Did not see a Premier League player in him and never understood why Smith continually played him over Davis at the end of last season. To score goals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair to him, he still worked his socks off defensively and maybe, in that, contributed a little to our tightening up post lockdown. I would wish him well but will definitely not miss him. Despite the loss & poor team performance, he started to look decent in the Bournemouth game. Scored against City in the cup final too. Downhill from there & just looked lost and bereft of confidence/belief. A shame, seems to have a good personality but seemingly not cut out for this level. Can’t ignore the COVID situation either, and he hasn’t been with us long, just hasn’t worked out for him at all. Best we recoup some money and spend it more wisely.

blunther Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 I thought he looked good before lockdown, especially I think the semi final where we was really good on the ball and intelligent with his running and passing. Just seemed to die on his arse a bit in the run in. Shame, but good luck to him wherever he goes, and he got to bag a goal in a cup final at wembley which is something to tell the grandkids about. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Him, Drinkwater and Reina were not good pieces of business in January in hindsight. Hence Suso getting his P45. Poor Borja Baston again never gets a mention. He will go with Moreira into the forgotten Villa vault Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Willard Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 Hopefully there is a little bit of cash up front so we can get the Rashica deal over the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momo Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 Alexander Sørloth wasn't good enough for a bottom side in Premier League. Yet, now he is the lead striker in RB Leipzig. Last years semifinalist in CL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The premier League is one of the most difficult to score in. Intelligent players are successful here because it's not the most technical league except for the top teams. I wish Samatta all the best.

samjp26 Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 7m euros is a decent return to be fair, glad we haven't made a huge loss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pez1974 Posted September 24, 2020 Share Posted September 24, 2020 €7m reported - about £6.4m. Reported we bought him for £8.5m on a 4.5 year deal. Given Covid and only 2 goals, that doesn't seem too bad. For FFP purposes, that's just under a £1m loss on the deal (we would have depreciated about £1.25m of his contract during his 8 months with the club, which is normal, and the Kodija sale would have covered this).
