I was being sarcastic. If what you are saying is indeed the truth, good on the club. A teen shouldn't be entitled to anything. On talent alone, I think he could have offered something right now and in the long term. However, based on the rumoured fees, he certainly wasn't worth that outlay.

He only turned 25 a few months ago and hasn't played alongside elite players, so those are aspects that he could certainly improve on with more quality around him.

Tottenham supposedly paid €10m loan fee for Tel with a €60m transfer fee should they make it permanent. I'm extremely happy he "snubbed" us at that cost.

Agree to disagree. Most of the top CF's excel because of their physical presence while he exceeds elsewhere (understanding of the game, movement, etc).

I personally can't think of a more technically gifted CF than him in world football. The difference between him & Jackson is staggering.

That was in the group stages. I'm sure Palmer will be added to our squad for the KO stages, so his game time would be even less. I totally agree someone should have been signed to fill his void, but we have been crying out for another CF for months and look where we are.

The last thing we really need. It could have been a blessing in disguise for him. I guess we'll find out the full extent tomorrow.

Looks like Guiu could have a problem. Nkunku V Brighton? 🥲

You can only beat those in front of you, which we are doing. We've struggled because Jackson can't be replied upon. Look at our home performance V Brighton. Our roster is certainly a big reason behind that, as there doesn't seem to be any repercussions for under performing. As much as people might slate Mudryk, having a viable option to displace the English duo was good to have.

It's not a coincidence that Maresca actually made changes early and we are reaping the rewards. Go for a third without overcommitting. The former has been far more lively than NJ.

They are taking the mick right now. Two offsides they are looking at? Trying hard to do us over. Keep attacking now!

He's a free agent.....

Nkunku isn't going anywhere till June at the earliest, so he needs to be used more often in matches like this at AM, not CF. Edit - Good changes. I hope Palmer is going to the right or interchanging with Nkunku at least. No excuses for him now.

It's much easier to play well when things are going well. When they aren't. it takes characters/leaders to get the team going again. We have none.

I was going to say about 5 minutes ago when he got lucky - Colwill has a mistake in him EVERY SINGLE GAME. This nonsense needs to stop about age or he'll eventually come good. It's like clockwork.

Palmer has looked off it for a number of games despite his goals. Not sure if it's a combination of things or he's playing with some sort of issue.

Enzo and Madueke with big chances. They have to be testing the GK.

Of course. However, as I said, if Jorgensen has the basics under wraps, we won't have to be complaining each week about GK howlers. I'm not going to do the maths during the game, but you can look up how many points Sanchez has cost us from Aug to Jan. Jackson. He has no presence at all.

If you aren't directly contributing to the opposition scoring, how can someone be deemed worse? All Jorgensen needs to do is the basics well enough, and the place should be his till the summer, where Petrovic deserves another go. So do I. Another performance similar to Wolves is what we need (minus the GK howler). As I type, Madueke should have given us the lead.

Maresca just isn't keen on him and wasn't from the get go.

A small bit of faith restored in Maresca after Sanchez's dropping. Long overdue. We have to take advantage of other results this weekend.

At worst, he'll be sold for a profit. Have you not figured out how this board works yet?

If the average age of our squad wasn't low enough. Leaders, what are they? 😪

You forgot Gittenstoo. The targets aren't surprising in the slightest, as we are being linked with almost any who has a connection to City's academy. They are clearly talented, but we need players who can take us up a level right now, not three/four years (if we're lucky).

Vlahovic did a good job of hiding it yesterday 😄
