We might be better off leaving the NFL posts up for the inevitable Spurs ‘field goals’! 😜

I'm not cheering against him. All I said is I'm not getting my hopes up and hopefully he proves me wrong.

Unlike other recent signings, Timo has been so bad we have all openly mocked him. It doesn't make you any less of a fan to have hesitations over him. If anything, it makes you delusional if you're all in thinking he's going to be great for us.

Thanks - you've posted my exact thoughts and saved me the effort.

Werner must score goals, or he's a waste of space.
 
If true and he has picked us over United then that’s massive!
Can imagine Roy Keane now - “does he not know that’s Manchester United”
I have a funny feeling this won’t be the first playing picking us over another club, Ange plays attractive attacking football, the kind of football everyone wants to play!

Obviously, but not all new signings arrive with a bit of a history, do they?

He's a Yid now - hopefully not a spursy one. Of course he gets a chance.

His history is one of a player that scores goals, and his "terrible" Chelsea stint he had 0.44 G/A per 90.

A goal or assist every two games doesn't seem that terrible to me, when he seemingly wasn't utilised properly.

Everyone would be laughing if Woolwich had just signed him

Na , there would be people on here saying we should have just paid his wages , and levy was a cheap skate for not getting it done!
It’s a low risk loan signing that may not work out but who else could we have realistically got in ?
This is a smart move by the club but people are so ingrained in hating Levy they can’t see that so just want to moan !

If he signs, first criteria is how is he as person, will he run himself into the ground, does he want to play for the club and will he fit in with the culture? Then is he talented enough to improve the group. He had an absolute stinker at Chelsea but is he a talented footballer? Yes. Do not underestimate Ange's ability to get the best out of players.

I saw negativity when MVDV and Vicario signed, in fact I saw a lot of anger when the Spanish guy signed for Woolwich

Believe me, if there's talent there Ange will drain every last drop out of the player. Werner could well them out to be a master stroke. He will have never been given the confidence and coaching like he will under Ange
Another player who would absolutely flourish is Jota. I can confidently say he's more talented version than the Liverpool version, just like Ange he simply need the stage to shine

Jota would be a sensational signing

Jota wont be coming - otherwise the Left side would be congested

nobody needs to shoot..... ange ball requires speedy run to the goal line for a richy-style tap in

He hasn’t hit double figures for league goals in four seasons. The only place he’s ever achieved that is the Bundesliga where scoring goals is a far easier feat.

He’s got plus points and on loan is solid but these lies people are telling themselves are odd.

His 0.44 G/A per 90 isn’t good at all for a player of his nature and it is utter BULLSHIT that he wasn’t utilised properly.

Chelsea created LOADS for him. He had fourteen expected goals in his first season but scored six. He missed open goals for fun. When he did score it was off. This was not a system problem.

Stop the cap.

Ok.

Scoring 10+ goals is the only stat that matters, right?

For a striker it’s pretty fucking important, yes????

He wasted so many chances at Chelsea. We all found it bloody hilarious. Why everyone is now pretending they have amnesia and the system let him down is beyond me.

He’s genuinely a clever pick up as we need depth and he does a job. But just be honest about what he is ffs. Quick, works hard, fucking diabolical at scoring goals for years.
