I might have missed something here but are we saying that after a covid outbreak saw a number of our players contract the disease, it’s ludicrous to suggest that one of our players has shown some of the symptoms for a few weeks? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're referring to Barkley, then technically he belongs to Chelsea and isn't our player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mic09 Posted May 5, 2021 Share Posted May 5, 2021 If for the rest of the season he performed like he did against Everton, and the price tag was £20m, would you take him? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would that be enough for us to consider him at £20m? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No... but have the view that Chelski will move some players on in the summer with Barkley being one of them, he might be available for far cheaper. I'd have him to sit on the bench at 12m.

I like what your thinking and would love to see Tammy back, but have the feeling Smith is going to give Wesley a chance and if we do go for a Striker will be something different to Tammy, who is more physical and offers us something different.

There is lethargy and then there is taking the piss. The two are very different in my humble opinion. I mean, who actually cares about that stuff? You, obviously, but I really don't see a player being upset at being substituted as a reason to write them off. As for the rest, what more can I say? I can only speak from experience of a nasty virus. Smith did, eventually, pull him out of the starting lineup. As I said initially though, we really have no idea what has gone on, only that something hasn't been right with him. On the information I have, I wouldn't go near him.

Ah okay, sorry, I read that as you having some super secret ITK. If Lange / Smith want him, I hope we sign him. We've been given absolutely no reason to not trust their judgement so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
