Feels like we’re shopping around in TK Maxx looking for a Burbury trench coat and we’re coming out with a discounted Umbro puffer jacket... Thats what I've been trying to tell everyone all along...well mostly those convinced we'll be making a serious promotion push next season. Though Umbro puffer jackets aren't bad to be fair. I had one a few years ago and it was great for really cold weather. Only got rid of it because it just felt too bulky (and a bit chavvy). Link to post Share on other sites

But then you voted yes to Brexit making said scouting network more or less useless as we can’t afford or attract talent that comply with the rules👏 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Sory Kaba scored btw and was my man of the match - A lot of fight and determination - We could for sure use a player like him! 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Furthermore can I say - He has more skills with the ball than Assombalonga and Akpom combined ... When he started to become a regular for FCM, he didnt score enough .. But he has worked aaaaaard and added goals to his game! The previous FCM striker Paul Onuachu received same review by BD, but that player is doing REALLY well in the Belgium League with 33 goals in 38 games for GENK! I would sign Sory Kaba today, if it was my job ... But as BD correctly said, he won't be cheap, as FCM do great "buy cheap, sell expensive" bussines! 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites
DanFromDownSouth 1,706 Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Tom Heaton off to United apparently, he was my unrealistic Goalkeeper free agent choice. Link to post Share on other sites
JMC91 280 Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 I noticed a few people from football stats crowd talking about Gauld on Twitter this week as he was left out the Scotland squad. One claimed he’d been a top 3 player in the Primeira this season despite being in a team that’s been fighting relegation for most of the season. Seems like it would be a top signing but I think he’s probably out of our league at the moment, there are probably bigger clubs willing to take a chance on him. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Watching the state of De Gea trying to save penalties won't have improved his stock any. Granted most of the penalties were extremely well taken but his body language and attempts just never really gave belief that he had any belief in himself. The one that he took which lost the game was a shame for anyone but again his body language was far from convincing. Link to post Share on other sites

But he looked very poor when barely attempting at the Villareal penalties. There are probably people saying he pulled out when he realised he wasn't going to save them but I would much rather see the keeper commit. His miss is likely his last kick for the club too!

Romero is as good as gone, and there are rumours that they (United) are expecting either De Gea or Henderson to go too (as they both want to be first choice). If no-one comes in for De Gea, I think Henderson will go out on loan for the season. Then they also have Lee Grant out of contract this summer too, could potentially end up needing to sign another keeper on top of Heaton. Link to post Share on other sites

Just read somewhere that he has missed saving 40 penalty kicks in a row(for club and Country including shoot outs), something like a 0.04% chance of that happening. 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites
