Some comments from Fulham fans recently:

 

"Scott Parker seems to like him and believes in him, but I haven't seen anything that makes him stand out as being that good. I can count on one hand the number of decent performances he has had for Fulham. Doesn't create or score goals, has missed numerous chances in front of goal. i was expecting after the praise he got from Palace fans and performances for England U23 to be a lot better than he has been. At present out of our loan signings he is probably one that I would not try to sign permanently."

 

"There’s a player in there tbf but he’s been too inconsistent and let games drift by him too often for my liking personally."

I think he could be a hit in Italy or Bundesliga but he doesn't strike me as someone who would like to go abroad. Also no midtable club south of the channel can afford his wages and he clearly will not cut it at the very top.

Really interesting how in the past two years our standout performers in the later stages of the respective seasons, RLC and Pulisi , completely dropped off after an injury sustained in the closing weeks and have been absolutely pants since.

Funny thing is, this is what I and a lot of other people were saying about him for years but people weren't having it.

Agreed. He was slowly suffering the Oscar syndrome. People backed Oscar's poor performances and inconsistencies on his brace against Juventus. Similar to Ruben with his performance against City in the EFL Cup final and goals against mid table/Europa league standard clubs in 2019. 

He lacks that mental grit and aggressiveness you want in a player.

He, Barkley, Tammy, and Tomori 

Should realistically get almost 100 million. 

I think Tammy, Tomori and Ruben can get us 30m each. Barkley wont get as much but any profit on the 15m we signed him for why not. He isnt good enough.

Such a great shame to get that injury right at the time he was really starting to blossom as a player. Seems to have lost muscle and doesn't physically the same person anymore and a shadow of the player he was just before that injury.

Sadly,  looks so far from good enough for us now that we have no choice but to move him on.

Said it before, but I think Tuchel can extract more out of RLC, just like he has with our other midfielders...His comments about RLC today might have been just part of pre match banter, but they are interesting. The question is where RLC would fit in an already crowded midfield.

Who is paying £30m for RLC and £15m for Barkley when they also have to give them £100k-£150k a week wages? 

Those two are heading for Baka/Batsh*t territory.
