He was very promising indeed, but injuries have ruined the last years for him. Think he wouldn't look so out of place in our team at the moment.

This loan restriction may be a blessing in disguise for us. 

why do you think so? I think the loan system has been one of the few things the board did ok at. It is a steady stream of income. Loan shit players until they maximize their value and then sell them amassing profit. Sure they fuck it up often enough and sell to late or don't prolong the contracts early enough but in principle exploiting the loan system and ambitious players as cash-cows is a brilliant concept.

Was always gonna be out of his depth here but good to see hes managed to rebuild his reputation as he was a promising player when playing for Augsburg. 

He actually was a mediocre player back then and we got milked because they were in a strong position and we were desperate and dumb enough not to look for better options which were available back then. Even more stupid that we bought him in the same year we let go of Filipe Luis and Ryan Bertrand, two vastly superior players. No idea why the board were so damn retarded even for their standards.

I think hes declining yes but hes still a very good player. In terms of top quality LBs there still arent a huge number who are at that level so its not that ridiculous. Fair enough the Sandros, Albas, etc are still about but Luis is still a top full back.

No, no he isnt. Not at all.

The forgotten man with a goal & assist in his final game for Reims.

well, shit, he finally looks healthy

about a million times faster than Slowlonso

and I am NOT sold on Emerson, even though I do dmit he is now also finally healthy

we should give him a shot in preseason

I never understood why we never gave him a full year on the team to at least see if he could handle the EPL

he certainly has the athletic ability

ANYTHING TO SHIP MARCOS OUT OUT OUT I am down down down with

I am so beaten down by all the bad news that I only want 4 things

toss Higuain back to Italy

sell Alonso

win the EL so we knock Arse out

and just do whatever it takes to at least end up 6th next year (assuming the bans are not frozen)

 

keep Sarri, sack Sarri, recalls of loanees, buy Kovacic, dont buy Kovacic, whatever

dont care anymore, I am resigned to whatever happens (yes including Eden, it is pointless to force him to stay)

His inability to stay fit was the only thing halting him. Hope he manages to have a solid AFCON & is given a chance on his return.

Another example of what I see as the immature decision making which persuades me that Arkaidy has been involved in transfer activity.

[y10edn 185]

one clip is not enough to judge a player, he looked fragile while here. he can come for preseason but to conclude with a10 seconds shine

will be absurd.

I've watched a number of his games at Reims & he deserves a chance in preseason at the very least.

He'll probably be Ghana's starting LB as well, so people will be able to see what he can offer.

I rather sell Alonso than Baba I would  have Rahman and Emerson fight for the left back position 

[1905didierblue 748]

5mil? I hope that's a loan fee. Did not we buy him for 20mil?
