Nigel Posted August 19 VT Supporter Share Posted August 19 I don't agree with all this dodged a bullet talk, if the boss wanted him it's a real shame he couldn't get him. He will be a disaster at Chelsea however, but that doesn't change what could have happened under emery. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 I've not been this disappointed since we missed out on signing Benni McCarthy. The obese version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MachoFantastico Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 Finally! We can move on. Plus I heard Chelsea needed more players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villan95 Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 You know what earlier in the window I wanted him but I think part of it was the big name and reputation. Then after seeing Rogers playing the position he would occupy lately I definitely don't think we need him. We are looking good with all that pace and power in the final third and I don't think Felix particularly has either. He would have been a luxury player, a vanity signing. We need players that want to come here, that work hard on the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villanmac Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 I take some solace in Mendes being on Sawiris's shit list and Nas perhaps one day having the opportunity to tell him to his face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aston_Villan4 Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 (edited) Thank you! Too mercurial for that much money. If people thought Diaby was terrible compared to the transfer cost, they’d really lose their minds with Felix.

Spoony Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 Genuinely very happy he isn’t coming here. Not convinced at all he is what we need, he didn’t want to be here, he just had expensive flop written all over him.

Strog Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 Not what we needed and dodged a bullet for me. I mentioned recently that I spoke to a Portuguese national and he said Felix has the talent but not the mindset or work ethic. He should fit in well at the Chelsea horse and pony show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferguson1 Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 He’s an elite player and I trust Emery if he wanted him. However, I wouldn’t have wanted him coming in and stalling the development of Rogers, Duran or Ramsey perhaps? Our forward line is great, especially if we hold onto Duran in this window. I rather we put our funds into sorting any defensive issues this window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's fallen off and the risk was always that he might not get back, even with emery, glad it's not us who's taken that risk on 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
