Starfelt next hopefully That’s 2 players bought that can play forward in Furuhashi and Abada and Ange also gave Griffiths a new contract. With him favouring Ajeti in pre-season, do you think that means Edouard won’t play much ?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edouard has been carrying an injury which is why he hasn’t been involved much however we all know he’s for the off. At least we are bringing players in and there is still possibly Starfelt, Lawal , Soppy to come in and noise about Davies on loan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, nobody can argue about the level of financial backing Ange is getting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will no doubt bring quality but you can't help but feel these guys should've been in the door for the start of pre-season to get up to speed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you say it does look as if he is being backed which hopefully means we can compete better than we did last season. 37 minutes ago, AJF said: Aye, I was more thinking along the lines of the players coming into the squad just days before your first match.

The biggest problem was the length of time we took to bring in a manager. It doesn’t give him much time to evaluate players and any signings brought in early pre season may have been players that Ange didn’t have input on or fit how he wants to play I’d much rather the signings brought are ones that fit his vision and philosophy which is a gamble for the short term with qualifiers however we should hopefully have enough just now to grab a win to take to Denmark. Here is hoping anyway Edited July 16, 2021 by Jinky67 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not certain however if he won’t sign a new contract i’m not sure we can afford to allow him to leave for nothing considering our initial outlay for him. Our chances are better if he stays of course 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottish teams are more likely to pick up more coefficient points in the Europa League anyway so my conscience is clear in wanting them to crash out of the CL. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If reports in the Record are to be believed I’m surprised it’s taken Furuhashi this long to be snapped up. Sounds like you may have signed a cracking player. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do seem to be playing hardball with regards to fees if the Ajer transfer is anything to go by and with us rejecting Leicesters advances it possibly puts clubs off, who knows. I'm excited by this transfer tbh, seems a real talent. Iniesta speaks really highly of him saying he has the tools to be a real success in Europe. That man knows a baller so i'm hoping he's right. I don't expect him to be as good as Naka but if he has an ounce of that ability he will do well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good defensive forward, is good at carrying the ball, doesn't hang about when shooting, and doesn't miss too much. Poor aerial ability usually hints at poor physicality for strikers though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s only 5’7 so I could see that being a reason behind not really winning anything in the air. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew Brees Posted July 19, 2021 Share Posted July 19, 2021 Basically the manager is saying that he has been told that he's to include a fucking nonce in the squad? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
