Scouting talk

I love watching Connor Gallagher play. The kids motor is non stop, and is constantly getting better. He'd be great business. Prem proven, young, and much cheaper than Bellingham.

I agree but he's on loan at Palace from Chelsea so I doubt they let go of him (at least not easily).

Looks a real player.

He does -shame he will prob won’t be let go by Chelsea

Yea and definitely not to us I'd say.

Origi and Chamberlain out and Bowen and Bissouma in?

I know it's not the transfer thread but that has been on my mind.

Bowen and Bissouma in?

Raphinha and Bissouma for me. 2 players that would be perfect for us IMO.

Isn’t Bissouma on bail for sexual assault?

Isn’t Bissouma on bail for sexual assault?

I don’t know, not been following it. But the way I see it is that if there was anything in the allegations then he’d be where Benjamin Mendy is, or at the very least suspended by the club.

Bowen is awesome. Does a lot of Bobby work that flies under the radar to most. One of my favorite players to watch this season. Would love to get him

Sterling for 45 million

Would you?

Sterling for 45 million

Would you?

No. He wants to leave City because of a lack of game time, he won’t be guaranteed anymore game time with us because of Salah and Mane so it’s probably a non starter in that regard.

He’s also regressed as a player over the last 18months.

Leaving aside all the technicalities would you be happy for us to resign him weighing up his ability v leaving us

Don’t tend to look at the reasons why he left us. Don’t forget he was a youngster at the time and got heavily misled by a greedy agent. It’s no excuse but he wasn’t the first player in that situation and won’t be the last and it certainly didn’t help matters.
BR also wasn't the right manager for him, there was clearly a clash of personality between the two and I think he even said if Klopp had taken over sooner then he’d have stayed?

I just generally don’t think Sterling is right for us anymore, a few years ago, his ability wasn’t far off up there with the best but he’s massively regressed in the last 18months. IMO there are better options out there with far less baggage - such as Raphinha.

For me the ultimate player for our front line is Federico Chiesa.

Even above the likes of Haaland.

Sterling for 45 million

Would you?

Not a chance

Sterling for 45 million

Would you?

Probably. But there would be some conditions first. He would have to write a public apology letter, injure Ruban Dias, and promise to never run like Chickensarus-Rex again.

Bissouma
Bowen
Toney
Tielmans
Troussard

5 players that are premier league experienced, wouldn’t cost a fortune, have a high ceiling for their potential, would be excellent additions to the squad, give options, work hard and are technically excellent.

We're not Aston Villa. Need to aim a bit higher than Troussard and Toney ffs.

Ey? How is Ivan Toney an experienced Premier League Player? He's made 12 appearances in the division!

Bissouma and Tielemans are the only ones on that list I'd take. But saying that, given the performances from Tielemans this season, probably just Bissouma.

Tielmens is quality I just think Leicester are defeated. They've spunked top 4 twice in two years. Maybe they've lost some hope in Brendan?

Twisted my words.
I said he is “premier league experienced”….He is.
Is he an “experienced premier league player” after 12 games? No. No he isn’t and that isn’t what I said.

Now back to my point. I do believe he would be an excellent addition to the squad and would give us alternate attacking options.

Haven’t twisted anything. In your own words “Premier League experienced”. If you’re basing that on him having experienced life in the Premier League to any extent then you can make that case for hundreds of players.

Either way, it was a crap shout by you.

Is it any wonder that many of the original folk who used to regularly post to this site have stopped or are far less frequent?
It’s totally ok to disagree but do so with little intelligence of what someone actually wrote and a a lot more respect for a fellow Red.
Oh well. Shame as this site used to be really fun and civil.
