Tubestationatmidnight Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Decent bloke when not smiling and laughing about letting in goals in Derby games. Gone please. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowndsy Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 That rumour was started by that Tom Clements. Who created the alonso and Barkley rumours. Ignore it. Its amazing how many people still fall for it. He does it every single day. I know. He even tried to re start the alonso rumour. Posting the same photos again. Saying they were that day Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Some talk on Twitter we're peddling Krul to West Ham for £9m. Reece Oxford in exchange please. Granted I realise its a non-starter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Looks like Pardew's been priced out then. He doesn't want to be here though so we should probably flog him for about £3m. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in the minority with keeping wijnaldum. If we managed to fetch upwards of 25m I will gladly escort him there myself. Confident we could bring a couple of players in that would excite me more than a sulky gini. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Fairly incredible, the difference in general opinion on Wijnaldum compared to Sissoko. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 I'd love it if he stayed tbh, i just expected him to leave since we got relegated so mentally i don't care anymore. Kinda of feel the same with Sissoko up to a point, accepted both will leave so it doesn't matter to me if they do or don't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mighty__mag Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Grant Hanley, we waited years and years to see the back of Steven Taylor, and now it seems we are considering a similar type? I take it Hanley will be miles less clumbsy,cringeworthy, and injury prone. But it's hardly a massive step up in defensive personnel. There must be better out there?

Hanshithispantz Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Wijnaldum's a far, far better footballer than Sissoko. Not a chance he stays but he's a player we'd really want if we come back up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah he's a coward, every time he gets it he just passes it sideways or backwards, never tries an incisive pass which for a player of his technique is very cowardly IMO Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deuce Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 "Coward" is as over- and misused a term as its antonym. Anyway, I'm still of the opinion that we keep and play both Sissoko and Wijnaldum until someone makes a respectable offer. We don't have the luxury of fucking them off just because "we don't like them." At the end of the day, they're both good players who'd start for many PL clubs.

KaKa Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 Honestly, I'm not that big a fan of either of them. Gini was shockingly absent in so many games. I remember watchin and wondering where he was so often, and we desperately needed him to get involved. I really don't like his game that much at all. Still not sure where he should be playing either. Seems a luxury player that you could perhaps slot into a team with lots of quality players and he can just goal poach then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has much better technique but he's a massive coward on and off the ball You could say that about loads of players in the situation he was in, even Sissoko as the term is pretty much synonymous with playing shite. I wouldn't stick up for his application last season when it was obviously going wrong, I was fully behind dropping him (and Shelvey and playing, urgh, Colback). But he's so good on the ball that he's worth sticking with now we have a proper manager building a proper squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah he's a coward, every time he gets it he just passes it sideways or backwards, never tries an incisive pass which for a player of his technique is very cowardly IMO I doubt any player tried more 1-2s into the box than he did last season. There were times he'd do literally fuck all the entire game and look totally shit, but it wasn't because he wasn't willing to play anyone in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I prefer Sissoko to him. When Sissoko plays poorly as he often does he's still trying to create things running at people and trying to get the ball to the strikers. Wijnaldum just hides and never gives an option for a pass and then if it somehow gets to him he just passes it back Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems a luxury player that you could perhaps slot into a team with lots of quality players and he can just goal poach then. I'd agree with the apples and oranges except this was wijnaldums first year in a new league, at a new club playing under a terrible coaching regime alongside a team plummeting. I'm not going to say his invisibility in too many games was acceptable but he certainly has more excuses to fall back on than Sissoko. I've said it before and I will say it again. If we had managed to stay up the majority of the board would be optimistic and seeing his goal return as a very promising first season rather than using him as another scapegoat for many players and management's failure.

Hanshithispantz Posted July 9, 2016 Share Posted July 9, 2016 I agree, I don't really get the comments about Sissoko not applying himself. But if it was one or the other I'd go with Wijnaldum as I'd be genuinely exited to see how he fares in an actual functioning side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
