I hope we sign someone this window actually. Not usually bothered but without Trossard and Mwepu we are short no matter how confident we all currently feel. Be delighted with Ilic and that would make sense with the Moises and Mac Summer of Doom coming up.
It's crazy. It's a great signing. He makes a difference, he's a match winner. He will undoubtedly contribute off the bench and if he starts. Supporters of the big teams are nuts. They're literally on the verge of winning the league. That seemed impossible at the begining of the season. Every...
I agree, but I'm not sure he suits intricate passing actually. He often got a bit clumsy in the centre of the pitch here trying that. Obviously some incredible moments, but I definitely think he's being signed as an out an out winger.
To people who want him to stay. If you had to put your house on him turning it around if he does stay, and contributing something, baring in mind he's barely training with us right now, would you? Because I'd say he is currently the least likely player in the squad to do that. Not dismissing his...
Yeah..it's a fair price isn't it? The moment he joins another club he is worth way more than that, but hey ho. Interesting few days coming up, if there's truth in the Spurs bid this is likely to be a goer. Those kinda clubs can stretch to that kind of amount. Suspect Newcastle and Arsenal to...
I agree with this to an extent, but for every Tross going cheaply, there's been White, Biss, Cucu etc. It's not like we make a habit of selling players cheaply but sometimes (Ali J for totally different reasons) you just have to take what you can get.
What exactly does reconciliation look like though? Do we make him parade along Marina Drive wearing an A Board pleading for forgiveness? How do you kiss and make up, as a club, when your highly paid player has encouraged his agent to release a statement undermining the manager and everybody...
He's not worth anything to us playing in the reserves or even being an unhappy player on the bench.
No. I want players who have a) clearly downed tools b) made their agent issue a pitiful statement to the press and c) seem to be stinking the place out, not to be at the club.
Me too. :)
I...
Personally I'd take £12 million. We've got our money's worth out of him. If he wants to leave and Spurs want him great. He won't even get in their team.
If, and it's a big if, he crawls back, first demand from the club will be he sacks his creepy agent.
He's not going to come back now, especially not to sit on the bench.
Normal? When you've been singled out for your work ethic? Normal to leave the country? Having only been back in it for what, a week or two? I'd say if you wanted to sort this out, impress RDZ, you'd be there at the ground tomorrow.
Argentinan League is ranked below the Scottish, Dutch, Danish, our Championship, the Mexican etc etc.
We are a top half team in the strongest league in the World. He isn't walking into the match day squad, especially as he is just about to return to S America.
