baldeagle Posted 22 August 2021 Share Posted 22 August 2021 This guy needs to be coming on as a sub and slowly introduced to the premier league or starting cup games etc . He’s already been on loan for the 3 seasons . Yea I know that’s mainly due to work permit reasons but he’s got 61 first team appearances . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needs to be someone who can contribute. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GingerrrFox Posted 22 August 2021 Share Posted 22 August 2021 Only goes if we get a winger in, no way he goes if we don’t as with the number of games to play he will at least get 10 appearances this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An Sionnach Posted 22 August 2021 Share Posted 22 August 2021 If he remains at the club ,we will have a right side of Pereira, Castagne, Perez, Albrighton and Sowah . Justin returning will also be an option. Arguably that is pretty strong , Left side we have Bertrand, Thomas, Barnes and Albrighton and Justin if necessary. Personally I don't see any real weaknesses even if we fail to get another wide attacker. Matheus Pereira would have been the ideal reinforcement because of his versatility on either side and centrally and I would love to know why we couldn't find a way of convincing him to come. The money was there for Vestergaard so I assume there were other reasons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As someone who was initially bought for £7.8m and became available at the end of the season with little signs of clubs beating down his door, he had a decision to make. As he said, a chance to earn an exorbitant amount of money became an option, in view of no teams, of any stature, willing to employ him. If no one is interested, and no international representation liability, it is no wonder he would opt for the pot of gold, than to continue to ply his trade in a team with a manager, who no longer valued or respected him.

Foxxed Posted 22 August 2021 Share Posted 22 August 2021 A top championship club would do him good but I’d rather we keep some cover in case of injuries. Give him some cup games, a few run outs in games we’re winning, then loan him out in the new year unless he’s broken through to the first team.

FoxesWalk Posted 23 August 2021 Author Share Posted 23 August 2021 Hopefully a buy back in that. Bruges did recently sell Dennis to Watford (who I rated when we played them), so they have cash Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moore_94 Posted 23 August 2021 Share Posted 23 August 2021 Fuming if we let him go permanently, big fan of him and think he could definitely at least be a good squad player to have in the future. I hope the club looks to try and include a buy back clause because I have no doubt he will put up even bigger numbers at Club Brugge than he was at Leuven and will get some good interest in him in the future. This better mean we are bringing in a quality winger. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
