When he went from 4th or 5th choice to 1st choice under Rodgers it was part of my epiphany that we really needed an urgent change of direction 

Castagne caught out for Arsenal’s goal 

Amartey horror show for Besiktas

Evans embarrassing himself for Man U

Thomas hated by Sheff U fans

Soyuncu barely plays and gets a straight red within 5 mins of coming on

Evans, Soyunchu and Castagne were part of a back 4 that had us in the top 4 for 2/3rds of the season, short memories. I'd argue part of the problem last season was not playing Soyunchu.

… that ultimately bottled it 

 

You’re right but the way he had that four playing was VERY different to last season too

So it's basically just Ndidi and Daka that we're going to miss. 

 

Seeing that we're not overly reliant on goals from strikers Ndidi will be the biggest miss by a distance.

Shame Iheanacho has gone as its unlikely we'll be able to sell him this window now. Cant see anyone spending money on a player who's unavailable for the next month that is available on a free in the summer.

Many deals don't get done until the last week of January, he'll be back early Feb so it might not completely put off clubs. All depends how desperate we are to get a small fee for him.

Somebody like Burnley/Luton/Sheff utd would pay a fee as Kel probably wouldn't end up at any of those clubs when on a free transfer.

I doubt they'd pay his wages when there is a high chance they will be relegated at the end of the season

So Ghana apparently has another Abdul Fatawu (a defender)?! Phew! That was close…

Likely not going anywhere till the summer at the earliest. It’s obvious that Enzo likes him much better than many FTers dol

He's not going to any of those, whether they are willing to pay a fee or not.

 

He will just wait it out, he will have plenty of suitors around Europe on a free in the summer.

Massive that we have Fatawu available...quickly becoming convinced he's the best player in the league

Behave not even the best player at the club.

Having Fatawu available is massive

Salah starting for Liverpool tonight then despite today being the day when players are meant to be released for Afcon. 

[Big Dave]

How on earth is Salah able to play for Liverpool this evening, when we couldn’t play any of our AFCON players.

Ndidi and Nacho both injured according to Enzo, neither would have been fit to play. So Daka really the only one we didn't play, which is fair enough to give Cannon some game time to bed in before the next two tough games.

Thought I read somewhere that all AFCON players had to be made available from 01st Jan.

This game is part of the round of games in late December - so there’s some justification for this one.

Salah played for Liverpool yesterday. Wilf and Nacho were on the balcony of their box at the top of C Block yesterday.

Cameroon are allowing André Onana to stay with Man Utd for their FA Cup match against Wigan and their next PL game against Spurs....much to United's dismay.

A couple of questions. When is the latest a player can be called up to join an AFCON squad? Do 3 match bans in the Championship carry over to AFCON?
