2017/18 Gylfi Sigurdsson

[MikeH72]

That, and our ridiculous obsession with him when we really should have been focusing on signing a striker.

And a centre back and left back. That absurd 6 week pursuit of him cost us the 3 most important positions we needed to strengthen.

It was an absolutelying pathetic transfer window that put us back years!

 

[riddick]

With the benefit of hindsight?

I was saying it was pointless at the time as well.

Then why is Bolasie the only player we have that seems capable of scoring a goal in recent weeks?

Does that make him good?

Him who?

Him who?

Bolasie

 

[marsh]

Love him

Bolasie

Not sure what it says to be honest. A league one standard player (apparently) who despite a tactically inept manager somehow has managed to be our only goal threat in recent weeks.

Tosun is getting a pass over tactics. Walcott is getting a pass over tactics.

But Bolasie commits crimes against football and Gylfi is crap.

You mean like Romelu Lukaku who played in this team and managed to score a shed load of goals.

Can’t remember Lukaku playing for us this season.

Can’t remember Lukaku playing for us this season.

But you can remember him playing with crap players yet still banging goals in????

 

[MikeH72]

Can’t remember Lukaku playing for us this season.

Lukaku dragged us singlehandedly to 7th. So the myth of good players needing to be surrounded by other good players in order to shine is nonsense.

We were a far better team last year than this year. It wasn’t all about Lukaku.

But it mostly was because, yenno, he scored all those goals that helped us win those games.

Which we haven't done this season.

 

[nsno-chris]

Is that do with the 24 goals scored by trampoline shins by any chance.

Proving my point here mate, good players stand ahead the mediocre and make the difference...like scoring 24 goals
