Was Saul being sarcastic ?? Lol

Saul said he was treated really well while at Chelsea. It didn't work out for him but he was given his chances to play.

My verdict on the Felix transfer.

It's not good, it's necessary.

We have too many injuries to cope.

Adding him certainly won't takes us backwards (unless he takes away time from players like DDF)., and he won't hang around if he's a dud.

Yeah I even noticed on Twitter a while ago Saul posted a pic of him watching a Chelsea game and was cheering the team on so I'm guessing he's genuinely glad of having had that experience even if it didn't work out for him on the pitch.

Always seemed a likeable bloke too, he was just a bit shit at playing football nowadays.

Ofc its needed. People who say otherwise are delusional. Broja, Pulisic, Sterling injured, Ziyech, Havertz, Mount shit af, Felix ist probably our best forward rn and thats before he played a single minute. He just cant be worse than the named.

silly boy, stupid sending off

As I said, guaranteed to fail here. Did not think it would become obvious this easy. it is not even bc he is not good enough. He clearly is a baller and technically a notch above Kai and Mount but just as Atletico we are not capable to get the ball into the final third consistently enough for him to make a difference.

Economically the whole deal looks even more ridiculous now he sits out 15% of his 23m deal anyway.

Had really good game. Red was unlucky but even that shows his willingness to fight which you cannot say about others. 

[Pizy 18,405]

Showed more class in that hour or whatever than any of our attackers have shown all season. And now he gets a month off when we need him most. Because of course that would happen to Chelsea this season.

[OneMoSalah 8,783]

Some nice touches in the game but an absolute brainfart moment.

I mean honestly, what was he thinking? I get trying to win the ball back but jesus christ, you don’t need to be that clever to know that you cannot tackle like that in any European league.

Now he has 3 PL games to sit out and we’re back to square 1.

Positive surprise. Putting on good game, actually looking like a breath of fresh air, topping off with straight red… Introduced himself kool-aid style.

In a stale and depressed team, entering and taking the door with you seems like a good thing. And was it really a straight red? He got late and unlucky.

The guys played in Portugal, Spain and all over internationally, he knows its a red card as soon as he makes the challenge late.

Even Stevie Wonder would of seen that as a red card. I mean look how high he was and the force. Unlucky? I am beginning to worry for some of you.

Unlucky, as he was late af. I've seen some brutal tackles, however this one was one of the slowest, uninspired and pointless I've seen in a long time and it's unlucky to get red in such a dumb situation. 

[dimmas 126]

Is it just me or our attack with him become much more lively? And some better fluidity on our forward movement as well

Or is it fulham just didn't using low block defence
