I’d take the risk on Sanusi for half a season and flog Murphy at this point.

Quick question.

Who is going to buy him?

Also, let’s assume someone did, at best they would be a miserable Championship team, which one of those is going to pay him the wages that we do?

[Aiston]

What a dreadful attempt to lob the keeper that was

 

Closer to the corner flag than the goal.

[Smal]

thought he was fine. Team shape always seems decent when he plays. We need better but that’s not news.

He gives the ball away too much to be classed as fine, but you are right about the shape.

[BermyToon]

He's a League 1 player. We need a right winger urgently in January.

Got all the physical tools just not the composure or football IQ.

He reminds me a lot of Obertan, although Obertan obviously never gave half as much for the cause. 

[Lush Vlad]

He really does go from the sublime to the ridiculous. Often in the same passage of play. 
 

He had a good game overall. But his lack of quality and some of his passing was really annoying.
 

Not his fault, I guess. Just his level. If anything, a lot of the time he plays, he is up to his usual standards or exceeding them. Whereas others are off it and get a free pass. He just has limitations and shouldn’t really be starting games for us. Not if we have genuine ambitions to win things and get top 4-6.  

[Dr.Spaceman]

He's shite, but we knew that ages ago. It's a mystery how he's still starting for us yet we've got too many players in other positions. I don't dislike him, just wish he'd leave.

[Crimson Cardigan]

He speaks really well. And he was decent tonight and unlucky not to score.

One day we will have that right wing position with similar quality to our current left side. I'd love to see us dangerous with quality across the front three in their natural positions.

Both wingers missed one-on-ones.

 

the future is now.

He's not shite like. Your post is. It's like something from a 12yr old who only sees things in great or shit and in truth even the great is 5 or 6 players in the entire world, the rest are shit

He's shite, relative to the rest of the players in other teams starting 11's. Nobody else in the PL is taking him off our hands, ever. We probably couldn't give him away for free.

[AyeDubbleYoo]

He's overall not a PL-quality player IMO, maybe for a promoted team they could accept his mistakes. I feel the same about Longstaff. But you can't dislike either of them because they play to their max and love the club. But ideally they shouldn't be playing.

Grow up. He's class.

Relative to ours and Liverpools ? Well he played and played OK. Wouldn't get in their team, does get in ours. Possibly would get in a few lower prem teams but age is now an issue.

Because I think he's a very poor footballer. We're allowed to have different opinions, it's what makes life great.

 

If you want me to be all grown up about it, I think his positional play is absolutely shocking, he comes inside too often so when Tino receives the ball at full back he has nowhere to go because Lord Jacob has wandered in-between two or three Liverpool players. He did that several times tonight and he's done it a shit load throughout the season. Like what Ian said there's a semi-decent player in there somewhere but we'll never see it regularly because he hasn't got what it takes. We'll see a decent game from him once or twice a season. He's Obertan.

[AyeDubbleYoo]

FWIW when he gave the ball away for their goal, Joelinton got it and gave it away a second time. Didn't really clock that at the time because I was so angry with Murphy

So he's held his own at this level but is shit ?

 

I think he's a lower level prem/top end of championship player. Re positional play tonight he was all at sea due to Tino who looks like he doesn't the ball, he just wants to defend.

[AyeDubbleYoo]

I think the new RW needs to be primarily a left footer who will cut inside, if we keep Tino at RB. I know fans still won't stop whinging about inverted wingers but it makes the most sense IMO.

You're absolutely mental here.
