End product was there today, He got many goals and many assists today, fair play Kudus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't have your cake and eat it Ollie Watkins is 29 in December so if this was football manager he'd be sent the bomb squad and offered to every team in Europe in the next window!! In all seriousness, if we can develop Duran and he stops being an idiot he would be the perfect successor to Watkins when that time does come, or at least we'd be able to sell him for a big fee so we can bring in another top quality forward.

HeyAnty Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 36 minutes ago, Villan_of_oz said: Jesus and Alvarez had earned their stripes, Duran hasn't. I get your point but the examples you are using are not helping your argument. Felix had played 30 or something games in Portugal when he went for 130m euro. I wouldn’t be so quick to sell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beasley14 Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 Perfect impact sub! Not sure how good Fullkrug will be for them, 31 and new to Prem is a big ask! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was the plan all along. Months of psychological warfare culminating in three points at the London Stadium. Can’t believe I called this (irons aside). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Pongo Waring Posted August 17 Popular Post Share Posted August 17 (edited) At his current rate of 3.21 goals per 90mins this season, he's on course to score 122 PL goals this season. Edited August 17 by Pongo Waring 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 1 hour ago, Villan_of_oz said: Yes but my point is he hasn't proven anything yet and his impatience will probably hurt him more than us if he leaves. He scored huge goals last season. Some to get our season started Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M_Afro Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 I admit that I have always liked Jhon. He is an unreal talent in my eyes. I accept that he has some growing up to do but the ability is there. I thought he looked like he had improved massively today. Sometimes, young players can develop a huge amount in between seasons and he really looks like that could have happened to him. Our subs were incredible today and maybe they were the difference in the end. He is so difficult to defend against. He could really fly this season. Let’s hope he does so with us. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWARLEY2 Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 You compare him to when he came to us and there is literally nothing the same . He now times runs. Doesn't go down blind alleys. Passes at the right time. Doesn't smash the ball on sight. A young player who is gradually becoming better. He wasn't a wonder kid. Just a raw player with physical attributes. In many ways it's the same situation as Gabby as a youngster. Gabby had the raw pace. Duran has the striking power . You then build the rest of their game up to a higher level which allows their main skill to flourish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I so like him but tbh we created some great chances today, he took his goal well but if he wants to go and £40m I'd offered I think he's going to go. Samu Omorodion is avaliable, seems a decent player and £40m would probably get him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
