Resign is to quit (or you know resign). Re-sign is to sign a contract with a group you already had an agreement with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to be so far above average to get a chance of playing top flight football in Europe and then you're talking about someone who's won titles in Italy and just got into the top 4 with Spurs. He's one of the better midfielders at Spurs, and then he gets into the midfield of almost all the teams below 4th into the Isthmian League and across the world. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used work with a guy and his friend was in football terms completely average played SPL think League 1/2 maybe Championship for a few games but fans of the clubs he played would say he was an average clogger picked up more cards than assists When this guy turned up to 5 a side with the mates he was like Messi/Ronaldo level compared to other guys 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolute class of their own in ability, levels above anyone, didn't make it beyond the subs bench of a conference team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBlack Posted June 13, 2022 Share Posted June 13, 2022 Back to Luiz... I assume we'll sell him if he doesn't sign a contract. Even if it meant taking a pretty big hit on his asking price, I'd want to see him out the door if he has no intention of hanging around beyond this season. It's not the attitude we want in the dressing room. If he does sign though, I'd be quite intrigued to see how he'd get on in a midfield alongside Kamara and a.n.other. I think he'd bring a lot to the table if he was given one of the 8 slots in front of a dedicated DM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from after lockdown he has never had a run of consistently good performances. His form changes like the weather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s like playing against DeBruyne. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "tidy" midfielder is one of the most unfairly maligned players in the game. I think he'll have a fantastic career, but agree last season was nothing to write home about. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
