CONFIRMED Jordan Ayew

[MobileBlade]

What list is that? It seems to be a mix of last season and this season’s Championship.

It doesn’t seem age is a problem when our average is not really much different to Coventry and Hull (Ipswich aren’t listed so don’t know how we compare to the other promoted team.)

Yeah. Couple of errors in it actually. Ages correct. Couple of clubs not.

 

[The Crab]

So we’ve signed a player who is going to be away for a month?

 

[metalblade]

Are we trying to just keep Leicester City afloat? Cannon £10m donation, Choudhury saves em £50k per week now we sign this bag-o-shite Ayew to make them feel at home. Shame we couldn't have spunked £8m on Souter too.

 

[Kenilworth]

This one!

Dog

 

[Kenilworth]

Grbic has gone, he’s in Bulgaria. It was just that understated hardly anyone realised!

Someone dropped a bollock, then

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

He's our new number 10

 

[Kenilworth]

Nils doesn't count

Innumerate as well as bobbar.
Interesting.

 

[ChefYouKnighted1889]

Can he play RB

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

Can he play RB

Probably as well as Choudhury - seriously

ON FRIDAY ......9/11.

Just read that. Like a retirement home

 

[Tazzy]

Could be the signing that fires us out of the bottom 3 later in the season

 

[blade too long]

Well another 40 year old ex fox has joined Burnley...Vardy is hardly an exciting prospect at his age

 

[Valley Blade]

I don't watch football other than United and very rarely England.

So if he's a striker he's shit at scoring goals, and if he's a winger he's shit at setting them up. What does he actually bring to the table? Other than the fact he looks a bit of a dirty bastard

You admit you don't watch football other than United, so how can you form an opinion of your own? Ayew was a good player in his prime, he may not be now, but at least give him a chance and judge him with your own eyes.

I used to watch a lot of football before it became an absolute farce, and one thing has never changed, a good striker score goals

Oh no he can, just steadfast refuses

 

[Ron_Justice]

Suspect he's been brought in to specifically do the things Cannon can't. Receive the ball with his back to goal and lay off passes, out muscle defenders and hold a high line. I'm expecting nothing more than a player than knows where to be, at the right time, receive the ball and give it to a more agile*, skilful players rushing onto the ball.

*yes, I know.

 

[Ron_Justice]

No doubt 'forced' to go on loan!

He wasn't exactly forcing his way into the match day squads was he? The lads been treated like shit, as was Cáceres this time last year, but he's clearly not good enough. The recruitment team have a lot of soul searching to do in their retirement.

 

[Rudders]

He’s been absolute garbage for many years pal. This is not the hill you want to die on

 

[Rufus Smalls]

Won the race

It’s the one Ben Johnson was also in.

 

[harrry1990s]

McGrath, McCall, Bamford, just saying.

Are we re-signing McCall? He’d probably do a job, to be fair. What a player.

 

[harrry1990s]

If it was 2019, this team would be pretty good in the championship - although a few of them would be struggling with the step up from Under 13s football.

 

[HackeyBlade]

I just think some have a different definition of good player to others. His stats are shite, one season playing above his usual level does not make him a good player, it means he had a purple patch. But some people choose some very strange hills to die on

He might have been, I really don't know. I'm not going to have an opinion on him at this moment in time, until I've seen him for United.

 

[Nick Jansky]

We knew O’Hare was leaving but still decided to sign a DM that we’re playing at RB AKA Choudhury. We clearly needed to use that money on an attacking player.

I’ve no sympathy for Wilder, he’s as much to blame for this shit show as the owners.

We need to sign someone who can pretend to be a RB because it looks as if we might have fucked up by signing Doherty.

 

[Ron_Justice]

If it was 2019, this team would be pretty good in the championship - although a few of them would be struggling with the step up from Under 13s football.

I often refer to the Covid Years as The Blip - a fair chunk of time, in our collective memory, is condensed down to a few fleeting points of difference. Maybe CW is perceiving the time since then and now in much the same way.

The recruitment log demands that focus can only ever be in two places.

Clough chose Blackpool and Scotland.

Wilder has chosen Leicester and Leeds.

 

[Ned the Donkey]

I must admit I was more excited when we didn't know who it was.

 

[uTurn]

Been out of the loop today so I've only just caught up with our latest foray into the free market. Why are we turning Bramall Lane into a fucking retirement village?

 

[Matlock Blade]

I understand the concerns about Ayew. However, now he has signed we should support him and hope he surprises us in a positive way.

 

[SB_90]
