Dave Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Him feeling the need to speak out in public like this isn't a particularly promising sign IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BottledDog Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Him feeling the need to speak out in public like this isn't a particularly promising sign IMO. In what sense? Surely it's good new that the player is willing to fight for the move. /That said, I can't generate much enthusiasm for him, but then I know next to nothing about him tbf.

hoppaz Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Love these young un-polished diamond type players. if he does sign I reckon he'll develop in to a top player considering his "shithouse" attributes and also his wife and kids who seem to have big appetites Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newcastle Fan Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Watching some video's of the game and reading what is said here i don't think he's what we need right now, we got enough power upfront we really need a decent finisher. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shayno Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Shayno, ability and style-wise who could you compare him to? A left-footed Marc Antoine-Fortune maybe? lol Perhaps a less graceful looking Ryan Babel if Liverpool played him as a striker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely it's good new that the player is willing to fight for the move. In that everything seems to have gone on quietly up to now, we've apparently met him, turned his head, made a bid etc. And yet it's hit the brakes so much he's resorted to coming out to France's biggest sports paper to whinge about it. If nothing else, it may make Sochaux even more stubborn and we all know what that means. As with the Ben Arfa deal btw, everyone seems to overlook the double standards when it comes to players pushing to leave us for a bigger club (see Enrique).

taxfree Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Don't know what to make of this. Don't think he's really the type of player we need. Seems a bit of a tit as well, but not going to hold that againt him if he signs for us like. Meh... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going with what Shayno say's I'd be delighted if you were right. Oh, as for double standards, you seem to be missing out on the fact that all anyone cares about is the club. If a player comes here by forcing through a deal and it benefits us, then that's fantastic, if a player forces a move elsewhere, they can fuck off. This isn't the moral maze, of course there are double standards, and rightly so. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JH Posted August 15, 2011 Share Posted August 15, 2011 Another player who we have no idea how he'll perform in the PL. Oh joy. Nothing against the player at all, haven't heard of him personally, and he could be a good player, but we just don't know. And with just over two weeks left in the window and a side desperate for goals, we need proven PL experience rather desperately. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
