Good positive interview after the game.

 

I like the cut of his jib.

 

And his hair.

If the club sold Faes wigs in the club shop, we will single handedly be able to pay off the energy bills for the entire country for the next 6 months within weeks.

 

Wheelan, Top, you know what to do.

Gets his head on everything which is something we generally lack. Have noticed over the last year or so we really struggle to pick up second balls, especially in a way to turn play over. Noticed today how many we won in contrast and Wouts heading ability is definitely a big part of that.

Are you gonna apologise to all those people you quoted having ago at for rating him?

When you apologise for having a go at me for suggesting I wouldn’t give Amartey a new contract.

You go first..

Brilliant post. He’s not a Fofana like for like replacement but he’s exactly what we need right now. Very solid. 

Imagine if we signed him instead of Vestergaard last season? Would have been perfect for the squad rotation game. Being able to rotate between him, Evans, pre-meltdown Soyuncu and Fofana would have probably got us European football again. Ah well, at least we fixed it at the second time of asking.

 

Signings are hard to get right consistently. Soumare looking not so bad this season, so perhaps that window is not as awful as we thought. Lookman is top of Serie A with Atalanta and thriving! The Southampton duo... well the less said the better. Though I suppose 15m for the pair combined isn't as bad as flops like Lukaku to Chelsea, Maguire, Werner, etc.

Looked really good today, but better then Fofana, I'm not so sure. Fofana has the potential to be an absolute world beater assuming injuries don't get him.  

Yeah let's see after a season or so. Fofana, as long as he stays injury free will end up at Real Madrid,Barca or PSG after Chelsea. As you say he doesn't really have a ceiling. Faes was immense tonight and he's only 24 so he looks a real player but it's easy to get carried away. Fofana is one of the best young talents in world football.

Get him a decent solid partner in Jan and our defence suddenly becomes top 10 again. He is class though and definitely softens the blow of loosing Fofana.

That and a left back and we can start looking upwards, Justin still doesn't look confident.

This signing could turn out to be 1 of the biggest in our history could be the difference between going down and staying up 

Sadly this is true. Lot of pressure for the lad that only knew he was signing for us 2 days before the window shut!

 

So far, so good though! Fofana the better player by far but you know what, Faes might end up being better for us right now, because he's got more of that mental fortitude and experience, which we so sorely need. Different type of player, but the Huth effect is desperately needed from Faes if we are to survive. Fofana doesn't give you that, Faes might just you know.

 

Good start to his career so far!

Hopefully Ricki returns and stays fit. Move Castagne to left play Ricki right. Or just buy a solid left back :)

I heard they have just spent 10m on stock.
