SUPERTOON Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Is Thauvin actually ever been any good anyway? He was abused and spat at by the Marseille fans before we signed him last season and named in ligue 1 worst eleven. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy84 Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Thauvin wants away though Have not seen that anywhere, he was quoted as saying that? Or is it an assumption based on him being a forrin and our relegation? It's been well reported in the Chronicle. He played okay for Marseille and it's been reported he would be keen to go back. Read somewhere that his lass wants to move back to France. His signing was a disaster from the start, if he stays fine but I don't think he would get in our side. Just move him on imo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LionOfGosforth Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 Is Thauvin actually ever been any good anyway? He was abused and spat at by the Marseille fans before we signed him last season and named in ligue 1 worst eleven. Think he was highly thought of at Bastia. I just think most deserve time under Rafa and his coaches, rather than just getting rid, unless of course they actively pursue leaving. The bloke only played 12 games. Besides, full faith in Rafa to decide if he's worth keeping or not, whatever he decides is fine with me and that includes getting rid if it comes to it. He will be coaching him every day and can see first hand if he has it or not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good bit of knowledge near the bottom of that article... Benitez has combined the capture of players with a track record in the Championship with further heavy spending on Vurnon Anita from Ajax, Jesus Gamez from Atletico Madrid, Arsenal’s Issac Hayden and Gent goalkeeper Matz Sels.

Benitez has combined the capture of players with a track record in the Championship with further heavy spending on Vurnon Anita from Ajax, Jesus Gamez from Atletico Madrid, Arsenal’s Issac Hayden and Gent goalkeeper Matz Sels. And he almost managed to spell 'Isaac' correctly. Well done that man, who has made written journalism his profession, an inspiration to all of us striving for an ambition well out of our reach.

Parsley Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Would rather we went for Forestieri out of the two, but Knockaert is the sort of player we should be looking at IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Knockaert is absolutely class at this level but I wish we'd start being linked with left wingers and not right wingers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chopey Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 I've always liked Forsetieri and its always a good tactic to make your rivals weaker by taking theor better players Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERTOON Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Knockaert would be the best signing we would make all summer, would absolutely love him here, would be an instant fans favourite as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bimpy474 Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 But didn't those in the know on TV said that Rafa wouldn't know anything about the Championship, and what players it would take to get out of it. Wankers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

xLiaaamx Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Tbh. If we sell Sissoko and Thauvin we could buy both of them and Pritchard. And have loads left for a Striker. Sorted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

U2 Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 Everything I've read paints him as an extremely talented player who would utterly terrorize opponents for us. Although, we'll have to pay a fair sum to get him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 He was great for Brighton and Leicester in this league, he was just unfortunate that Leicester bought Mahrez for a decent fee a few years ago and that limited his opportunities. He's a very similar type player to HBA Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
