KenjiOgiwara Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Find the fascination of signing a player most of you have never seen play a bit funny. Bet he will struggle massively with his first season in the PL. Would need to get in other proven options as well. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nakamba posted on Instagram a picture of him and Rashica from a few years ago after new reports emerged we’re interested. Then the guy pictured with Rashica. A respected Kosovan journalist, who knows Rashica, posted last night we are in advanced talks and should be done next week. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe drumming up interest in the hope some other club else bids seems likely I doubt many football clubs are following a Kosovo journalist on social media and thinking we need to up the bid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember his name from a while back, but can't remember if it was an international match or Bundesliga. I've tried youtube now mind, so I'm an expert now like the rest of you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alreadyexists Posted August 13, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted August 13, 2020 Ignore the title of the video obviously, but there are some fantastic goals in there! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a physically weaker version of Grealish to me. If he's worth £32m then Grealish is worth £120m , that's why I don't think he's Grealish's replacement. No one can afford to buy Jack.

Sulberto21 Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 6 hours ago, VillaChris said: Foreign journos from small football countries very often have good relationships with star players as they're seen as sporting ambassadors for the country and treated with respect, completely different to the level of distrust you get over here. Anyway just had a look at Rashica's scoring stats and it was way better than I expected 9 Bundesliga goals in 18/19 (bare in mind they only play 34 games) plus 4 more in the German cup so pretty much a 1 in 3 scoring record. Started last season in great scoring form aswell, scored 9 goals in his first 13 league and cup games. Then the goals dried up as Bremen got worse but overall 11 goals for the season. Would comfortably be our top scorer with stats like that replicated here. He'd cost 10m less than Benrahma and is far more proven at the top level. That's the value of good scouting abroad sometimes. Hope it happens. And he's quicker. We pull this off its a major coup. To put it mildly (excuse the language) with this kid in our team we're gonna f*** some teams up next season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenjiOgiwara Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 He seems pretty decent with both feet and he's a good turn of pace though, which is promising. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villan-scott Posted August 13, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted August 13, 2020 Who fancies a sweepstake on the first journalist in England to run with this news? Gregg Evans or Ashley Preece is my bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkyvilla Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 So then how do we pronounce his name, is the T in his first name silent and is it Rashicka or Rasheeeka? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Willard Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 I think he plays similar to Mason Mount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted August 13, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted August 13, 2020 (edited) Looks good but it seems the quality of goalkeeping in those videos is pretty poor. Many of those shots get tipped round the post in The PL. Edited August 13, 2020 by sidcow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 I’ve never seen him play but he has been linked with some pretty big clubs and is generally quite highly rated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
