Siem de Jong (still alive)


Recommended Posts

Just looking at the squad and who might leave this summer, had totally forgotten about Siem.

 

He wants to come back, and I think I'd take him back. The De Jong bad luck streak has to end sometime surely?  [emoji38]

Rather cut our losses and get what we can for him.

 

 

If he's on a huge wage and we could get two in for what he's on then I would change my mind and get rid, but I do hope he finally has a change in luck.

Did we really give him a six year deal? :lol:

 

Hard to envisage anyone buying him off us, doubt we'll be willing to rely on him to be a part of the first team squad either.

 

Another year on loan, trying to survive in this dangerous world, is what awaits him I imagine.

I really like the guy but it's beyond even my naivety to have any faith he'll contribute for us.

 

I still reckon if he can manage to be available for at least half our games next season, if still here, he'll show to be more than up to it.

 

But he's not going to be, so it's a completely moot point. I think his past accomplishments before joining us are not to be sniffed at entirely. Granted he's shown next to nothing here other than the odd moment of class or missing sitters from what is probably a horrendous lack of match fitness.

 

Really had hoped he'd be our new Nolan with some continental flair mixed in.

 

Oh well.

If that becomes reality then it's likely that he hasn't played a game.

Think if he stays fit (big if) he will be useful to have in the sqaud. Good experience and talent, just a lack of fitness. Rafa will get the best out of what's left of him.
