Moyes Peddled

[TheBigSausage]

Rafa's been playing attackers as defensive players for a good portion of the season. Joselu will likely be sold as a central defensive midfielder.

Joselu will be sold to carry kids on Blackpool beach...befitting his Donkeyesque performances.

40 million combined. 20 each or 25 and 15 or 30 and 10?
It's fine getting them but they have to be used for the purpose they're bought and especially for larger transfer fees if this is what occurs.

Like who exactly?

I feel sorry for the lad. His work rate is spot on but his striker tag will never work without training and I'd guess that Rafa spends far too much time on defensive duties and overlooks striker training.
A beach Dinkey might suit him, but then again he might just find his feet in a team that can instill some strikers confidence in him by training it in and using him to proper effect.

I wouldn't write him off...except for us under Rafa.

I'm not bothered about other clubs.
Rafa's at fault for buying him, with no real mindset on enhancing his striker role, on or off the pitch, it seems by watching him.

Rafas fault for buying him eh?

So in your flat earth world of talking penguins and dancing frogs it goes like this does it?

Rafa badly needed a hardworking forward last summer, asks uncle Mike for funds, he says "sure thing" and gives over a blank cheque. Rafa scours Europe and finally says "fk your Ronaldos and Messis, theres Joselu at 5 million. He'll do me".

Fksake man.

Just embarrassing some of this thread. Not surprising but embarrassing.

Pellegrini the old City manager is apparently favourite at the minute.

Wrong.

I've never doubted Joselu' s attitude or work rate. Just his ability.
I doubt very much he was on Rafa's wish list, he just turned out to be the last pick in the transfer window.
