Confirmed Signing Thierno Barry

[trueblue84]

To the tune of volare:


Thierno,
Oh, oh,
Thierno,
Oh, oh,
He shoots, he scores in the goal,
He's got an 11 inch pole.

I think if this was going to be announced today, it will be delayed after the sad news of Jota and his brother. Maybe Monday we might get the announcement.

Thought he was on holiday in Miami currently? Imagine he won’t be signing on the dotted line until he gets back.

 

[Milkman]

They tried to sign up Calvert-Lewin
I said Thier-no-no

 

[Toffeepot]

Then he should make that clear, rather than give vague answers that could never come back to bite him, to make it look like he has the inside scoop

Seems like a nice fella and proper blue but he defo doesn't help himself with the thickos who hang on his every word

I think he is making it clear by his vague answers no? He's saying he isn't sure, which is an honest take imo

One of the most important decisions apart from whether he gets the number 9 is as a fan base how are we pronouncing his name.

I believe the actual pronunciation of his surname is a very saucey Gallic sounding Baree with an elongated ee sound at the end.

We going with that or a Scouse Terry Barry

So a bit like Gary from Only Fools and Horses but with a B instead?

i instantly feel better about him if he is Bar-ee as opposed to Barry

I went down the rabbit hole and watched his highlights last night. One thing that stands out is his ability to head the ball at his age. Also, I think for someone who is 6'5", he has quick feet and good awareness of what's around him, all of which allows him to turn defenders.

He couldn't have a worse name for a strong scouse accent - I still shudder about the way some kopites pronounced Mascherano.

Wouldn't matter where I was on holiday if someone was offering me a job with those kind of wages I'd be on the first plane home. Or maybe that's just me

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

I think with him and Beto as our strikers next season may be key we play Armstrong and Garner who both have shown an eye for that pass.
Also we may have an even higher frustration level with VAR.

 

[GoldenToffee]

Surely need to be getting a speed merchant striker in too if the rest of the strikers in the squad are averaging 6 foot 5. Not a whole lot of variety between Barry, Cherms and Beto.

 

[bullybeef]

Cherms is way off what’s required.
A very poor signing.

Barely seen the lad play. Christ.

My ‘hot take’, as I believe these are called , is that we’ll look at wingers who can fill in up front if needed? A Richy type would be nice.
