Confirmed Signing Anwar El Ghazi

[Noisy noise annoys]

Our owner is an idiot tbf

Yes, but you are insinuating that 5 or 6 managers were happy to have Mosh pick players for them and NOT ONE of them have come out afterwards and mentioned it despite their poor form and eventual sacking??!! Surely one of them would have used it as a good reason for their demise if it was true?!?!

I just cannot see it myself, just too fantastical

 

[Noisy noise annoys]

i don't really buy into this is a Moshiri signing.
besides i also do not agree we dont need another winger. look at the injuries we have had, we wish we had someone better than Wobi to bring on. On a loan it is a low risk hopefully he can as consistent as Gray / Townsend

YEP

Why would Moshiri try to force an unwanted player onto the manager and use up more of our scarce resources and possibly annoy the manager.
If we sign El Ghazi it will be because the manager wants him.

He could try and force him out instead of sacking by saying we'll choose the players.

I'm not saying that is true but that would be a reason to do that.

 

[Misa]

Don't really see any downside. 6 months loan. No obligation to buy. He's probably taking Iwobi's place so he can't really be much worse.

 

[johnjoeefc]

Just because this fella is slightly better than Iwobi then it doesn’t warrant us to sign him ffs!

I could pull 10 people out the Park End who would be more effective than Iwobi

There's at least 15 in the gwladys

 

[OzyToffee]

6 month loan with an option, hopefully little money involved and keeps Iwobi on the bench if he is needed so fine. Not doing cartwheels but sure fine.

I truly believe there is mate and I’m not joking

“Then last May the Netherlands international scored a winner at Goodison Park, curling an unstoppable shot from the edge of the penalty area and past Jordan Pickford.

This goal was the exception rather than the rule, though. With Aston Villa and previous club Lille, El Ghazi has taken 105 top-flight shots from outside the box and this is the only one which found the net (per Understat)”.

If you didn’t laugh you’d cry

At least we know he can score, then. ?

Just read what that villa fan wrote a few pages back. Sounds like we have just resigned Aiden Mcgeady.

He hasnt played international football for nearly 7 years.

We could just sell Iwobi instead....that would keep him off our bench..wouldn't it?

 

[thorney33]

Upgrade for the bench on a short term loan. Good business. Nothing lost if he doesn’t perform, but good incentive for him to do so.

It’s not the lads fault that he’s joining from the same outfit Digne is leaving for. Welcome (foster) home lad.

 

[Dykovski200]

Has to be better than the crab so ok for 6 month loan.

Yeah its good business after the crazy mess we have made over the last 6 years, we need deals like this.

He is a winger we have enough and do not need another taking up space on the bench, and heaven forbid it went ahead with an option.

If this happens boy we are really hitting the lows.
