But why put him on the bench if you clearly have no intention of playing him?! It’s just bizarre!

Seriously, WTF :lolol: I’m leaning towards the ‘their must be something in his contract’ trail of thought!

Amusing that the social media team are still using him for clout on the club platforms 🤣

With 8 games remaining and an inability to be match fit after weeks without a game, he’s going to need to do something extraordinary to be a success.

What has been doing for the last 3 weeks?! Ever week I am more and more staggered by how much money this has cost us.

Terrific. Marquee signing who’s meant to be better then anything we’ve got, can’t even play ten minutes when chasing the game before he might play 90 minutes 3 days later. Waste of money.

Any idea why he didn’t come on today? Full rest in the international break and still can’t get a sniff, looking like money well spent.

I disagree that he ever did play at that level before the hamstring injury. He was improving yes, but not March or Mitoma levels as a wide player. I agree he needs to seriously consider what his body is going to allow him to do in terms of his future position. If he’s not able to trust it, he...

He could work as a centre forward but probably not with his back to goal, he hasn’t mastered using his body against defenders yet. So what he was doing for Barca is what Mitoma did for us last year. Essentially either beat his man and cut inside to shoot/interplay, or go round the outside of a...

@Zeberdi I accept your point on his injury recovery, but taking this discussion on a bit, where do we play him for the remainder of the season? He looks nothing like the kind of winger RDZ likes to use and I assume he doesn’t particularly want to play there either, thus he drifts inside too...

Expectations related to how much money a player is costing a club is paramount to our business model though. Our only ‘big’ earners are players who contribute a massive amount to the club and can be relied upon to consistently deliver. If we’re not getting value for money out of someone, it is...

I’ve singled him out because he’s on ALOT more money than the rest of them. The expectations should be higher. The context of the loan fee and his wages is an important factor in this discussion, surely you can see that? FWIW, Buononatte has definitely shone more than him. Enciso has barely...

Yes, criticising a player means it’s a boooing :yawn: Maybe you could answer the question of what he did yesterday (bar one cross and a shot from distance) that made you think he’s worth all the money we’re spending on him? I’ve not seen anyone give any specifics. I’d love to be shown some...

What did he do bar one decent cross and a shot from 30 yards? I’m not saying the names you’ve mentioned were better, but I didn’t see Fati contribute anything much more meaningful than them.

He’s proved all of us who said he’s not a winger months ago correct, undoubtedly. But for the outrageous money we’re spending on him, I think it’s fair to expect him to take his man on. Ultimately, it looks like poor recruitment. At best, imbalanced recruitment, especially with RDZ as manager...

He put a good cross in when he first came on and had a pop shot from 30 yards in the 90th minute, what else? Drives me insane when he’s on the pitch as a winger but constantly drifts into an overcrowded middle. Eventually RDZ put Buononatte and Adingra out wide to stop it tonight. I genuinely...

Pound for pound, think he could be up there with the worst value for money signings we have ever made. 200k a week (or is it more?) and won’t even attempt to take a full back on. Disastrous amount of money for us to spend on a player who offers so little.

Couldn’t/wouldn’t even take it past a little ginger kid from Worthing in a one on one. How he earns 200k or whatever it is a week is mystifying.

There simply has to be more to come from him in terms of star quality. There’s no way he could’ve been surrounded by as much hype as he was (based on actually playing a decent amount of games for Barca), to turn in such average/decent performances. Surely he’s got a Mitoma/Pedro/Enciso style...

It’ll be interesting to see what RDZ does when Fati and Enciso are both fully fit.
