Morgan Schneiderlin

[Mountfield1985]

Bile filled bitterness, that.

Come on mate, it is quite funny. It's the kopites who can't laugh at themselves!

 

[zzr45]

How can that be seen as hostile or my not having legitimate concerns?

Because that's your gimmick. Hostile poster with concerns based in a universe other than this. The trollyverse perhaps.

 

[CairnsToffee]

I'm certainly not down with his sickness...

He will never be Immortalized either, unlike #campsaido

 

[John Osters Love Child]

he's failed his medical due to extreme exhaustion but 9 medicals in 4 days will do that to you.

Hahaha

 

[ToffeeTim]

You're only as good as your last medical.

I dont know what the commotion is here. Here's what I think (and have STATED so far) about Schneiderlin:

He has good quality and will add something to the CM
...however...
We've been mugged off by United on the fee
He wont bring us a sell on fee worthy of the name
We needed positions further up the pitch filled before this position
In all likelihood the fee will come from a major sale in the summer.

How can that be seen as hostile or my not having legitimate concerns?

I wouldn't say we have been mugged off at all I would say a very fair price for a very good player in his prime years
Sell on fee is irrelevant its what he does when he is on the pitch, we need to focus on the here and now! If we sell him for 5m in 3-4 years but he helps us achieve consistent European football with a trophy as well then its money well spent.
The major sale in the summer will be Lukaku but that seems inevitable regardless how much we spend now. That will be more with Lukaku wanting away rather us wanting/needing to sell him.

 

[BlueShark]

Hopefully he passes his 7th medical.

I was thinking that, what is it, best of 9 or something?

 

[davek]

Totally different type of player and you know it.

"Man will say ANYTHING to win a conversation"

Ha Ha. Well it wasn't my comparison mate. It was YOURS. Remember?

Lol.

I'd quite like to hear the Sound of Silence from him though.

No mate, it isn't irrelevant at all. You've just seen one of the richest clubs in the world haggle with Everton to get their cash back off Schneiderlin. That is how football operates...and that's certainly how it operates for a club like ours.

Lukaku will go to cover these purchases. Something you seem to accept, tbf,

Lol.

Only compared as being overlooked by a manager and left on the bench and you know it.

Once again,says anything to win an argument.

So if anyone has concerns about a signing and doesn't go all happy clappy that's a gimmick?

Ok.

No, you compared it because they were the same fee...which of course only served to underline my point that we did not get that type of quality you expect off a £22M signing.

Ok mate. You win it. Yours is the last word.

*sigh*
