xLiaaamx Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 It depends, HBA may have more pure skill than Ayoze, but Ayo combines his skill with his brain, and he's much more intelligent than HBA. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimburst Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 HBA's scored geet loads of goals already this season. HBA has insane levels of talent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 HBA was genius on the ball man. I love Perez and his game's a lot more reserved and hard working than Hatem's but I don't think his decision making is any better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Going to enjoy him as much as I can because if he keeps this up we will be selling him in the near future. We should be looking to build the next few years at least around him but everyone knows the club doesn't care about progress on the pitch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
themanupstairs Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Going to enjoy him as much as I can because if he keeps this up we will be selling him in the near future. Yup. And if we sell him for anything under 30m soon it would be a travesty. 10 goals and a few assists this season should see that rise up to 45-50m IMO.

Unbelievable Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Depressing as owt that in the back of my mind I want to refrain from getting overly attached to him too much for fear of being butt-hurt a few months down the line. Same for Mitrovic. I blame the Carroll sale, no matter how good that piece of business has turned out in the end. Being a NUFC fan under Ashley really is a mindfuck. You find yourself occasionally hoping we lose games to make the position of undroppable managers untenable somehow, and you hope the good players do well but not so well as to attract the attention of the bigger clubs.

Agree the Carroll sale was a watershed moment. From that point onwards, Ashley has been trying to replicate that sale. Good players with no attachment to the club are always going to move on at some point but you would hope that they would at least learn when it is the right time to tell i.e. when the team is in a position to cope with the player leaving or have a replacement already at the club. I would be nice if the good players (especially when some of them are so young) could be here long enough to leave some kind of legacy rather than relatively few appearance where it is quickly forgotten that they ever played for us.

We should be looking to build the next few years at least around him but everyone knows the club doesn't care about progress on the pitch. Truth. This is why this '3 windows' stuff quoted doesn't ring true. you can easily rebuild a squad in 3 windows, nowt much wrong with that plan imo... but not if you are constantly selling your best players and 'assets' to buy as we undoubtedly will be.

U2 Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 It depends, HBA may have more pure skill than Ayoze, but Ayo combines his skill with his brain, and he's much more intelligent than HBA. Not sure this is true, Ben Arfa makes decisions incredibly quickly and while running at an amazing speed. Yesterday's goal and 2 assists are enough justification that Hatem is actually more intelligent on the ball than Ayoze. Loved Hatem's work for Nice's 4th. Just waited and waited until that pass was on, then played it in an instant whilst everyone else was sleeping. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 The difference with Perez is that I wouldn't begrudge him a move. He's a fantastic character and a fantastic player. Not like mercenary shits like Sissoko or Debuchy. If and when he leaves us, let it be to Barcelona or Real Madrid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not like mercenary s***s like Sissoko or Debuchy. If and when he leaves us, let it be to Barcelona or Real Madrid. Any player who joins us is a mercenary. Sissoko's behavior might be annoying but if he's got an ounce of intelligence, imagine what he sees on the inside compared to us. I'd be banging a drum from the rooftops shouting 'get me out of here' as well. Sissoko and Debuchy would have been told we would be competing for Europe, and they had a little faith, and have been burned. I don't blame any player of this club for taking any actions that help them get away. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 how on earth no clubs in Spain signed him before we did?? He came out of nowhere to be frank. You bought him after his first season as a senior player, and no youth caps. Some brilliant scouting there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldtype Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 On paper we have more likable players than I ever remember us having. Perez, Mitrovic, Windjalum, Mbemba all seem like good hard-working lads with the right attitude who, incredibly, are also good at playing football. I'd be thrilled if I wasn't so confident that we'll sell/ruin all of them in short order. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just waited and waited until that pass was on, then played it in an instant whilst everyone else was sleeping. The only time Hatem came close to playing in a functioning system that attacked well with movement and pace he was very good in it. Pardew burned it all down and the rest is history...

The College Dropout Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 LOL we don't want to be in Europe let alone the PL. I don't want us to sign any players that would like to spend the rest of their careers here as we are. Someone like Krul should've been more consistent and left us by now. That's how we've ended up with Colback. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
