I could make plucking that arse a lifetime vocation!
 
just seen the werner news

feel ange can get him back to his best, rapid lost his finishing touch but i feel ange can get the best out of him and his strengths

6 month loan cant complain and he brings depth to the striker role
 
Oh he'll 'impact' alright ..ain't no doubt about it......

I have watched more pub league football since Harry moved to it, and to be fair to Dier, he would more than hold his own against most of the forwards he would face.

For all the plaudits made about BM, there are no real challengers to their mantle, hence their winning eleven of the last twelve titles.

It's more of a procession than Red Bull had in this seasons F1 Championship.
 
What we need is something different to what we have. We need someone who has some pace but who also has some technical ability. Someone who the ball doesn’t bounce off. Who can carry the ball past a man but also do something in a tight space.

He’s only 21. We aren’t going to pay for the perfect 25yo pro finished. Look what Utd payed for Sancho or Anthony.

Both these players have flaws (and you can throw in Cherki) especially without the ball, but all young enough to coach “effort” it’s the technique and craft we are lacking.

Look at difference Klopp has made to some of his squad.

We can’t keep watching our great approach play come to fuck all because Richarlison can’t trap a ball, Johnson can only run in one direction, Kulusevski has the pace and dribbling ability of an armchair.

And I’m suggesting 6 month punts. They don’t work, send them back. Or go and pay the fucking money for the sure thing.

What Ange has made clear, is the value of personality, Cherki has huge question marks on this aspect

And for the polemicist, Rayan Cherki must also be sacrificed. “You can’t put a team that plays ball with guys who have a shit mentality like that of the Lyonnais. What Moreira does on goal, catastrophic, he first said, condemning the young Lyon midfielder: “But worst of all, what Cherki is doing is cataclysmic. Cherki must never set foot on this team again. Cherki, it’s not even half of Ben Arfa’s brain, that’s how far it goes. It’s CP level. It is not possible to do what he does, to claim this kind of fault by raising his arms. He always has his arms raised, he’s a fan. He has to stop Cherki. You insult your team, your teammates, the OL supporters. We don’t give a damn if you know how to play, go high five with your friends.”

So, once more, you watch a bit, see some technical savvy, and, ignore that the guy seems a self absorbed arsehole, who would degrade the entire atmosphere.

Maybe consider the entirety of a player, rather than the odd 90minutes you watch here and there. Same with many others you suggest/support NDombele etc.
 
Werner deal makes sense to me, pacey wide forward which Ange likes. Basically he's the German Johnson, not going to pot a load of goals but will bring that raw speed on the break. Covers the Veliz injury, no risk on loan too. Very sensible signing IMO
