Transfer Rumour Ishak Belfodil

[bugsy]

Got to be new Mikael Madar !!

Signing a random Algerian playing below our level for a cheap price? Fume fume fume fume fume.

Who is the reigning player of the year in this country btw? Where was he born? Did he cost 59 million? Did he come from a lower standard league?

Just asking for a friend.

 

[AaronTheBlue]

Give him a chance

 

[ianefc]

Do you actually care about his opinion?

Yep, the forum needs its debating points.

 

[upthetoffees]

No they never picked him in Spain on mid season training so presuming he must have dual nationality with France

I read that he's been called up to the Algerian team but was a French youth international. I guess if it was a friendly he could still have the option.

Well I've been following this fella closely for the last 27 minutes and he's got long hair sometimes but other times he does not.

I don't get people kicking off because they've never heard of him. Had you heard of many of Walsh's signings at us or Leicester before he signed them? I think people forget that this is his job, imagine people kicking off because they'd never heard of a particular burger flipping technique or sales strategy you employ in your own jobs. Let the man do his job and judge him once they've played a more then a few games eh

I don't get why so many people on here can already be so negative without having seen the lad play.
I have seen him play a couple of games (the entire match) and think he will do great for us.

I'm not totally negative on him and like you say i haven't even seen him play but the Belgian league is not the highest standard in the world and better players have been shown up once they have got here. Just seems a bit of a punt to me when we could do with something top quality who knows the league now. God forbid anything happens to Lukaku in the meantime.

If he is another Payet or Mahrez happy days! I'm getting splinters on the fence on this one, just seems like a lot of money for him.

...this probably says it all; nobody really knows how this will work out;

His name looks like an anagram.

Sigurdsson = £25M. Then close the chequebook until the summer.

That would have been the sensible route.

Koeman is sniffing paraffin rags I think.

This team needs a keeper, centreback, creative midfielder, and a backup striker as a minimum, and that's if Koeman is happy with Mirallas Deulofeu Lennon Lookman and Bolasie as wide options (he's probably not). We may be over paying but the squad is a mess. Lukaku and Gueye are our only players of top 6 quality on current form.

Why Koeman can't get a tune out of Del and Barkley I don't know.

Neither has sung in tune since 13/14 season. Same with most of the squad. Maybe they're just not as good as we thought.

Badly Niasse

 

[LABlue2]

This fella looks awful, not gonna lie based on my 20 seconds spent on his Wikipedia page

Perhaps, but both have undeniable talent. They're not the hardest workers granted but other managers seem to find systems to suit 'lazy' attacking players like Hazard Ozil etc. There's no better site than seeing Ross Del and Rom on the counter tearing at the opposition defence. We can't seem to find a system that suits them though.
