bigbluewillie 1,930 Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 Vesper I think I agree with you on all points. Just to add I think he's perma fucked. A fucking disaster buy, and for £80M Vesper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A fucking disaster buy, and for £80M The saddest part is, in terms of raw talent I would say Fofana is the best of the 3 French CB's that we brought to the club. bigbluewillie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giving that we are going for South America and especially two from Ecuador, I remember we was interested in Hincapie. I watched the qualifier of Bolivia vs Ecuador and he was good....granted it's Bolivia, but he is young and worth a shot me thinkgs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disasi does have his aerial dominance and passing ability though that makes him valuable. Both have their strengths. lucio 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ledg 643 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 He was instrumental in probably our best defenfesive display this season. Except for Sanchez howler (nothing to do with him), Wolves had two shots from Larsen and Cuhna for the stats and that was that. How does the higher-ups have the jobs that they do? P.S. His topics is still in the "Out on loan". Took me a while to find it. 😅 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 (edited) Why we loaned him out is beyond me. Looked very comfortable all game, ok not perfect but still very very comfortable. Shambolic decision to loan him in the summer 👍 Edited January 20 by OneMoSalah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mário César 1,257 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 I read somewhere that Maresca finally said that board wanted to sold chalobah because of fpf he is a yes man we already knew that chalobha is good enough to be a solid squad option and far better than at least disasti and I think he is better than badiashile and he can play also as a right back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much better option than Tosin, Disasi & Badiashile. Sometimes better than Levi who has been up and down. Was so evident last season with Pochettino never mind now but yes, Maresca maybe should of fought harder if he really rated him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
