Pizy 19,258 Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 I see that along with Reece and Mount, Mendy is also going to be offered a new deal. But should we really be rushing to offer Edou a new contract? Are we sure he’s our best long term solution? He can be a fantastic shot stopper when in form but also makes so many silly errors and let’s in a few that he shouldn’t. His distribution can look serviceable sometimes and woeful others. We should definitely hold off on any contract offer until we’ve seen the type of season he has. bigbluewillie, Vesper and ChrissWTF 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mendy stresses me out far too often I hate two things above all else PGMOL robberies and then STUPID errors that lead to goals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's an obligatory buy clause included in the loan but it will only get triggered if he plays a lot of games for them. If he doesn't perform they could easily just bury him in the stands like Milan did with Bakayoko to avoid paying a fee for the permanent transfer. In his first start he got hooked at half time even though another one of their CBs had just gotten sent off with two yellowsso early signs aren't so great. That isn't a good start, then. Let's hope he picks up for everyone's sake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluesman2610 1,430 Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 We should have been going after Donnarumma when he was available on a free even when we had initially signed Mendy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vegetable 830 Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 If the club got Mendy, they could probably got Maignan as well instead, for some reason they didn't, perhaps Cech rated Mendy higher. And mix of Donnaruma looking for money move + Raiola to deal with, c'mon… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
