Foluwashola Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Good, I don't care about the money and he's a better option than Gouffran when chasing a game. Now sign a fucking striker. Tend to agree with this, although have that awful feeling that no striker will be coming in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Think he'll do ok here personally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 He'll provide competition for places and offer a different option. He's not great, decent but not great, but the writing's on the wall. It's a bit of a desperate move but we're squarely in a desperate situation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sempuki Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Guess that means Thauvin is off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I think he's probably be fine, just annoyed that he'll be a perennial starter forever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menace Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Who will he even start ahead of, surely we're not spending another £14M on a bench warmer ffs. I don't want him to sign at all, he's average Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foluwashola Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I think he's probably be fine, just annoyed that he'll be a perennial starter forever. Because he's English? Thauvin came in for big dollar and has barely seen the pitch. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want him to sign at all, he's average Perez and we will all complain on a weekly basis. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sempuki Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Wonder how much Levy has screwed us for. Don't really care though as it's not my money. Hope they have a forward lined up too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menace Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 We deserve to go down if we spend this much on Townsend. Fuck him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thauvin came in for big dollar and has barely seen the pitch. McClaren wants him (I imagine), he clearly didn't want Thauvin and just refused to play him. It happened with Obertan (French) although he was so shit that even Pardew had to bite the bullet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 I'll take whoever we can get, to be honest. We're in the relegation zone and still resorting to throwing Yoan Gouffran on. There's no way he can be worse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foluwashola Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Why do people care about the fee? We've spent years whinging about us quibling over pennies. Every PL club is going to be gifted hundreds of billions in the summer anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care personally, i just find it funny how much we have wasted on crap who don't improve the team and will probably continue to do so. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no way he can be worse. We throw dross on the pitch due to our incompetent manager thinking they can somehow change the game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minhosa Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Can't help but think we've spaffed money on this one but at least he brings pace. Bet good money that he'll be hated in the longer term though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bimpy474 Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Well i think he'll be better than Thauvin, and is far better than Obertan and Gouffran. Will we be a better team with him in our side, think we will to be honest. Decent signing imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
