2024/25 Charly Alcaraz

[Eggs]

….hopefully he’s away with his teammates on this mini-break, excellent timing for a new arrival.

 

[StHelensBlue]

I've been impressed with him since he's arrived. He has that 'something' about him. I hope he signs on a permanent deal.

 

[Verbal Kint]

Hes better than McCallister

For 15m it’s a no brainer .

15m doesn’t get you and average prem play these days and he is definitely good enough to be at least that.

Obrien 16m
Ngaiye 16m
Garner 15m
Niliyenko 17m
McNeil 16m
Brathwaite free
Tarks free
Gana 2m? ( might be wrong )
Tim 10m
Get Charly in for 15m


That’s not a bad bunch of players for 107m

Chamiti only 12m so hoping he can become a prem player too

To think of all the money we spent on crap when Noah arrived

Ngiaye, Mililenko and Brathwaite….three new fellas sneaked in after deadline day. fair play to the outgoing DoF

i posted in the doucoure thread that we might see more of him so we don’t have to activate the obligation clause on Alcaraz until we know a bit more about him

now I’m thinking we need to before either Flamengo ask for more money, or someone else swoops in

Nobody is going to swoop in in March while he’s still on loan here

And Flamengo can’t ask for more money because there’s a set fee in place. We would have to agree to let them change the conditions of the loan, and why on earth would we do that?

I mean like, he’s looked half decent in the couple of games he’s played, but are we all not getting a bit carried away here everyone?

After 2 years of watching Doucoure in the number 10 role, I’ll forgive people for getting carried away.

Lets be honest,while it's highly unlikely the club in the past has been known have rug pulled from underneath itself in regards to players.

Fernandes and Danjuma first time round even all the way back to Muller in the 90s, you'd like to think all that is a thing of the past but you can forgive Blues for being nervous ha.

They are not even remotely the same scenarios.

Such a cow you sometimes ha.

I dunno...im just not sure moyes is convinced on this guy.
I am. Im hoping he has that spark that can give us our own morgan gibbs-white.

If Moyes wasn’t convinced on him he’d be getting 10 minute run outs on the right wing. There’s no way he’d be starting games, even given the paucity of options. My reading is Moyes wasn’t sold on him then has seen him up close and been pleasantly surprised and now trusts him to play in his team.

 

[Blue Smoke]

He has 2 starts because dacoure wasnt available.
Against United moyes would have happily ran down the clock with dacoure but realised (too late) that dacoure's legs had gone and brought charlie on

Jimmy, only a couple of games but I think he looks better than half decent.
