DDA 9,941 Posted August 22, 2024 Share Posted August 22, 2024 If we play Felix in his proper position.. CAM… he is going to make a HUGE difference to this team. Mark my words. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Armour 4,442 Posted September 2, 2024 Share Posted September 2, 2024 (edited) Had one glorious run in the game where he had the Palace defenders at his mercy, but produced a weak effort at goal. Hope Maresca makes Felix channel his ability to create openings for other players instead of trying to do everything himself. Not saying he can't finish a move himself, like he did against Wolves, but IMO he is at his best drawing defenders and creating space for other decisive attackers like Palmer.

Strike 7,490 Posted December 12, 2024 Share Posted December 12, 2024 Has been seriously underwhelming especially when we know the talent is there. Was the Atletico player of the season in 21-22. I think he can be a crucial player to give Palmer some rest in the busy period. But bringing him on after 89 mins isn't a good idea - he looked disinterested from the moment he came on and let Maddison run around him easily to set up the Son goal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dimmas 131 Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 (edited) What happened to him here? Maresca actually rated him highly as a skillful player. Maresca himself said that Palmer and Félix are the types of players fans come to watch The club and Maresca agreed to buy him permanently for such a high fee with a contract until 2030. Does he need to be offloaded (to gain game time) because there's only one spot for him? And he has to compete directly with Palmer?  Edited February 6 by dimmas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does he need to be offloaded (to gain game time) because there's only one spot for him? And he has to compete directly with Palmer?  I think what happened is FFP. Essentially the club needed to get Gallagher's lovely HG money on the books. The only way to do it, was via an asset swap - which meant Felix coming in. However, Felix was only seen as an asset and not a real member of the squad as the club want to realise the £40m odd in actual cash at some point. Hence, he floated around the squad for a little while and was moved on asap. He wasn't ever really a player for us, despite being in the squad. I have said a few times, but people need to realise we are being run like an hedge fund investment. It is also why the majority of our purchases are 'spray and pray' type signings by and large. Edited February 6 by King Kante Fernando 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fernando 6,585 Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 It's sad about Mudryk because I think he could have the same impact in Serie A. All our rejects can do good in Italy. But not good enough for this league, so not bother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mhsc 1,097 Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 Felix will impress a lot in any shit league given guaranteed starts and just left alone to float around and do what he feels vs a team that isn't pressing him. He's a very limited player with a few silky traits that make him look better than he is if you look at the game just superficially, but in the end his performances and repeatedly being dropped and shown the door as fast as possible by every big team he's ever played for speaks for itself.

Mhsc 1,097 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 Seems like he's playing pretty badly in Italy too and they don't look likely to want to buy him in summer We can probably trick someone else into buying him if we take an L on him and just move him on quickly in summer for £35m or something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been decided to cut off from his team for like the 5th consecutive transfer window and counting. We had very good chance 2 years ago to try him and decide to stay out. Crazy we thought this was gonna end up well.  Mhsc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And now, we are lumbered with him 😂 You don’t burn through spells at as many big teams by his age if you are any good. But yep, another one we shouldn’t have signed. Even the first time round on loan. Ludicrous. LAM09 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
