Stuff I heard on podcasts etc was that he was very motivated to remain in Catalonia, so not sure we’d have got him if we’d tried.
I spent a week in Catalonia and I was motivated to stay there too. Makes sense
Catalonia is wonderful , absolutely love the area . Not a difficult decision TBF
Girona or Enfield ain’t a tough one for anyone.
Would go some way to explain the spurious Micky VDV links over the last couple of days.
He is so full of shit I can smell it from here,he may guess right the odd time but he is no more itk than I am.
Do you think it's merely a coincidence he starts for the team top of the league?
It’s certainly not for his goals and assists.
My point is, buying from the Premier League for big money isn’t some cast iron guarantee that the player’s gonna be any good. On the contrary you’re probably gonna overpay for the level of ability. For every single one of those players I mentioned, we could’ve gotten a much superior player on the continent for the same or less.
And I include Kudus in that, he’s only our most potent attacking threat cause the rest are absolutely shite. There’s nothing I’ve seen from him so far that suggests he’s a top drawer player.
The reason we buy from the Premier League is cause we’re lazy and shite at scouting. And we’ve had this notion that because Ndombele and Lo Celso were bad, that buying expensive players outwith the Premier League is too big a gamble, which is a total fallacy, as our success rate buying within the Premier League isn’t any better.
It all comes down to scouting, and we’re ridiculously bad at it.
Guehi to City

A for effort
Adeyemi is basically Johnson but much faster and better technical ability. I'd be fine with him or Akliouche because they're actually ready for the Prem. No to any teenager or anyone who can't immediately start over Odobert or Tel.
Good , the only ones capable of stopping Woolwich......id send them VDV too if needs be
Then we can buy Bassey
And you literally had to remove the part of that quote that said...
AlthoughCJJ , having done some googling, I do actually have to hold my hands up, he was at Everton last season too apparently? I thought he only signed in the summer.
I'll refrain from sarcastically pointing out that he can't have been all that impressive though if I had no idea he existed...
I wasn't really counting his 1 appearance or something before, I did mean for Everton.
He was one of the only decent players in that team last season and did stand out. Nearly 1 goal every 3 games
Guehi and Semenyo in one January window is pretty good going. Hard to do deals though they say! Excuses I say and always have.
No change from previous years thenGot so bad people are posting literally anybody’s post from X now as transfer news
Our club can afford Marmoush's salary. At some point in the future it's going to have to reach the £300,000 per week salary demand. I read the other day the revenue is £660m or there about on the Forbes website.
It's about time the club pushed the boat out and justified the ticket prices. It doesn't mean all players need to be on that salary but if we want someone like Marmoush/Isak, that's what it's going to cost.
The club can afford to sign him and pay his salary, was the context of my post that you responded to, the goons are paying quite a few players over £200k per week, and they are in a similar financial position to our club.
Got it, I wasn't as informed on him as I thought I was.
Despite that, I still find some of the comments on him as though he's the second coming of Luis Figo to be way ott.
