angieram Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 This thread is turning into the biggest example of trolling I've seen in here for a long time. As I mentioned earlier, when England played him at left wing back for their under 17s against Brazil we were all shocked, so out of position it was for him. He did play well there, though! ?

If Hourihane does come as suggested we need cash to pay his wages . He'll want more than our ceiling. So will need to be balanced. Do think this one will totally bite us on the arse though if it happens. In an attacking Coventry side he'll get 10-15 goals and next year they'll be looking to replace him. 2 minutes ago, Animal is a Ram said: Fixed that for you. Not that he has to prove anything to you just now. I'm sure if he scored 15 goals this season you still wouldn't be happy.

As we always do we buy crap wingers, can't afford anymore and wind up sticking midfielders and strikers out wide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomTom92 Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Sibley is an enigma, burst on to the scene and breathed life in to Cocu's team during covid. Then with everyone waiting for the Louie show to properly start up he seemed to drop out of favour. I would've had him down as a definite squad member for this season, however if LR doesn't rate him then Coventry may well got him on the cheap. I think at this stage in his career he's either got to be guaranteed plenty of minutes for us or he needs to be pushing for a move to start a fresh. Let's see how this one plays out.

Championship - 67 apps, 7 goals, 3 assists, mins per goal 2880. PL2 - 40 apps, 12 goals, 5 assists, mins per goal 3110. https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/louie-sibley/leistungsdaten/spieler/537270/saison/#gesamt He actually has a slightly better record in the time he's given in the Championship - because he's been limited to sub appearances for most of those. Also, he's still only 20. Also also - I see no left back appearances here: Caerphilly Ram, Indyram, Crewton and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Festy is like one of those golfers who smacks the ball 420 yards in competitions in texas attended by people who wear MAGA hats. But who can’t putt, chip, pitch or even bend over to pick up the ball from out of the hole. And why Italy, the country where the football aficionados admire an elegant 0-0 draw !! ?

Rev Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 It's a shame he didn't have longer working with Ashley Cole, he could have nailed down that left back spot otherwise. Crewton, Animal is a Ram and Ambitious 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was now well established we are working to a pre-agreed business plan regarding wages and the like. If Hourihane is signing it is for a wage we can afford and one he has accepted, one that has been budgeted for as you mentioned the need to be balanced, perhaps a combination of the wages saved on the likes of Roos, Ravel, Festy, Allsop, Ebiowei and Buchanan? Where does this idea that players will be demanding extortionate amounts from us keep coming from?

Where does this idea that players will be demanding extortionate amounts from us keep coming from? Exactly. It's not a case of us saying to the EFL "If you let us sign Hourihane, we promise that we'll sell someone so that we can afford him." If we're signing him, it's because we can afford him now and it's within the restrictions.

In 3 years? He was introduced to the first team at the end of the 19/20 season... and was lethal. I think that was within the last 3 years. He hasn't been given a chance to play on a regular basis since and his performances have shown that. Crewton, angieram and Indyram 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having played the game at decent standard, I promise you the higher you go the more difference being played out of position becomes a bother and he played 5 leagues above my best. Plus Rooney clearly had some personality clash with and not only played him out wide but did so for 10 minutes at a time. Can only remember coming on as a 10 twice and in one he scored against Brentford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would only base it on he has championship offers, so to drop a league below that he probably wants parity and maybe an incentive on top. He could be a nice guy whose made a lot of money and fancies the project. Footballs made me very cynical to be honest though. Seems more mercenary than it was 25 years ago.
