Similar to yourself - you make all the excuses under the sun for some players and not for others.

It's pretty natural for people to have their favourite players and look for the positives in them, but don't criticise others when you are the biggest culprit.

Why are you so triggered by what I post :rofll:

Feel free to block me if it bothers you so much


It's more so disappointment, son.

It's a messy forum but there are still some good posters about.

We had no good options at the wing before this season and now we have two very quick and technical players on either side in Pepe and Saka. It makes a massive difference.

Love to see him get better.

Was ok. Still not convinced, but maybe we can get a tidy sum back out of him.

He's put 3 good performances in since his horror show against Liverpool.
Probably the best run he's been on.

He has been good against weak sides like the EL teams and likes of SU. Hasn't shown much vigour against tough teams like Foxes or Villa not to speak of Pool or MC. At his price tag he has a lot to prove still. One of reasons we aren't challenging the top yet.
Goes same with a few others.

Crazy how much space he was in. It was a good chip, but against better oppo he would get closed down well before he could take a second touch.

I’d sell him in summer if we could get 30-40 mil.

Agreed but for forwards confidence is key as we’ve seen with Laca so better to give Pepe a run now until he shows otherwise. He’s earning it, which is all we asked.

Scores a fair few goals and that’s pretty valuable, has potential and given a good run might see some of that being realised.

Another goal and another assist. He's been in good form. Not bad 'Gervinho'. 8 goals last season, 10 goals so far this season so it's an improvement. All round game is looking better.
