Lewis Hall

So I’m guessing Eddie doesn’t fancy him at all and won’t activate his buy option now?

 

Wasn’t it an obligation rather than an option?

 

Certain things have to be met. No idea what though

 

it surely has to be appearances? They brought him in… Eddie took a look and though ‘oh ****’ so they don’t play him and ship him back.

 

I think that as well. Not as good as the first thought, well not for £30m

 

Definitely. No other explanation. Once Targett comes back I imagine Hall will be sent back.

 

What’s bizarre is that there is no return date for Targett

 

Without knowing the facts

 

My take;
Hall and Livramento were Ashworth signings as he’s seen them through England development.
Tonali was a scout job as he was/is a top player Milan wanted to sell. Now we know why, so that scout should be ****ing sacked.
Barnes is a Howe signing as he wanted the maverick ASM out and needed cover there.

 

Barnes is already more productive than ASM

 

Phillips was definitely a player Howe was after and I fear he still will be. I personally refuse to believe that Hall isn't a better player than Dan Burn. I'm convinced Howe picked Burn and is manipulating things accordingly.

I'd like to point out that one of our best performances of this season was away at Man united and that was with Tino and Hall playing ..... Hall scored a goal and we've never seen that back 4 again... it's baffling.

 

Barnes is a good player hes got goals in him.. he's got quality. ... it's players like Murphy and Longstaff still holding us back... the worst part is they've managed to get the fans lapping up their dreadful performances. Murphy pulls funny faces and longstaff runs around alot doing nothing 90 times out of 100.

 

Or 9000 times out of 10000.

9/10 for shorthand users.

 

Yeah but neither would be playing of it weren’t for injuries and season long bans

 

I fully expect both to be starting and playing next season. They'll sell Joelinton and almiron maybe and buy Anderson from Palace and maybe Solanke.

 

I don’t

 

They will still be here years

 

They won’t.

 

Longstaff will be here till we at least have 4 home grown players for European competitions.

Anderson, Miley, Dummet and Longstaff currently.

Longstaff to be fair to him at least earns his wage. Dummet on the other hand??????????

 

I read somewhere that they thought Dummett was a ‘natural’ left back
