If we pull this off it will be a real coup. Everton thought they had him in the bag and will be well pissed off. It'll be because of Cags.

The fact that Everton wanted him doesn’t inspire a lot of confidence.

 

[SilverFox]

This could just mean he is waiting for a flight. It doesn’t mean he has gone full Mahrez.

 

[ThaiSweetChilli]

I don't think he plays anything like Mahrez apart from cutting in from right hand side.

Mahrez is very unique in his skillset. The ball sticks to his feet. It's not just the odd stepover and running past defenders, he glides around them with so much finesse. He does 5 stepovers in a row, nutmegs, then he flicks it behind and cuts back. Mahrez makes the defender fall on his arse or in some cases myltiple defendeders fall on their arse. He doesn't try to run past them, he sneaks past them like the Pink Panther.

I don't think we'll ever find someone like him again. I think Benrahma is a similar option though not the same. But Ünder seems more like a Barnes/Gray hybrid type player. He runs past defenders fairly easily, has some skill and can take players on. I think he's faster than Mahrez too. He seems the type to knock the ball past you with space and run.

David Bell?

I’m a Bellend.

Under has the look of a Turkish Knockaert to him to me. young and international so worth a go, but has the whiff of second or third choice about it.

Lee Philpott!

Used to call him Pisspot

Maxy Gradel did alright for himself in the end, non?

 

[camberwell fox]

Under has has the whiff of second or third choice about it.

Are we talking sloppy seconds and thirds then?

 

[silly fox]

St Etienne have removed Fofana from their squad for their next game. Read into that what you will.

I see what you mean. Let hope not. He kind of has a poor man's Firminho vibe. I know i compared him to Barnes/Gray earlier but it really is difficult to tell from Youtube!

Now to check out his FIFA stats.....

He's gotta be coming. Surely. At the end of the day, nobody wants to have a player who doesn't want to play for them.

I think it was Rochdale in the cup. Fuelled by enthusiasm and alcohol I predicted at least 6 goals. Did Gee and Joachim warm up at the same time. I remember a mass chant of 'Julian, Julian.' Some lone voice shouted Phil. He turned and said 'Thank you very much.' It may not have happened, the hangover usually did.

Well aparently it's pronounced "CHEN-GEEZ-OOND-AIR"

He seems quite scrappy.

 

[jb5000]

Excellent.

Should have the whole of the Kop reading up on the Mongol invasions & early medieval Europe looking for inspiration for a song.

Should have a right belter in place by the time crowds are allowed back.

Let's hope we don't draw Vienna in Europe then...

Its too hard to judge on one game. Even Musa banged two in against Barcelona.

Hopefully our scouts know what they are doing.
