toontownman Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 King for Ritchie being rumoured as some sort of swap deal by a couple of decent sources on twitter. Are we throwing in Gayle as well? King is about the type of signing I would imagine we would go for, before losing out to west brom or someone like that. He is a punt but a solid player on his day that was overhyped. Either way I'd rather have him here and he would be more useful than Ritchie though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 What on earth does King add to the team? We're just going to chuck him upfront with Wilson in a team that can't progress the ball u the pitch to them. We're better off playing Almiron behind Wilson, and getting ASM and Fraser out wide. What is wrong with these people man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is wrong with these people man. I am assuming if any interest in him is true he would be considered an alternate to Wilson or option for wide left if ASM/Fraser are injured. He would certainly be a better option than Carroll, Gayle or Joelinton. Maybe Bruce clutching at straws because he knows he won't see the ritchie money and wants something out of the deal? Maybe Jones knows where he wants to utilize him lol. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abra Dubravka Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Bournemouth fans love Ritchie. Last I checked they seemed to think it'd be impossible unless we were paying out a fair whack of his remaining contract, or if he took a significant pay cut. It seems ridiculous that he was given a new contract that now ago now, and the club will likely end up having to put its hand in its pocket for him to go play for someone else. If he wasn't given that extension, he'd still be under contract now right? We've literally given him a whole new deal that'll be paid to him playing for another side. This club is monumentally badly at doing anything important like contracts and transfers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Icke - Son of God Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Giving Shelvey a new deal at the same time was a much bigger problem. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abra Dubravka Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Defiantly, but the two aren't mutually exclusive. Neither should have given extensions, but short-sightedness irks me more with Ritchie. Shelvey is the first name on the team sheet when fit, or even half-fit, and see no rumours of him leaving. He was the only player scoring in the side at the time (he should have been anway, plus a striker should have been). Ritchie was playing, fair enough, but not first choice LB, or LW, only when we tried to play WBs. We gave him a new deal, then went out next window and brought a new LB/WB Lewis, and Fraser.

Fantail Breeze Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 I can promise you all, Choudhury is no better than the incredible poor options we already have. He’s a combination of Lee Cattermole and Jonjo Shelvey. The braindead thickery/thuggery of Cattermole and the ambling around Shelvey. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abra Dubravka Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Ugghh, we really don't need Choudhury No idea who we do need, but looking around other clubs signings recently, players like Bissouma, Douglas Luiz, Barkley, Sansom, Doucoure all players that should be in within our ambitions that have gone to other clubs we weren't even linked too. State of investment in our midfield in recent years has been a disgrace. We've just given up buying talented players, that even for whatever reason don't work here, go elsewhere and show we were on right track signing them at least. Shelvey - signed in 2016 when we in desperation for anything. Thought it was a s*** signing then, everything he is being slammed for now was fair and obvious criticism of his game back then. Legitimately the belated and far inferior Cabaye replacement in the midfield then. Hayden - signed as a squad player for Championship season. Fair play to the lad for kicking on, but he's limited to say the least. Hendrick - free signing from Burnley Longstaffs - academy then we've had; Saivet - total mystery this signing, smells of something dodgy behind the scenes. Diame - free signing for Championship Bentaleb - ughhh, total dosser and waste of whatever loan fee paid for him Only midfielder that's been brought into the club with obvious talent and shown to be good enough was Merino. Stand by Wijnaldum being a good signing. Obvious he was a quality player and had talent, but Schteve couldn't motivate him to brush his teeth, yet still scored fair amount. Then you go way back to the likes of Sissoko, Cabaye, Tiote under Carr; even Cabella, Thauvin - all obviously talented and quality players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
