TRon Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 I refuse to believe he'd choose West Brom over us, so why did we choose Willock over him? Very disappointing. And if he thinks playing every week for West Brom will get him in the Euros squad, he's wrong. Because we're absolutely shit at being a football club AMN desperate to play centre midfield, would have surely jumped at the chance should assurances have been made of his position. He's the exact type of player we need. Yet we let him go to a team who are going to be relegated and instead go for a player who has shown nothing to suggest he's particularly good or effective in the premier league. You don't think the move to the north east might have been a factor? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Looks like the Choudhury deal is unlikely as well as it looks like Leicester have failed to sign the midfielder they wanted to bring in according to Sky. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rafalove Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 We’ve stoped Elliott Anderson from going out on loan. Seems pointless if he’s gonna be pushed back out the squad when Joelinton gets back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Looks like the Choudhury deal is unlikely as well as it looks like Leicester have failed to sign the midfielder they wanted to bring in according to Sky. Exactly why we will wait to announce willock until nearly deadline despite it probably already being done. Maybe that's a bit too optimistic and we get no one.

Oh yeah, I definitely saw him pick the odd loose ball up and turn and pass it to a team mate. Lucky for the opposition that he passes the ball quickly, they would be bouncing off him in all directions if they got into physical tussle with the beaver faced juggernaut.

toontownman Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Just Willock it is then.. IF we get him over the line. SSN: Leicester are unlikely to pursue their interest in Nathanial Chalobah after Watford made it clear they didn’t want the 26-year-old to leave on loan.

number9shirt Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Let's get this straight, we spent the whole month chasing Choudhury but we couldn't get him because Leicester couldn't get Chalobah because we wouldn't loan Matty to Watford. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fantail Breeze Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Choudury has been the shittest of all names mentioned so it will be him if anyone Apart from Gueye, he's the only one who seems to be a midfield enforcer who could play the Diame role. We do need a player of that type, and although I'm not convinced he's much good on the ball, he would be much better equipped to close down opponents than Shelvey or Hendrick. If you think Choudury could play that role, you’ve never watched him play football. He is genuinely League One quality. He’d be a good signing for the mackems.

Well he's certainly not a playmaker, I assumed he was being brought into the side to put some legs in midfield. If he's as bad as you say you'd have thought Brendan would have loaned him out in a shot. What use would he be to a CL chasing side? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
