Yann M'vila - target or not?


I think you have totally miss remembered that season, we were utter shite till Xmas, so aye he was mint from then onwards.

And by the fact you ignored my question I can only assume you have not seen him play for 7 years

apart from that, another great post marra!


He wasnt great all 38 games no, have you just forgotten the start of that season happened like?

You haven't seen him play for years, he isn't signing, move on.

Some poster's obsession with singning players just because the once played for us is stupid

He didn't start the season as he wasn't available but his best form in popular opinion was prior to January, then you have folk who say he dropped off afterwards, he didn't, role just changed.

He has very specific attributes that make him perfect for our situation, the fact he played for us make it barely possible that he may or may not be obtainable.

I did like him aye , long time ago tho
 
You can't beat this place man 😅 we have a fantastic young dynamic team and a young ambitious owner who has a long term plan to match. And what do fans want ex loanee's from yesteryear 🤣🤣🤣

Whilst your smilies do make a compelling point i think you may be missing how yann could compliment said long term plan.

Granted he was on good form for half a season when he was here, however that was a long time ago and the club has massively changed since then.. BTW When was the last time you watched him over a period of time marra ?
 
Loved him , still boils my piss we never signed him . Is he as good as i remember and still fit , might be worth a punt on the cheap but i wouldnt spunk the budget and i have a slight Defoe hangover .

Not a Defoe, not an Evans, makes a major difference to the first 11.

If he can still put out what he had got then definitely. Theres also the small matter he wasnt exactly stable before his stint with us , was walking round Russia with an axe wasnt he? Has he been a model pro since?
Im not knocking the lad at all he was terrific for us and if hes solid state would do a great job and sort unfinished business for himself and fans . I dont know whether speakman would see him as good odds though and if hes decent money there would be many others about

Honestly, I normally rely upon hundreds of others watching players and then that data being processed through algorithms, far from perfect but usually pretty good. Says he's still amazing and sense check, checks out, as it were. Plus, its Yann.
 
I used to love this kind of thing, but after Defoe I am in the camp of never go back

If it helps, I knew that was a terrible idea. You should never buy someone to appease fans, this isn't that, he has a very specific set of attributes that fit what we require perfectly. Just so happens we have an ace in that he used to love us.

Agree, just said the same on the Jonny Evans thread.Its as if people enjoy the warm comfort of no expectations and drift back to old times.

I honestly believe some people think that players don't age, or they are like robots. I wonder what happened to that Jermain Defoe Surfer flag 🤔
