I don't think either ASM or Almiron are the players to take us to the next level but I'd be shifting Almiron first out of the two of them. 

 

I'm going to go against the consensus and say I'm a bit sad to see ASM going. He could have been a valuable asset in champions league games but we'll never know now.

 

It's his inconsistency and chronic fitness problems which mean he's the one leaving, even though he has more natural talent than Almiron.

 

It all depends on how we spend the money we receive for him now. If we end up with Chiesa or Diaby plus Barnes and a new left back and a centre back then you have to say it's decent business. 

 

I'm sad to see him go because he's great fun to watch. It's funny, if we were like 3 years down the line, he'd be a great player to come off the bench and provide a new problem for the opponents to deal with. But right now, heis inconsistency and injury problems mean we'd be better off with less skillfull but more consistent, more available players taking up that squad place.

Said almost the same in a mates chat group last night - it's a timing thing.

I don’t really get what the fuss is about

 

ASM is fine, just fine, that’s all, he’s alright, decent, nothing special really.

 

he’s pretty fun to watch when he gets his dribbly stuff going but you know watching that it’s rarely going to be productive because he’s a superb dribbler and a mediocre final ball player or finisher.

 

When we were shit that was plenty, a rare bright spark because he could create something out of nowhere just often enough for us to stay up.

 

We aren’t that team anymore though, we create from our plan, we score because we have good players putting that plan into action.

 

We don’t need Allan saint maximin now like we used to, so he can be sold to make us a better team which should ultimately be what we all want.

That article about the launch of that Greek mythology-based board game. :lol: I kind of quite liked his doing it, just for it being so off the wall really. But when it said he spent nine hours taking people through the rules :lol: 

 

Didn't know he had made a game. I play and design a few myself.

 

Had a look at his game though, and it isn't great! Can't see how it took him 9 hours to teach it! :D 

 

Looks very flashy but in the end it didn't deliver

Haven’t you got pics of young adults with speech impediments/mild undiagnosed autism to be pouring over? :cuppa:

 

Whoa, Dr PaddockLad and his social media based neuro divergent diagnoses!

All the people crying on Twitter as if we're off loading Bruno.  People like LTA needing a new tammy etc

LTA is an outlier. I feel like I'm one of his bigger fans on here, and I'm not that arsed he's leaving, which says it all. The consensus is it's time to cash in on him

Same here. 

 

Although, besides the goal against Wolves and the runs against Burnley a couple of seasons ago, I'm struggling to think of a great goal, or wonderful assist.

@LongTimeAdmirer I saw that post you deleted. If he digs his heels in he’ll be training with the U23s till he sees sense and fucks off. If a fee is agreed for a player it’s a pretty strong indicator that the player is no longer required . That sort of comprehension is probably a bit subliminal for someone such as yourself but it’s normal in football 👍😀

You're a silly goose. 

 

The clubs loses any goodwill with the player in that situation, why would he move to the club you want him too? Can just run down your contract or dig your heels in to force the club to accept a lower fee to a location he wants instead of being forced to head of to the middle east. 

 

Dont want to hear tears about loyalty/mercs from you when teams come in for Bruno later on. 

 

Anyway, maxi not going anywhere. 

 

You're a total WUM. He's gone
