JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 (edited) 36 minutes ago, TheMelvillan said: Ah man i kinda hate this chat. Konsa was excellent up to last year. We were collectively baffled why he wasn't getting a look in for England. I'd love to just get his form back on track rather than splash out on the next big thing (by all means insert a Kenneth Williams gif here) True, but we also tend to massively overrate our players. ( Myself included ) When they aren't at 110 percent their more " true " ceiling tends to show and that's when things get iffy. Don't know much about Collins but as I said earlier, based on what I've seen and read, he's already rated higher than Konsa, and is younger. Constant improvement calls for some ruthless/unpopular opinions. Truth be told, if it was down to some fans, Connor Hourihane would still be here.

Jas10 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Again, hope we try and sign Sangare. Not interested in the likes of Gallagher and certainly not Oxlade-Chamberlain, we have Ramsey and McGinn to back him up. Plus Sanson, Luiz, Chuk (for now). Plenty of 8s or box to box players. What we need is players who can pass the ball well and help retain it better, composure and physicality rather than an all out action approach. Gallagher’s passing statistics are not great either. JJ is the one for us. McGinn can back him up or rotate as required and will be better for us if he gets to play further forwards. Can’t see us selling John even though I would not be averse to it. We need composure and resilience in midfield, a nice solid base that will free up our attacking players and allow them to produce their best. Kamara and Sangare would be excellent. Mings and Carlos behind them and we will have such a strong, resilient and dominant team imo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've completely ignored the fact they said Tony, or explain who he is, and gone on to say in the replies that they were actually told the names of the two in question.

villanmac Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 Could do with something this week, this is too boring. There's nothing like a footballless summer to make you realise you've actually not got a lot going on in your life. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaz90 Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 According to Sport Witness, Chilean newspaper La Tercera has said that we've offered a contract to Alexis Sanchez. They're saying that we've offered to match what he's getting at Inter and that we're in competition with Marseille, Barcelona, Athletico Madrid and Arsenal for his signature. I've not really watched him for years, but his fbref stats look good and last season in Serie A he got five goals and two assists in under 900 mins, which isn't awful. At 33 though, he might struggle with a return to the Premier League. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For anyone who wonders why Gregg Evans gets grief, read this article today. He's promoted it all day on twitter stating how big a piece it is because it includes all players. I'm genuinely serious in that I could have written the exact same with no contacts or inside sources. How he's paid to write about us in one of the biggest sports journalism companies is beyond me. He's hit the jackpot. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would probably take Dzeko though on a one year deal as Inter seem to want him out as Lukaku is coming back 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
