Must admit I never saw his potential prior to this season at all, although I hardly ever see the U23s. I just assumed he'd end up lower down the trough after a year or two, at Scunthorpe or somewhere as ****. But I've been genuinely astounded from Swansea onwards. Ok, he's raw in parts of his game, as you'd expect, but I'd be shocked if he wasn't already a big fat dot on PL clubs' radar.
Did you not watch last season?!?! 13 goals 6 assists at 19/20 is very impressive in any English league.
I always thought there was a player in there. Was told he had a very bad patch in training last season when Elder was injured so didn’t capitalise on his chance last season. Elder edges him in a 4 but as a wing back Fleming all day.
I know where you're coming from, I was a bit confused by that myself Anyway, anyone have any idea what Acun was talking about when he said we're going to shock the football World with the plans we have for next season? It’s a bit cryptic and nobody I know (or anyone on here) has come up with anything credible. There's been some creative suggestions but nothing at all to make me think, Hmmn.
One of the games recently, think it was Derby, having 4 Hull born in the starting eleven. Never thought I'd see such a day.
No idea mate. I’m happy to wait and find out what it is when it’s officially announced though – don’t want to ruin the surprise etc. Just hope it’s nowt tacky or embarrassing.
I don’t think he does tacky. Embarrassing maybe but as a lifelong football fan I’d doubt that too. It’ll be something he can market from I imagine.
Agree and hope you're right. Just after some of the **** the last regime regularly piped out, I'm cautious, but I am optimistic about Acun and his modus operandi in general. I think some of the media, national particularly, like to portray him as some whacky fun foreign 'guy', like they do with so many. Out of order.
If it is that though, who realistically would watch it ? In terms of numbers to make something like that viable? It'd be a great leap to think anyone in significant numbers would, here or in Turkey. Maybe he'll do a fly-on-the-wall docu series, as many clubs have these days, but you'd like to think his grand idea is not based in reality TV.
That's given me a thought. How many times have you been at the urinal in a busy pub, go have a piss, only to find two or three girls stood there laughing at you It even happens at work with the cleaner. There I am relieving myself, squeezing the drops when I turn around only to find her gawping. There are standards you know
