Poveda


Ruysn- didn’t quite work, scored away at boro, tried hard. Liked the club not even in the top 30 worst players ever to play for us

Aouchiche- are you having a laugh? Talented and set Roberts equaliser up this season and we will make a profit on him

Ba- Shame because he has talent, but probably not going to make it in England.

Connolly- Paid nothing for him, made nothing for him. Scored for us. No issues

Hemir- Yeah shite, but took a punt on a lad who was banging them in for Benfica reserves

Michut- again are you having a laugh. I’d have him back.

Joe G- A loan signing who actually did ok and played us off the park last week?

Aouchiche is bang average tbf, be lucky to get our money back for him unless he gets some kind of form for Pompey.

Ba hasn't got a brain and limited ability and its shown where he's ended up.

Hemir wasn't even 'banging them in for Benfica B'.

Gelhardt was shite.

We've moved on past players like Michut ffs.
All clubs make shit signings we are no different. Not all signings work out at clubs.

True. But the writing was on the wall with Poveda. He's barely put in a string of appearances or been fit for five minutes anywhere. We are signing too many players who already have a habit of regular injuries and whilst in some cases you can make a case for them, this one was a bit daft.

Gelhardt wasn’t “shite”.

He was part of a good 4 up top. They linked up well. Clarke, Roberts, Diallo and Gelhardt.

Don’t necessarily disagree with the rest mind, but pulling you up in that one ;)

We’ve seen some sh*te down the years, Gelhardt no where near those

Summer business has been a funny one -

Isidor - best signing in a long time.
Samed - Injured for 6 months, shite.
Poveda - injured for 6 months, still injured.
Aleksic - can’t get a kick.
Abdullahi - Injured on and off since signing.
Moore - done what he came to (Sit on bench)
Browne - mostly injured
Mepham - Excellent signing.
Connolly - barely got a kick.

He was absolutely slated on here at the time mind.

Hard working player but lacked quality. Not what we needed if we wanted to progress.
 
They signed Barnes for £40M who can barely get a game.

£50M Tonali couldn't get a game ahead of Longstaff a couple of months ago.

That £20M goaly is doing well...
Hate having to defend them, but Barnes is being kept out by Gordon but still has a very good goals/ assists per game he's played, Tonali has been one of their best players of late and everyone knows the goalie was signed for PSR reasons. FTM.

He’s just not meant to be. He’s had more injuries than first team starts.
Hate players like him all the skill in the world yet not willing to graft

Yet you see limited players sweat blood just to get a place
It could be interesting to compare proveda to Ekwah. I always felt that ekwah had some talent in him but never had the heart.

Deleted the needless abuse.

The mags are nowhere near the level of buying a player for £40M to sit on the bench whether that be Barnes or Gordon.

They bought Barnes to play on the opposite wing to Gordon. He can't get a game ahead of Murphy or Willock. If he was bought as competition for Gordon because they can only play on the same wing that would still make him a bad signing.

Tonali is nowhere near a £50M player.

Play nice.
Botmans always injured
The same people will slag our club off for having players out with ACL's or broken legs are the same people who excuse the mags for it 😂

You have your opinion about Barnes and Tonali and I think you are wrong. FWIW I think they'd easily get their money back if they decided to sell them.
Are you referring to me about slagging off our players? If so, give an example of when I've EVER done that. You'll not find one.

If we bought a player for say £5M who couldn't get a game would you be happy? I wouldn't.

The mags have bought Barnes for £40M at a time when they were crying that they were being denied the opportunity to buy whichever player they want because of PSR.

He's a bench warmer when they are desperate for big money starters.

I didn't say you have slagged out club off. That's your paranoia. There's plenty on this thread who do though.

What’s the cut off about being happy? Aleksic cost 3.5.
