MikeO Posted October 18, 2021 Report Share Posted October 18, 2021 Do we have an update on his injury? All I can find is from April when they reckoned he'd be out until November so close to getting back maybe, I know he's a bit crap but he's surely a better option than Rondón.

Romey 1878 Posted December 30, 2021 Report Share Posted December 30, 2021 Apparently we're in talks to send him on loan to Besiktas until his contract runs out in the summer. What a terrible, terrible signing he's been. Why on earth did we allow Bisto Tits to spend £24m on a player when he was never going to be here past the end of that season?!

Sibdane Posted December 30, 2021 Report Share Posted December 30, 2021 The sooner he’s gone, the better. He obviously doesn’t have a future here, and we need him off the books. Shades of Jelavic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Briefly, if you remove his opening burst in the second half of 2011/12 from his record stats are... Jelavić 10 goals in 53 games. Tosun 11 goals in 59 games. Also, don't have the numbers to hand but I'd be willing to bet Tosun made more sub appearances so likely on a goals per minute basis he'd be the more "prolific". I'd start him over Rondon all day long. Sibdane 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God I'll be so happy when we finally clear out the last few dregs of those nightmare signings we made when we suddenly had cash and spunked it up every wall we could find on the likes of Tosun, Walcott, Bolassie and Iwobi.

Zoo 2.0 Posted December 31, 2021 Report Share Posted December 31, 2021 Jelavic was sensational when he first signed for us, he was honestly unplayable in those first six months where everything he touched (literally) found the back of the net. He admitted himself that he skipped training a few times that summer and when the next season started he was already off the pace - never really got it back and ended up at Hull and then in the lower leagues of the Chinese League. In regards to Tosun, he would have been OK as a third choice but never good enough to be first (or second) choice IMO, though his horrendous injury won't have helped matters. I don't begrudge him sitting on his wage either, anyone in his shoes would do the same. badaids, StevO and Matt 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c1982 Posted December 31, 2021 Report Share Posted December 31, 2021 In Tosun’s defence - he went to Palace and there was talk that the deal would have become permanent but got injured and then likewise this time last year at Besiktas where injury ruled out any permanent deal this summer.

Tosun had a strong start? I desperately wanted him too because I think he's a brilliant finisher based on the training challenges but he's not had a strong game let alone a run of them.
