[Albion] Bissouma replacing Caicedo thoughts?

[Heart and Soul]

Caicedo is the better player of course but Bissouma have a similar set of skills (fantastic ball winning and being able to turn with the ball in tight areas).
Wouldn't be very exciting but we would know what we'd get.

 

[Hugo Rune]

Angie will release that Biss is one of their best players. There is no way we’ll be buying him back, but I’d be made up if we did.

 

[B-right-on]

Can't take him back as we've recycled his song.

Aside from that, in theory yes would be a great replacement (though I'd find it exciting) but in reality, isn't going to happen.

 

[hans kraay fan club]

I honestly don’t think there’s much in it. Bissouma is a fantastic player, who I’d absolutely love to see back.

It can never happen though - as soon as a player leaves for a BIG club, their wages are elevated to a level we’d never pay.

 

[The Optimist]

Didn’t he finish last season strongly with Spurs after a slow start and then injury? Can’t see Spurs wanting to sell him.

 

[Bakero]

Would we want him? Yes
Is it going to happen? No

Yeah my Spurs mate really rates him (as he should) and he's apparently playing well in preseason too.

 

[Iggle Piggle]

I think what last night showed was when Caceido isn't on the pitch, he is a massive miss. Early days but we have been spoilt with top tier quality in defensive midfield in particular. We could do with another on the books.

Yes, according to my spuds supporting mate, he was excellent towards the end of the season & in their warm up games thus far,

Easy, Bissouma gets his song back; Mitoma gets My Mitoma to the tune of My Sharona.

Problem solved.

And yes, I'd love Bissouma back. Great player.

*Bbasic got there first,

 

[Bozza]

It would be marvellous, but there's no chance of that happening at all.

He's already got their fans raving from his pre-season endeavours. In a less basket-case setup than Spurs were under Conte, and if he can stay injury-free, he'll absolutely shine this season.

 

[beorhthelm]

as i recall Bissouma fell out with Conte, wouldn't follow instruction to sit in deep holding position ("struggled with tactics"). dont think he'll have same problems with other managers.

 

[Stat Brother]

16 more windows of this - buckle up people.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Biss will thrive under Ange. It is a joke that Hojbreg was even preferred at the outset. Skipp is a poor man's Biss, god help whoever signs Skipp.

Club would never have him back

Club would never have him back

I don't think he'd be a RDZ player.

 

[Stato]

He wouldn't come. He joined Tottenham to play Champions League football and wouldn't lower himself to the Europa League.

 

[Zeus]

He’s probably earning double our highest paid player. No way is he coming back.

Don't agree. We had the game in our pocket until the sending off. Yes, Caceido would improve that first half team but his absence didn't leave us being overun in midfield.
