He's been playing as a support striker behind the other lad though, and they've been banging them in between them. 8 goals (4 assists) in 13 this season isn't bad anyway.

 

I'm still glad we didn't sign him, as pretty sure we'd have not got Isak, but you can see he's got a lot of ability now he's gone to the right kind of club to play for.

Speaking of Frankfurt. Anyone seen much of Omar Marmoush? Looks like a very exciting and versatile quality player from the little I’ve seen. 


He’s their next big sale so I expect he won’t be cheap. Is a good few years older than Ekitike too.

What a season this kid is having. 2 goals today 11 in 18 in the league.

 

Not a patch on Isak mind but shows our scouting is so good

Imagine him under Eddie's wing for a year or two. He's absolutely quality. Frankfurt got him for a bargain.

He had looked really good for Frankfurt, combined with Mamoush really well. Can see why Eddie liked him as a player.

His current value makes this a no go although it vindicates our initial interest in him. This needs to be our MO - promising youngsters from the continent we can buy before they become 50/60/70m players.

The issue was never his ability. It was his attitude and ego. If a player has snubbed you twice, each time pretending like they were going to sign before getting cold feet, then you don't go for them a third time.

There was no way he was gonna turn PSG down. Even though it didn't work out for him he can't be blamed at all. I'd love to see him here. He's quality.

remember we were so close to signing him but ended up with Isak so no complaints there, however seems like he has the potential to hit similar heights 

Once again it shows how good our scouting team is. We do miss a few gems to others like Brighton, Bournemouth and so on. But we rarely seem to make bad signings.

We should have got him after PSG - 16.5m was insanely cheap even after we'd been knocked back twice. 
Wouldn't need Wilson replacement at that point

This isn’t FM. He wouldn’t choose to come here and sit on the bench when he had offers to play.
