We won't be ripping this squad up like last time. It's why I think we will piss the championship next year. Mings isn't hectic. He is heroic in his defending and this big alpha type who likes to be quite vocal. He's not elite though i think in the same way Grealish is. Makes some mistakes, i don't think a top club would go near him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we'd dominate the championship without them. With them you'd have to see us as favourites for automatic promotion. With McGinn being injured for a lot of the season, there's also a chance teams won't pay what we value him at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its nowhere near as easy as we thought it would be. We got up by the skin of our teeth, and would have probably collapsed as a club if he hadn't.

It's a tough league but we will be in a good position next year. We will be playoffs at a minimum. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm inclined to agree, he cost us more than other teams will be ready to pay for based on performances, I can't really see teams coming up with an offer of 20 plus million (unless he has a spectacular euro) and I can't see us selling him for anything less. So if we go down he might very well be stuck with us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roonst83 Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 We simply need to be constantly crossing for this guy. He's so hungry and has so much determination. We have decent crossers of the ball in Grealish, Hourihane, Target, El Ghazi, Elmo etc so need to utilise that strength. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure you actually understood the insinuation/context but just feeling argumentative. The insinuation and context isn’t true either. I’m not arguing, I’m stating a fact. This spills over from the Grealish thread where the message was if you think Grealish will leave in the summer you’re a shit fan and think the club shouldn’t even bother trying to keep him. It wasn’t true in there and it’s not true in here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 Great header. We really do need to get more crosses in to him. His hold up play could be better but he is still adapting to the league to be fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have decent crossers of the ball in Grealish, Hourihane, Target, El Ghazi, Elmo etc so need to utilise that strength. Yet all season we've struggled to cross properly. Our crosses most games have been real bad that it's only the last few games they seem to of gotten better. Most the time those crosses of ours seem to hit the first man, go way over the, there has been huge waste in our crosses. Jacks cross from the free kick at wembley showed how bad weve been at wasting our crosses and set pieces, even the pundits made a comment on it because we should of done better. Until Samatta came here we hadn't actually scored a headed goal because the one Jack scored got disallowed, so it all highlights how bad we've been on the wings.

Tom13 Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 Someone who had watched him said he was like Eto'o when we signed him. There are similarities. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest av1 Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 Watching his goal yesterday brought back memories of a recent debate on talk sh#te claiming that strikers that can head the ball are a thing of yesteryear. Call me old fashioned but there are few greater sights than a striker smashing a header in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I don't won't to endlessly defend Wes mate but they are completely different players. Look I'm in no way comparing Wes to great players like a Bebertov or a Le Tissier, but neither of those 2 would have scored the goal Samatta yesterday either. I have a feeling they would make a pretty decent front 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's Your Round Posted March 2, 2020 Author Share Posted March 2, 2020 Perfect diving header, so satisfying to see. Can he score the goals we need to stay up? I really hope so, but we’re going to need some proper service to him. If we can get Jack, Targett, and possibly Elmo and Conor providing the crosses, I back Samagol to score plenty. El Ghazi can hit a decent cross as shown yesterday, but it’s 50/50. The less said about Trez’s crossing the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
