Alan miles off as per usual
Got to be one of the least informed football reporters out there these days.
Probs has a little black book of phone numbers he rings up for gossip and realises they're either all dead or have been retired 10 years.

Is clear to me that most negative feelings towards him have very little to do with his ability with a football.
Always passed the eye test for me, genuinely exciting young player with a lot of potential. Have wanted him since first seeing him play for Leeds.

Saha was probably the most talented out of all of them mentioned above.
As I said, I supported them all fully at the time they played for us, they all had their moments, for some reason I never really took to Saha, but he was a very good player for us.

In fairness, it seems like a similar case to how many of us seen Gordon here. Academy stuff aside, it's probably clear that Gordon in his last bit here had a huge ego and didn't want to be here, therefore fans (justifiably) hated him, especially since his return was poor too. On the flip side, then Newcastle got a player that improved under them, as there wasn't the built-in knowledge of him being a knob. I thought Gordon was crap, the money was unreal and that he's still overrated, but I do admit he's clearly miles better for Newcastle than he was for us in his final year.
With Gnonto it's probably the same, sick of Leeds and can't wait to be away but not necessarily any indication on how he'd be with us, other than a player that would likely have his head turned by a bigger offer, which is 90% of players these days.
Besides all that, yer man using "Google, www or 'stats'" has killed me there, it's 2024 ffs, who calls it www, you're on an internet forum, it's called the internet.

Would like us to sign this lid
The judgement of forwards is overweighted towards goals and assists imho. Anyone who's played to a half decent level understands that this is a crude metric for players in poor teams. Need good productive players around you and good harmony if good play is to be rewarded with genuine attacking output. Think people have lost sight of the fact that he's been playing in a championship level side for several years.
As others have said, passes the eye test for me. Good technique, makes good decisions, quick feet often gets his team out of trouble or creates opportunities to attack.
