Enner Valencia

[Jreverton1]

i get what you are saying but sometimes players just fit well at a club, look at pienaar at us then spuds.

Can't argue with that.

As I've said before I was against him at the start but he's won me over. He has zip and pace to his game. He's skilful and knows where the goal is . He seems settled in the squad now and if he's happy to stay and we can negotiate a more realistic price , I'd be happy to see him here next season.

 

[arch stanton]

He has pace, has drive going forward and his control of the ball when he goes forward isn't always the best but when it bobbles around when he's running through/past a player t pace, that creates uncertainty in the defence, that is good, makes stuff happen and gets people thinking. I like him but squad player and price got to be good. Would like more/better strikers in addition too

 

[dubfade]

He seems like the kind of player that is just really awkward to play against. The way he uses his body to get between the defender and the ball etc.

Having said that, I would be against us spending 15 million to keep him. A bit steep for me, that.

 

[Jozzy]

He's surprised me and to the standard we've played at this season he's been good. A really positive option to come off the bench and make a difference.

However I want and expect us to take that next step in the next step and to do that we need to be bringing in better players than Valencia. Wouldn't even come close to getting a game in any of the sides above us on the table.

Give back to west ham and sign someone better

Our shape was much better after he came on though

People would have said the same about Moses at Chelsea last season, now he's a regular. Every team have these type of players that are not big names but fit in the team well. If we could get him for 10 million I'd keep him as he's a useful squad player.

 

[rhino_83]

Would definitely take him for 7-8m in the summer if he's happy to play second fiddle. We need to pack the squad out aswell as improve the first team if we're gonna compete on all fronts next year

Yep if we can get him for basically whatever we can offload naisse for he is more then capible of squad filler rather then kone and naisse

 

[GwladysBlue]

I hope we don't sign him on a permanent deal.

He's a tidy little player, but we need to be after better if we're serious about wanting to be a Champions League club.

 

[Canuck Darryl]

He's got pace and a goal or two in him. With Europe looming on the horizon for next season, he would be handy coming off the bench ( or starting if Rom bugs out ).

 

[bluejohn66]

A pre Mosh type of signing, we should and can do much better.

 

[Dutch Toffee]

A pre Mosh type of signing, we should and can do much better.

Agree there, he'd be a Lennon type of signing. Did well originally but not good enough for the level we aim to be at. Will probably a forgotten man in two years time.

 

[Paulie]

I like him. 15m a little bit too much but for 8m I'd take him. Surprised he hasn't been used more like against United I think we would have seen the game out if he came on.

 

[Eggs]

...he's not getting much game time so if we are bringing more players in the chances are that he will slip even further down the queue. I suppose much depends on the Lukaku situation.

 

[bicycleheader]

He's had a couple of good games but Jesus I'd rather buy someone better to play second fiddle

Heard Sergio is on his way out

Itll be the third window in a row where the fans are expecting big things. Signing Valencia would cause heartattacks I think.
