kurt321 Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 Good player but another that doesn't speak English. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zoo Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 YES! Although realistically a no because he's very similar to Lukaku. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sibdane Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 There's no way we'll get him. I'll happily be proven wrong though. Romey 1878 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted September 17, 2013 Report Share Posted September 17, 2013 Bily was good in Russia too. Agree with what Hanson and/or Shearer (I think) said, playing in Russia is a waste of time compared to other leagues. Someone who is good there wont necessarily adapt to the EPL.

Dalziel Kane Posted September 18, 2013 Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 Good player but another that doesn't speak English. He'd fight right in on Newcastle-upon-Tyne if they can get him ahead of us. Got to say that's an impressive goals to games ratio but as someone has already stated, what's the chances we could actually bring him in. And once again, as stated, someone who is a hit in one league or country may be a miss in another or struggle to adapt. Would be interested to see how he could do here and join up with the other new faces if only we could make the signing. I think in the end though, he won't go to any club in the UK and may decide on another european team as a challenge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sibdane Posted March 31, 2014 Report Share Posted March 31, 2014 Don't get my hopes up. I have a feeling he'll go to a Monaco-type club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same can be said of any league really and In his defence not many players play well when constantly being played out of position Naismith being a prime example.. I genuinely believe if Bily had been here under Martinez and played in his natural role we would have seen a much better player.

Guest Nikica Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 Good player from what I have seen, which is admittedly not much. In other news he's probably the fastest player in the history of the FIFA video game series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
