for the cause. Wrong, wrong, wrong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miquel The Work Geordie Posted 16 January 2023 Share Posted 16 January 2023 Not overly excited by any means but he'd offer us something different at a half-competent level. Could do a lot worse as a stop gap until others in his position are back from injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkyrobot Posted 16 January 2023 Share Posted 16 January 2023 Good player, injured 80% of the time. Will fit right in. 👍🏻 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StriderHiryu Posted 16 January 2023 Share Posted 16 January 2023 A loan for the rest of the season wouldn't be the worst idea. I feel like we are not working hard enough in games at the moment. 5 subs with several midfield options means players can press with more intensity. I'd agree that he's average, but honestly average is better than the form of many in the team at the moment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hackneyfox Posted 16 January 2023 Share Posted 16 January 2023 Stay at Chelsea and rot or join a team and be an integral part of their midfield. Doesnt matter what you earned it depends on what offers you receive, unless he’s another Vestergard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post moore_94 Posted 16 January 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 16 January 2023 Injury wise he looks to be well over his Achilles injury from 2019 and not really injury prone at least Only really a short period out with Covid and his recent calf injury which he looks to be back from in the last 3 years 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

South Shire Fox Posted 16 January 2023 Share Posted 16 January 2023 (edited) If he werent so injury prone then id take him all day, think hes quality personally. Injury prone is not what you need in a relegation battle mind. Would much rather Gallagher if he became available, think he’d be a very good player at our sort of level and would actually give our midfield mobility Edited 16 January 2023 by South Shire Fox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox92 Posted 16 January 2023 Share Posted 16 January 2023 (edited) I've never been over fussed about him but at this moment I'd take him as a stop gap as long as the wages aren't an issue. Didn't realise he was 26. All the hype he got and he's only played 200 games. Edited 16 January 2023 by Fox92 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
