Finn balor Posted August 7, 2019 Report Share Posted August 7, 2019 He’s a bit of a meh signing. He won’t be a starter I wouldn’t have thought over Bernie so why bother? I’d rather have bowler on the bench and save the dough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe an opportunity for one of the kids to get a chance? Not ideal but could be worse. Hoping it’s Keane and Holgate as the starting pair though I doubt it. Definitely not Rojo though, deal fell through at the last minute (again) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newty82 Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 When I seen him last year, he looked good. It was limited appearances though. Could be a very astute signing. It's a funny one. I can't help but feel we've left things late and are gonna get our pants pulled down no matter what. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markjazzbassist Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 35m is a joke for this guy. he's worse than walcott and walcott cost us 20m. not happy with this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walcott is a pace merchant who has used his speed to beat players his entire career. I'm not a fan of Iwobi per se, but he definitely has more technique than Walcott.

I think they all recognize his talent but he apparently lacks some end product. Quite a few think he could be a good #10. He definitely will add creative flair. This will come down to whether that will ultimately result in production. Not there yet but at 25 or 26 who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SpartyBlue Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 Oh man, maybe he will be the polarizing figure we lack with the departure of Gana. Great job by Brands to get someone in for that vital role immediately. Bailey 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew someone was going to say that. I’ll rephrase, he was the only one I was worried about when they played at Goodison. Came on and gave us something to actually worry about for 20mins. £40m according to the BBC. Bit steep... Wiggytop and Newty82 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicagoblue Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 He's hit and miss from what I've seen, but that's not atypical for wingers. Could say the same about any of our wingers. It's a position where you need to have options so you can insert whoever is hot at moment. 35 I think will be the upfront price, and that's not absurd in this market. It's the 8m of 5 years ago. Not sure about his wages though, just hope he's not put at the top of the pile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn balor Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 Is disappointing if we’ve had all summer to buy the right player and he is what we end up with. The balance of the squad needed a left footer so it’s left me confused. I haven’t seen a lot of him so I’ll be happy to be proved wrong markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
