[Albion] Andre Ayew

[BluesRockDJ]

Saw something on social media that we're looking at getting him in from Swansea......30 years old, 5'9" winger......do we need him ?

 

[Eeyore]

No, and we won't be getting him.

I know how trustworthy social media is normally though.

 

[BBassic]

Would much, much, much rather have Knockaert back if we're in the market for diminutive wingers.

 

[Mackenzie]

The Ayew’s school team must have been good.

 

[Swansman]

Its a class player. Seems a lot more mature than his brother as well: when Potter arrived at Swansea, Jordan Ayew refused to train in order to force a move away. Andre was out on loan that season, but since he returned last summer he's been great, despite going from making lots of CL appearances in big clubs over his year to fighting for this young Swansea side. Great player, great attitude. I pick him over the other Championship options every day of the week.

as I posted in the "zero chance" thread the Daily Fail reported it ...... and for more clicks now say Wellbeck

Not sure the Mail can make their mind up Ayew AND Wellbeck ?

Ha! Snap to this nonsense !

For sure. Jordan and Andre have a third brother (Ibrahim) who himself has 7 Ghana caps.

(They’d have been good in the lads and Dads game too - their father is Abidé Pele...)

 

[OzMike]

Will be the usual thing, linked with everyone and get no one.

 

[lizard]

God no. Terrible player at this level.

 

[One Teddy Maybank]

No, nowhere near good enough.

would have thought we would have done some sort of deal with Gykores going the other way if we were interested.

Currently on £90 000 a week at Swansea in the Championship? No wonder they're struggling financially.

[Poppett63]

No nearly as bad as his brother who does nothing for Palace.

Apparently, on hearing this gossip, Tony Towner was quite upset at not being considered in front of Ayew

Not clicking a link to the sun. How the hell can this bloke be on that much? Swansea were relegated 2 years ago, do they not have relegation clauses? I assumed since Pompey went bust these clauses had become common place. Staggering IF true.

 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

No way should we cover all of his wages but he’s a good player. We only have two strikers which imho is not enough. My Swansea friends say they’re amazed he’s still with them. We could do worse.

 

[Not Andy Naylor]

2 plus 2 equals 5 again from the work-experience kids told to make up transfer rumours.

Brighton don't seem to have as many forwards as some other clubs, therefore they absolutely must be desperate to sign some before the transfer window closes (whatever Graham Potter has actually said). So who might they want? Ooh - Potter was at Swansea so obviously he'll want one of his former players from there (even though he didn't try to get them in either of the two previous windows).

Or maybe Danny Welbeck. Or Troy Deeney. Or ...

And so it goes.

They did not have relegation clauses which indeed hurt them badly. Ayew is the only one left on a PL contract though.

 

[Rinkmaster]

Morally wrong for us to pay those wages with what is going on. Take welbeck on a free. What's the worst that can happen.

I agree it's probably made up nonsense and they've also probably not even realised that as Swansman pointed out, he didn't actually play for Potter.

But, he is actually a decent player and I'd be happy if we did sign him (if we can afford him!).
