It’s actually a good and clever move by us……for once 😂 Apologies I meant the fact that original sources suggested there would be an option to purchase at the end of the loan, however it appears to be to be this is mandatory as opposed to optional?

He’s a bit of a clown, who’s made some blunders off the pitch, but he’s definitely not stupid like you’re suggesting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_77 Posted 25 August 2023 Share Posted 25 August 2023 (edited) I think everyone should chill out about the terms of the deal until we get to read any reports that don’t have to be run through Google Translate.

Popular Post FosseSpark Posted 25 August 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 25 August 2023 There's a lot of 'banter' on here that Nacho is thick. Seems pretty obvious why that might be. I've never heard anything from the club or content suggest it though, so I think it comes from specific fans opinions. In terms of football intelligence, hold up play, touch and movement on the field I'd say he is one of our most intelligent players when on form. For thick players, look no further than Jack Grealish, who doesn't know what an encyclopedia is. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the prior report it was was said that an obligation to buy kicks in if he plays at least half the games and we win promotion. If we don’t get promotion then it’s an option to buy and the fee was a around 1m less. 450k loan fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was worried we would struggle to attract the type of technically excellent wide players you ideally want in this type of system to the Championship. He looks technically a level above what I expected us to be able to get, so pretty happy with this, and if the deal structure is as reported it looks great. Not only that, if reports Montella recommended him to Maresca are true, we have someone who has coached the player for a year, knows his attitude and talent recommending him to us (he also worked with Enzo and knows his style). Seems like we have done plenty right here. Edited 25 August 2023 by FoxesWalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There has been threads on here with far more pages based on much less.

Funny because I remember plenty of 'jokey banter' about demari grey being thick. I wrote it off at the time because let's face it he did nearly walk into a moving helicopter blade! But now with ineacho there does seem to be a pattern about which players some of our fans decide are stupid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
