thenige Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 My Dennis Wise style scout report: + Has a sweet left foot and can hammer the ball + Has pace and can dribble + Takes a good pen - Right foot is for standing only. Haven't found a single clip from my extensive *cough* scouting of him using his right foot at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Interesting how the price seems to have dropped by £10 million all of a sudden. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a quick look at him, Strange eyebrows Gangly One footed Scores pens we never get Runs forward not sideways Very left footed Seems pacey all from YT clips Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
healthyaddiction Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Interesting how the price seems to have dropped by £10 million all of a sudden. It was $30m. That's £20m. That's a drop of about £3m I think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bimpy474 Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Mental that, when we finally break our transfer record, it's on an MLS player. Won't this beat Alphonso Davies as the record MLS sale? £20.5m is a huge, risky fee. This club works on weird logic. Still cheap in today's prices, granted the league he's being bought from like, but £20m isn't that much these days, well except for us like. £20.5m is still a bit steep to be buying from the MLS, a league inferior to the PL. If it was £20m from a decent european league fair enough. He's clearly well above MLS standards though. At this point imo it's akin to a 20m gamble on an Eredivisie standout. Still cheap when compared to Eredivisie stand out De Jong the youngest who is going for £75m odd. It's a gamble but not the astronomical gamble with the prices these day, just in my opinion like.

Yorkie Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Tbh I don't really know what to think if this goes through. Literally in the last couple of days I'd finally, later than so many others, accepted that Rafa needed to leave ASAP for the greater interests of the club. But if this happens, surely it means they've somewhat relented to Rafa's entirely reasonable demand that we spend what we earn? Does that mean the beginning of a sea change where we start investing properly in the club? Of course it doesn't. But will it make him sign a contract? Surely not...? Then there's the reality of the transfer itself; one player - totally new to the league, taking a massive step up - isn't going to transform this bag of shite team.

Yorkie Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Danny Mills. Such waffle. I mean, who really cares, but still; Christ knows what some of these blokes actually get paid for. A Premier League football club has been linked with the guy all month. If you're at all qualified to discuss the matter, do a bit of research and justify your position with a comment worth hearing.

No, this will not be the start of proper investment it's a token gesture to trick him to stay. They will still be back to the the old bargain bucket ways from the summer for the foreseeable future And yes it will make him sign a new contract 100%. Want a bet on it as well?

Al Pards hadn't heard of Wijnaldum iirc Yeah if I recall correctly, he didn't seem too impressed being asked if we were linked with him, either. Good ole Graeme.

Al Pards hadn't heard of Wijnaldum iirc As much as I love him, big Al didn't know who HBA was when we signed him. Pundits by and large seem to think they're there for their expertise as former-players alone, which is a shame. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
