Every time they 'ask my opinion' in feedback I complain about this, and I notice they still haven't changed it. rocket polishers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, transfers between this "Villa" and this "Wednesday" is pretty much niche and just for the oh so on trend Hipster types (what league are they in anyway?), whereas Sassualo and Caen are pretty much everyone's favourite "second team" that all proper football fans have. Now, have you seen my recipe for pulled Hoxton Yam tartlets, with Quinoa gravy? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BleedClaretAndBlue Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Still remember his debut against Newcastle when he came on and hit an unreal pass with his first touch and we all though Lambo had uncovered a gem 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Quote Sanchez is an upgrade on Kouyate imo especially when it comes to ball retention and distribution. In Pellers we trust. Best window we've had for a long time http://www.kumb.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=171496&start=20840 Poor bastard doesn't know what's coming. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael118 Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 (edited) If Sanchez can work on his discipline and is able to cut out the occasional lapses in concentration he had while he was with us (which for a CDM can be a fatal flaw), I think he has most of the tools to be an excellent player in that position. It will be interesting to see how he goes because he has shown he is definitely capable of being a more than decent player at Premier League level on his day. Worth a gamble for West Ham in my opinion. Edited August 9, 2018 by Michael118 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyblade Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 How did Kalinic go from not being good enough for Blackburn almost a decade ago to playing for these top European clubs? Must have hit his peak late. Also can't believe he only just turned 30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know what Atletico are doing, he was total garbage at Milan last season and hardly amazing at Fiorentina before that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nor could he cope with the Italian league, so they converted him to a center back. Sanchez at DM is a disaster against any club that knows how to press.

Fiorentina loaned him to Espanyol a in January and he was impressive for them from what I've read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
