I think we all knew who Connolly was, but didn’t appreciate that he was ready. Agree about Trossard, very few could have predicted that he’d be quite as good as he is.
Edit. Has Alzate even warranted a mention?
:lol: that’s brilliant to read, I can’t believe I was in such a negative head space. Delighted to have been completely and utterly wrong.
If we’re honest, did anyone expect Potter to have quite as much of an impact as he has? I appreciate I went overboard in the opposite direction but I can’t...
At the time I thought Trossard was an addition to our squad, not to replace one of them. I still feel we’re woefully under equipped on the flanks but I guess the formation will dictate what personnel we actually need. Am I right in thinking that we only have 2 out and out wingers in March and...
Few inconsistencies here, Shirley? How come Knockaert is thrown under the bus despite improving his stats, yet Alireza gets a pass despite not actually registering any stats other than games played?
In the Premier League Knockaert had 6, March had 5. You’ve found a website that gives March 6 for some reason, most places it’s recorded as 5.
Edit. I see you’ve found somewhere that records a penalty as an assist.
Indeed, there’s definitely something out of the ordinary about the whole scenario, whether we’ll ever find out, who knows? I still feel the fees being reported seem below market value so the club must have been quite desperate to offload him.
£4m, eye watering? Not in the Premier League, kids are being bought and thrown in the u-23s for that kind of money. Real world terms it’s big money but it’s loose change in the Premier League.
I could swear you’ve posted that several times, and each time you’ve been told Knockaert had more assists. It might only be one more, but why are you trying to water it down?
Am I alone here, I can kind of understand why the club are letting him go, even though I don’t think any of our other wingers are better, but what’s really boiled my piss is the seemingly pathetic fee we’re letting him go for. He will be box office at Fulham.
He’s a prime candidate for it too, thinks he’s got the answers but then disappears when he gets called out. I once called him out on one of his narratives that he was peddling, he eventually conceded but only through PM :lol:
