IIRC he suffered two ACL injuries like Wilson. Didn’t get back in the team. Was loaned out to Villa, they then got promoted and he was signed permanently (for a profit!). Mings played less than 20 league games in 3.5 years. Does that sound good to you? Like I said. He and Howe were desperately unlucky with the injuries. He was sold for a profit so I wouldn’t consider him a total flop but it wasn’t a success either. On 15/03/2023 at 17:02, ponsaelius said: Danjuma wasn't really a flop for Bournemouth. He got injured, then played very well in the Champ, and was sold for twice as much as they paid for him. Bournemouth are a tough club to buy PL standard players for. Remember he was very keen on Schar but couldn't convince him to go there. Would we consider Mitrovic a success at NUFC? Danjuma was a big signing for Bournemouth in the PL. He didn’t score any goals in the PL. Not one. And they got relegated at the end of the season. That’s not a success. Fair point on selling for a profit.

Cronky Posted March 17, 2023 Share Posted March 17, 2023 Interesting player. The highlights on YT tend to show him beating opponents or scoring, but the occasional footage of a pass shows some ability there. At £33m and 20 years old, he looks a bargain, but I don't think we've yet won a transfer contest with a big six club, and there seems to be widespread interest. If we get into the CL, we may have a chance. Not otherwise, I fear. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can he be good at dribbling and poor at passing whilst playing in the centre? Looks like he attempts a lot of forward and creative passes which tend to get cut out more. Ones that make it get results. Needs to pass it backwards more to boost his % and remove the weak passing tag. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
