Aidan

Imagine the fume if we'd have signed him last summer!

If you read my post you'll see I wasn't disagreeing with you.

But do we get that pen at the other end that's the question you need to ask yourself. Those fouls happen countless times a week in the box and the vast majority are not given as penalties.

For some reason this triggered a thought in my head about how good Hibbo was at slide tackles.

But we've all seen him play, he has a lot more to his game than just this. He is a good defender, but lacks a lot of pace. Would obviously suit a 3 man defence.

I would imagine if we spent £35m+ on a player he would be expected to start the vast majority of games. But at 20 years old, he's only started 11 games in the Ligue 1 (21 subs appearances on top of this, totalling 1350 minutes). He's clearly highly thought of, but I'm not expecting him to come in and vastly improve our midfield right away. On a positive side it would be nice to have an absolute powerhouse in our midfield, something we've lacked since Fellaini. He's 6'5 and looks really quick too, and seems to have good technique.

Suggests we're still in the market for another CB.

Paul Joyce confirmed that Onana would be in addition to Gueye.

Makes you wonder why he'd prefer us to be honest. £££?

I don't think we should start weaker players out of sympathy.

He seems to have scoring instinct, would still rather him than rondon.

Club is a shitshow

I actually really like the badge. Still, nothing can be worse than the 2013 Nike badge.

I'd like to see us better in possession, but I still don't see how we do that with the midfield we currently have.

I was waiting for that. Yeah agreed, he is a bit trash

Probably one of the better options we can have to back up Dom. Not sure he'd want to play second fiddle though. It's hard for any team to find a quality experienced striker who is happy to come off the bench and take his chance, let alone a mid table team.

It's bollocks. Nonsensical. Just shows how thick some fans are. Because James Milner, Jagiekla, Wijnaldum, Robertson, Maguire, Richy, Gana, Roy Keane are all rubbish aren't they? The team got relegated, a squad of 20+ players, not the individual. Stick Ronaldo in the Norwich team last season, they'd probably still go down, doesn't make him a bad player does it?

Signed for 8, sold for 30, signing him back for 8.

Have seen him play once for PSG I think. How did they use him?

What worries me is that running around annoying the opposition was the best part of his game. If he's lost that, which he will eventually with age, he literally has nothing else to offer. It's not like he's going to adapt his game and become a Gareth Barry. I think he will improve the squad in the present, but for how long I'm not so sure about. Doesn't feel like a sensible singing for me.

Didn't know that Dunc, I was based at HMS Collingwood for a couple of years. Love that part of the country.

Didn't want Rooney coming back, definitely dont want that rat coming back.

I hope he comes back, I've missed this thread.
