2025/26 Youssef Chermiti

[TheBlueBlitzer]

Ferguson,but they all fell asleep after the third telling of the story of him battering two burglars wearing only his flip flops.
Barry didn't believe it at all.

Haha so your saying we don't have a striking coach then yeah

 

[Osamabindiesel]

Because he wasn’t given the chance to develop here , which is the salient point .
He is a very good striker and the naysayers have been proven very wrong .

Keane was very bad here and probably would have continued to be bad here. I don't believe for a second that he is a premier league striker. I think he found his place in Italy and I am happy for him. As for Chermo, it looks like Moyes has basically told him work hard and earn minutes wherever you can get them because you are not getting the striker nod. If Chermo can provide energy/defensive minutes off the bench for the time being, I guess you take that for the moment.

Chermo at least looks pacy enough to hang on the wings which is good. Let him niche a role out.

Ah , the perpetual addiction to ‘pace ‘ along with homoerotic adulation of players who are ‘units’ . It’s almost like the English having invented the game have never been sure which game they wanted to play Rugby or Association, round or oval . Undecided we have habitually played a hybrid of both.
Honestly if you think he looked ‘ very bad ‘ here I despair . He didn’t convince entirely , but he was at a train wreck of a club , and his chances came few and far between for anyone to assess fairly .
What qualifies as a PL striker that a striker from Serie A cannot do , I wonder .
Whatever it is , it didn’t bother an average Italian team outclassing an England team with home advantage a few years ago .
But hey ho , you judged Kean to be poor and there he is scoring goals for fun and an international star.
I think your opinion was wrong in this case .
But we all call some wrong and some right we aren’t professionals so we can afford to be mistaken.

Look at Fernando Torres, he was scoring for fun at them lot, gets a big move to Chelsea and suddenly he's crap, it's not so much the league as the team setup

Maybe Silva's sacking did him no favours. But not even Ancelotti could get him going.

 

[Eggsyblueskin]

Have we got a striking coach yet

Here it is , same as last season I believe, a Neoplan Starliner .
I think it’s quite striking?

Keane is continuing to be bad you are right haha

It is an opinion dude. And you have an opinion. No need to bring out your pseudointellectual spiel and write a blog about how oh so wrong I am dude. Keane was very bad here because he always wanted the ball to feet. I do not think we could afford to spend time on a player that was not inclined to make runs. His playstyle did not fit the league (IMO). Grab a tissue. We disagree. Fair enough.

 

[Osamabindiesel]

He is in another league and doing well. Good for him. Is everyone intentionally being dense?

Keane has sadly resigned with us and continues to be in the league, Kean is doing well in Italy and I'd rather of kept him that use our other strikers at the time.

 

[Hinchcliffe's Corner]

Assumed the flurry of activity meant a loan must be in the works but nah, just the GOT Curmudgeon Society having a completely random pop.

6 pages already for a kid who's not gonna get game time, but now DCLs gone they've moved on to another target. They're like The Sisters in Shawshank.

It's not even blue. That strikes me as poor management. Sack the board.

Curmudgeons awakening?

My time has come!

…..according to The Bobble, ‘Chermiti has failed to impress in pre-season’. Sounds like the club are open to a permanent move, no idea who would take him.

I accept to having a contrary view to the vast majority on here but I’m not in the least surprised if Bobble’s report is accurate.

I am not a fan either eggs. If you are good enough you are old enough. I haven’t seen anything from him that makes me believe he will make it with us. We are generally light up front to and looks further away from a starting birth than ever. He is not second choice across any of the four attacking positions

 

[Bedfordblue]

Being linked with a loan to Rangers so big nose clearly remains a fan.
Got a feeling of last chance saloon if he goes (can only see that if there’s another striker available for us).
If he can stay fit and replicate Igamame’s form he may have a future with us, if he looks more like Egil Ostenstad then I expect it’s adios.

Sadly it was pretty clear from day 1 he was never making it here.
