I bet he's as good as i am!

I know two things in French, Sacre Bleue, and Merde. Could probably work as a scout!

Sacre Bleue i snapped up from the brilliant movie Top Secret. And Merde i snapped up from Inspector Clouseau and the Pink Panther movies.

I consider myself a linguistique genius!

He might be saying 6 as I think his manager said that was his future on some quotes.

Ahh ok! 👍 The thing is, Djurgårdens manager is a drunk 😜

Seriously tho, the Times i've seen Djurgården this season, he's been used in attacking positions.

But we probably have some Djurgården fans on this forum, that knows his game much better than me.

The point i was trying to make tho, was that we can't put our trust in two 18-year olds to solve our midfield problems. Wouldn't be fair on them.

Bergvall and the director at the club he's coming from said they see him as a #6 mate. Not my analysis. I guess maybe you know Bergvall better than he knows himself because you are Swedish?

No i think Bergvall knows himself better than me, although i'm Confusius.

And we probably have some Djurgården fans on here that knows him MUCH better than me.
All i said was, that the few times i have seen him, he has played in more attacking midfield roles.

And as i said in another post as answer to you saying we don't need another #6. Is i don't think we should or could put our trust in two 18-year olds to fix the problems Bissouma can't fix.

Davies is probably wanting to go back to Wales to see out his career. He's been such a good servant i'd be open to releasing him and allowing him to see out his career.

PEH was available the whole summer and January window and nobody wanted to pay 25m. Now he's got a year left and if we aren't careful clubs will just wait it out and get him on a free.

Ben Davies born in Neath south Wales but spent 3 years living in Viborg Denmark with his family where he played in their youth team before joining Swansea, but lived in London for 10 years after joining Spurs. He's done his coaching badges coaching in Spurs academy.

Spent almost half his life outside Wales, so just as likely to stay where he's settled down in London subject to other family commitments

Manchester City set to sign Han Willhoft-King

Manchester City have agreed terms to sign English youth international Han Willhoft-King following his Tottenham exit.

Been reported before, he was offered a pro contract but declined - looked decent up until about 18 months ago when he got injured for almost a year and hasn't got back to same level yet but now has competition from Abbott, Hall, Kyerematen and the younger Olusesi so likely thought he was better off leaving.

ManCity let go a lot of players last year and look a little thin (our u21s beat the 4-0 at City) so he's likely only there for a year or two to fill a hole in their production line. Has a 2 year contract - short given most lads will be on 3 or 5 year contracts.

You prattled on about goals and assists mate, him scoring a few tap ins and setting up a few goals doesn't change the fact he's a technically poor player who is not good enough for a team that wants to compete for trophies.

Your understanding of football seems limited to looking at the scoresheet and deciding who's good based on that so best we don't converse.
