Incredibly nervous, which is understandable given that it was his first time and there was a lot of tough, raw stuff in the air since the last time he spoke publicly. I thought he was ok tactically but doesn't seem like a natural talker. Wouldn't expect to see too much more from him in this...
But he's currently injured. He won't have an opportunity to show he can stay fit until after we've already given him a new contract, and despite his surgery I have a million doubts about that. And if he does stay fit he'll be able to leave on a free the following season anyway so we might still...
I just don't see how we can justify another year after the 5 years he's already had and expect it to be different. He's already picked up an injury on his return from surgery. I feel like it would just be a charitable handout at this stage. As a club we paid a transfer fee and five years of...
Isn't this a bit revisionist? He's played in a deep-lying back 3 and 4 with 2 DMs sitting in front and he still just seemed to switch off far too often. Yes he can look very good and has many skills managers would like but when you're limited in what systems you can play in AND have a tendency...
Yeah I agree with all the good luck, well done, lovely guy stuff, but what on earth are they playing at. I thought it was mad when they signed him and a madder decision to keep him when they're in such an obvious mess. None of their defenders are playing well and he's adding to their list of...
Big fan of both players, but Eze plays more centrally than on the wing so not sure how him and Maddison would work together. Also, both seem to be injured a hell of a lot.
Solomon's career has taken a different trajectory and he's taken to Premier League remarkably well. I just mean that if people can give Sess a chance despite not staying fit or showing much on the pitch in 5 years then surely we can give Solomon 2 years.
Or maybe he was just in a new country, team, and league and it takes a while to get accustomed to it? Everyone else looked shit too but because he was a bit older people are quick to say he was finished. He struggled a bit but the criticism was ridiculously overblown.
It already seems to be there. From a UK perspective there's barely any mention of it, no coverage, and when I do see clips there are no fans. Would be interesting to know if that's the view elsewhere. Hope it dies.
Sessegnon has been here 5 years and still gets chances when deemed fit. There's no hurry if we think he's worth it, and given that we just signed him we presumably do.
It's amazing how far we came from people saying he was one of the worst ever signings. A hell of a lot of people seem to want to get rid of Solomon too on this thread. It's mad how quick people are to bin our new signings without giving them a fair crack.
I don't think he'd turn his nose up at a match-winning individual. I'd say someone like Toney fits the criteria of someone we could get, although I don't wouldn't want him for other reasons. I'm sure there are others, and most teams in Europe aren't/can't be in the market for them for various...
That's an interesting question to ask of someone who has so many deficiencies for a striker at this level. We're playing a system to suit his skill set, and largely because we have to. He doesn't get involved in the build up so much because his touch, vision or even his hold up play isn't great...
I think this kind of mentality could hold us back. By watching him play do you think he'll keep up that scoring rate? Will he make the difference in big games? Will he dig us out of a hole when we play badly? Will his game help us to go up a level in our performances? I commend him for recent...
Really? Upamecano, Di Ligt, Davies, Kimmich, Goretzka, Coman, Gnabry and Musiala were lauded as being some of the best around in their positions not so long ago. Their recent performances wouldn't suggest that but that's down to form or the something else I referred to. There have been much...
Not sure they aren't fussed. Look at the reaction of the players, fans, hierarchy et al. They seem fussed to me. Muller was livid after a loss the other week. Plus Kane and Tuchel will be desperate to win the title. Something else is very wrong there at the moment.
