ozvaldo Posted 31 August 2022 Share Posted 31 August 2022 0 goals, 0 assists in the 15 games he played last season according to Google. Yep, sounds like the sort of player we need. Well done, Big Susan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeremie Boga isn't an unknown quantity that could turn out to be a genius bit of business. He's a known quantity that's has inconsistent to poor end product and doesn't represent an improvement in our team in the position he's best at. I'm not really sure where you're going with that. I appreciate the impulse to be optimistic but this is a fairly objectively poor bit of business, albeit I can understand it is late in the window and options have narrowed. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shiv Posted 31 August 2022 Share Posted 31 August 2022 If he’s super cheap or it’s a loan then fair enough. If we sign him for what Atlanta signed Lookman for that would just be a p*ss take 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was comparing him more to the like of Simpson, Albrighton, Huth et al, players who were off casts. Unless I'm mistake there has been no details of the a possible deal so hard to gauge if its poor business. If its a loan with a option to buy, at worse it provides some cover for Barnes. If it a perm, I would judge it differently. People are just jumping to conclusion based on little or no detail.

ARM1968 Posted 31 August 2022 Share Posted 31 August 2022 I am losing the will. People are paid good money to scout and find players. This bloke is NOT good enough on any metric - possibly pace, but only just. rather take a punt on Bowler and see where we end up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it a perm, I would judge it differently. If its permanent, its awful. Its a loan, surely there's got to be young players who are naturally RWs playing at some or Europe's top clubs that need some first team experience? I'd rather we swallow our pride and develop someone else's youngsters than spend cash buying someone we barely want because it's late in the window and options have run out. I mean we could have just had Hudson Odoi, I'm sure Chelsea would have liked him to go to the Prem if possible. I didn't want us to spend money on him but a loan would have done.

Come on that French bloke we'd never heard of was the number 1 in tackles and interceptions across all 5 top European leagues. He came from nowhere but it wasn't a surprise when you looked at the data. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
