Well presumably they have had him watched several times and done their due diligence, but l take your point, the opposition that he has come up against to date won't be anywhere near the same level that he will be facing week in week out in the Premier League.
Why? the squad we have is plenty good enough to keep us up, and take us through to the end of the season in my opinion. In tgypical NSC fashion people are panicking over one bad 2nd hald performance at Fulham.
Any team strengthening can be done in the summer window when more players are...
Oh come on, it was just one game, every player has the odd lapse. I'd say that prior to yesterday the recent performances of both Jurgen Locadia and Florin Andone had been very good, and to be honest l don't think the supply to them yesterday was very good.
True enough, this time for some reason l happen to believe him though. I rfeally see no reason to spend money at the moment. I think we will bide our time, play out the rest of the season, and then invest in the summer, when more players are available, and for less inflated prices.
Is Bissouma's injury worse that l thought then? Even if thats the case, and he isnt fit for couple of months or so, l think we will just make do with what we have. Kayal can come in of course, and Gross can sit deeper if needs be.
Incidentally, no, l wouldn't be tempted to promoto someone from...
Nice to have the extra option as you so rightly say, but some posters on this thread seem to have blue & white tinted specs where Knocky is concerned, he did a massive amount to help propel us into the Premier League, but every player, even the most popular ones, have their day in the sunshine...
Sorry but that's nonsense, 15/20m? no one would pay that for him! He set the Championship alight whilst we were in it, yes, but he really jhas struggled to adapt to the Premier League for my money. He has had to change his game, track back and become more defensive minded, and l think he finds...
Nearing the end? I wonder personally if he is pretty much at the end now. He hasn't figured in the starting line up for a fair few games now, and hasn't even been seen on the bench very much either.
What a career he has had though, and we have been so lucky to have had him captain the Albion...
