  1. His villa performances under several different managers who all found him seemingly frustrating.
  2. Which is largely due to his approach to the game IMO. He doesn't seemingly follow instructions but rather just does whatever he thinks is best at any given time, which is immensely frustrating for managers. The technical ability is undoubtedly there but you can't have a CM in the prem that you don't really trust or can rely on.
  3. Worst ref going. It's a miracle he didn't cause another Brentford from his inability to manage a game.
  4. I once had a newgen in CM01/02 with the first name 'Sir Chips'
  5. What an eclectic mix of names Astrobiology, Wolfenstein, breakfast cereal
  6. That is the most newgen name I've ever heard - are you sure he's real? EDIT - just seen his full name is Saint-Cyr Johan Bakayoko - incredible name
  7. I don't think there's any danger of that tbh unless Emi gets a bad injury. He could be our number 2 next season as Olsen's contract expires this summer (thank god) but maybe we'll look to get him in the Championship or if the price is right somewhere, sell him on for FFP purposes.
  8. I don't think Paulo Disabled is the answer tbh
  9. I don't think you've got this right, @useless
  10. Not as much as Frankie Ealing tbf - but could be in his gang.
  11. The match fitness is there again - he was busting a gut all game long - but he's not quite got the sharpness of touch back. He's getting there.

    What's not looking good about his future? He's shown plenty of good things but naturally has a lot to work on too - that's generally how youngsters are tbf.

    Yesterday was a good learning curve for him against a team that was set up to defend. It didn't help that we were without Torres, Luiz and Tielemans because we lacked a player on the pitch who can see and execute a killer pass. Against teams that play as defensively as Boro did, we need them to make things easier.
  14. Yesterday we didn't have Douglas or Torres starting either and badly missed the vision that all three bring to the table. It's vital to have players who can spot the weak points or opportunities when we come up against a low block team.
  15. Made a big difference when he came on. Without him, Torres and Tielemans on the pitch, we don't have the necessary vision of quickness of thinking to break down teams who sit deep.
  16. Hopefully this won't drag on until the end of the window. Last thing we need are Crysenc talks.
  17. Azaz would be worth somewhere around 6/7m if he wasn't out of contract IMO. Good return this year and showed he can hang at the championship level. The worry with Archer is that he's not impressed at PL so far and thus he would probably command a smaller fee than what we sold him for. 15-18m, I'd guess.
  18. Azaz's goal was absolutely ridiculous btw Lovely assist from Revan too
  19. In that case, my money is on Arnaud Randrianantenaina
