    Players you really hope we dont get

    lots of discussions regarding players we might sign in the summer, so on the flip side, are there any players you would not like to see arrive this summer?

    personally id hate to see Calvert Lewin or Richarlison - imo neither are good enough and dont have the right attitude

    Ha ha...great thread.

    Richarlison would be at the top of a separate list on his very own, for me. Sour-faced, sulky, diving, moaning, over-rated little shit.

    Normally I'd be all over this, with a list as long as Ron Jeremy's pork sword. But this summer, I am going to trust Eddie and his scouting / recruitment network, to make all their choices based on ALL criteria.

    Talent, character, ability to fit in to our squad etc.

    Lots of linked names would not be choices of mine, but for the 1st time since the mid 90's. I trust the system and the men / women running it!

    Exactly this for me too. Just sit back, let Eddie and others do the scouting, selections, and deals, and enjoy it all developing.

    There will be some surprises and perhaps even the odd frown or puzzled look. But after a decade and a half of frustration and stagnation as Mick says, "trust the system"

    Can't argue.

    However, don't want Richarlison or Clavert-Lewin anywhere near our club.

    Another one I didn't mention previously.

    Armando Borja - Can someone explain to me the fascination with this guy?

    Years Team Apps (Gls)
    2020– Chelsea 1 (0)
    2020–2021 → Vitesse (loan) 30 (10)
    2021– → Southampton (loan) 32 (6)

    That is marginally better than Joselu numbers, I don't get the hype.

    Richarlson and Deli Ali are the types of players I would not have in my club or socialise with,nasty gits.

    I don't want Tarkowski. We've already got centre backs that are near or over 30 and he wouldn't improve us imo

    After what Eddie did to Joelinton, I can’t think of anyone!
