Sulberto21 Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Just now, CVByrne said: Yeah we've gone all the way to having a bid accepted and then Gerrard is told oh we are going to sign Sarr. He then said, nah mate I'm not sure I fancy him. As if a professional football club is run like that. Sky sports haven't a clue. Reading off a tweet or something Kaveh the bellend gets his info from twitter - he blocked people and complained about people who called him out on it. That darmesh sheth is a joke too. I wish they were in front of Anthony Joshua on Saturday lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post It's Your Round Posted August 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 22, 2022 The only person you can call a shambles in all of this is Sarr, if he’d just had the nuggets to look Gerrard in the eye, he’d have been starting against West Ham. Granted in the wrong position, but still. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faq me. A phone call is never enough, you need to get round their house with some flip chart and sell the project. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 50 minutes ago, HalfTimePost said: I believe we were desperate because after allegedly 2-3 years of following this winger, we chucked nearly £30m plus players at it within minutes of getting smashed at Palace - when we don't play with wingers. I may well be wrong and perhaps over reacting on the PR stuff - but everything about this transfer reeks of panic and desperation. How can it not? He doesn't suit our style of play, we haven't recruited for a different style all summer - it appears as though we've either gone big on him outta nowhere, or randomly decided to change our tactics out of nowhere. There's 50 pages of people not understanding the deal because it doesn't suit us. Don't be so condescending as though it's mental it appears desperate. If any other club had the start we did and then plucked a player out of nowhere that doesn't suit them it would appear a touch desperate and it does for us too I think we played some 4 - 2 - 3 - 1 and 4 - 3 - 3 at times in pre season?

Mercurial wide forward, as likely to be totally absent as he is to score from 45 yards. I’d say they’re pretty similar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Steve Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 So if the deal is revived and he signs is it a sign of desperation still? Or how negotiations work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post DCJonah Posted August 22, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 22, 2022 I don't get why people are so defensive. I think there's a lot of questions in regards to this. Fair questions. We don't play with wide attackers. Our football and results are awful. We have 3 very good attacking players and can't get them all into the team or to actually work. We've just loaned out a wide attacking player. And we might want to pretend it's normal but for us sine NSWE have come in, this sort of public reporting of a deal and then having it fall through isn't normal. It doesn't mean the club is a shambles, it's not a stick to beat Gerrard with, but I also don't think it's a whole lot of nothing. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duke313 Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 One thing that's is practically guaranteed now, is that whoever Sarr eventually signs for, he'll play a blinder against us and probably score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with most of what you say but the last sentence I questioned because there’s different reports as to why . So imo when there’s a lot of conflicting reports with different reasons I just take it with a pinch of salt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Steve Posted August 22, 2022 Share Posted August 22, 2022 Maybe he used the interest from us to get a move to Palace? Why would the club accept that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
