Speculation The hysterical and annoying, but traditional, totally unfounded summer 2022 rumours thread

[bocadillo]

With a full summer break, we could have the original Tielemans back and not last seasons.

Naah. His mind will be elsewhere even more than it has been this season. He is just not committed to our cause any longer.

He's got to go.

The Tielemans we've seen this year we'd be lucky to get 25p back....

He's had the same goals and assists as 20-21.

Factual shite, ruining things.

Welll...Soumare is done for.

Any Turkish suitors available?

Two awful bits of business. Guess this suits that The Thick Of It quote…

If you’re sacked after six months, looks like you ****ed up. Sacked after a week, looks like we ****ed up.

Shame about Soumare. Very highly rated before he came here.

Personally I'd rather see him given longer or a loan move before we sell him off, presumably at a considerable loss.

Never let facts get in the way of a good roasting.

What are the stats on goals he’s been directly responsible for us concerning? He’s been shit this season. Anyone with functioning eyesight knows that.

Pair of absolute duffers from day one

Be amazed if we can offload them

Loans to Turkey or something until we let them eventually leave on a free. No one is going to pay for Soumare.

He'll be highly sought after in France because he's a very capable player.

The problem will be getting a decent fee when almost everyone in France is skint.

It's an exceptionally poor reflection of Congerton that we signed someone utterly unprepared to adapt to the PL. He is clearly psychologically and physically immature.

Not the players fault at all. This is all on poor background work.

I'm sure I've read he's had some personal problems since being here so maybe we are just allowing him to move back for his sake.

Agree it's a shame to see him move on so soon though.

But a lot of this is probably made up bollocks though isn't it?

The truer story is more likely that he ticked all those boxes but since coming here has perhaps, unexpectedly, suffered from poor mental health due to any number of factors.

To say he isn't prepared to adapt or is 'immature' in someway is totally unfounded and impossible to conclude.

Can we have a thread for 'Completely unfounded, made up rumours about players and their personal lives'? All this kind of stuff could go in there.

Completely disagree. Will still be highly regarded in some quarters. Just depends on how much his "personal issues" are a factor.

Getting a bit of déjà vu from all the people saying Bertrand would be great if only he didn't catch covid...

Embarrassing

 

[homer]

Getting a bit of déjà vu from all the people saying Bertrand would be great if only he wasn’t completely and utterly shit...

They’ve got a point

Probably more about how much potential buyers think the personal issues have had an impact on his ability and for how long. If he genuinely has problems then I feel for the kid, obvs. It's a risk for anyone to spend on him putting his performances for us down to what are rumours...he could actually just/also be a bit shit.
