Bilal El Khannouss joins - Official

[Noahfence]

If we can keep him for the championship there’s potential for him to take the piss out of that league. 
 

I suspect there’ll be plenty of interest but I don’t think anyone will go into for him

I’m sure some will but depends if we can get a fee which makes it work for us (and if just making a few million is necessary for our psr position) 

 

[Tielemans63]

He's quality, this lad. I'll be very surprised if he's playing for us in the Championship next season.

[les-tah]

I pray we can convince him a season in the championship will make him a better player

[AjcW]

Loan back to Genk for the season. Gets to play champions league for a bit, keep him happy and come back when we’ve sorted our shit out? 
 

Fulham used to do this when they Yo-Yo’d.. Leeds too.

 

We’ll break even if we sell this year, be stupid to do that 

[baldeagle]

Thing I like about him  for a flare player he doesn’t half get stuck in 

[Ian Nacho]

He could be incredible in the Championship. 

[ronnup]

Cant see anyone paying 25 plus which is what we'd need.

Stats v Brighton

 

Bilal El Khannouss stats vs Brighton

90 minutes played

1 assist

44 touches

22/28 (79%) accurate passes

4 key passes

2/2 successful dribbles

2 accurate crosses

3 ground duels won

 

His pass rat could be better but some of that is down to him trying more difficult passes and the receiver anticipating them.

 

Did he not make the final pass to Mavididi or does it not count as it was Mav's second attempt?

Or just keep him and let him help us get promotion he only just signed.

Before 2023 a player we'd sell would only go to one of the so called 'Big 6' but now we're in a stage where there's about another 6 clubs that could be more attractive than we are.

 

2 relegations leads to this I guess eh Top?

 

 

[Lcfc-1992]

Sell whoever we can to try keep him. Hermansen, Ndidi, Kristiansen, Winks, Soumare, Okoli could hopefully raise enough so we don’t need to sell. 
 

In the championship next season

Mavididi   El Khannouss   Fatawu

I wouldnt get rid of Okoli but the likes of Faes, JJ, VK, Vesty, Winks, Hermansen etc, id rather them

would keep BEK, a 3 of Fatawu, Mav and BEK would be a delight to watch next season

I would say double to be anywhere near 

[Md9]

I imagine we wanted more for players like barnes and Maddison but with us being relegated we had to settle for less. Be the same for bilal if we can’t get rid of anyone else might be the only way we raise the money we will need .

Given his book value, we won’t be able to raise anywhere near enough from selling Bilal to make it worthwhile from a PSR perspective.

Might be the only player we get anything for though with the rest of them being shite. Minus mads but he has his moments recently that might put people off 

[Gazza M]

Back to Europe for Bilal. He is Prem quality now surrounded by nit wits.

"might" pretty sure teams will be sniffing around a few

Lazio were linked with Faes, suspect people will look at Ndidi, JJ. Soumare too

 

the club wont want to get rid of BEK on the cheap as hes clear hes a future star

Just because they have been linked doesn’t mean they will go if they are on more money than what another club is offering or bid they put is is garbage . Not been easy to get rid of any of them the last few seasons and doubt will be any easier now . Any one watching Faes Justin or soumare this season will have changed their minds I am sure

yeah and just because BEK might be one of the players who could have suitors doesnt mean the club will get rid, unless someone is willing to pay what we want i doubt he'd be going

 

wheres as the likes of Faes is more than likely to leave, like a good few others, regardless of if they are "shite" VK still got a move last time, so did Soumare

Believe it our not we are probably in a better position from a PSR point of view this summer

due to the way PSR works though, we'd be better off getting 12m for him next summer than 16m this summer

[C.J]

I read an interview with one of his coaches where he started out. He said that he'll go on a bigger club after us (they always say that when we get a good one)!  I think we'd struggle to keep him in the championship as he'd be far too good. Dare I say it, but technically he's the best player we've had since Mahrez IMO.
