[Albion] Evan Ferguson

[mejonaNO12 aka riskit]

"Proved himself to a certain extent"? Has he really?

Yes


Hence people being interested in him

 

[Munkfish]

"Don't sell Evan
Evan Ferguson
I just don't think you understand,
that if you sell Evan, Evan Ferguson
You're Gunna have a riot on your Hands"

 

[jackalbion]

Hes proved himself as much as Connoly proved himself.

Connolly scored 4 premier league goals in the same time frame that Ferguson scored 13, more than triple.

 

[Super Sub]

I would only want Evan sold permanently if it was so we could fund the purchase of Delap.
In the long run I think Evan will be the better goal scorer but I think Delap is more suited to the way we play.

 

[jackalbion]

I think that possibly included his goals against Grimsby, to be fair.

And besides, he has done nothing since for 18 months, so it's quite subjective to consider whether or not he's proved himself. Certainly not as clear cut as the case of Aaron Connolly anyway.

It doesn't include those goals. A large chunk of the last 18 months he's been injured, and within the last 18 months he has scored a premier league hattrick.

Which is precisely the reason for all the hype, pretty much.

Did the back half of the 2022/23 season pass you by then?

No, not at all. I just don't believe he has what we need e.g. pace, guile, strength, etc, etc.

Seeing your the go to for things allegedly Evan Ferguson based

Please can you tell me if his favourite food is jellied eels

 

[J2 DOG]

There is no doubt he has talent and could develop into a top striker. Why would you sell him unless he wants out?

 

[DJ NOBO]

No, not at all. I just don't believe he has what we need e.g. pace, guile, strength, etc, etc.

Based on 22/23 Evan ?

Because Alan Shearer thought otherwise

Because if the club thinks he’s permanently lost what he had, it’s the chance to get some decent cash while there’s still a buzz about him and escape the long contract he’s on.

It's 2025.

 

[DJ NOBO]

It's 2025.

Sure . So you mean you don’t think he STILL has all those good things ?
That matters because we know for certain that peak Evan is seriously good. And so worth persevering with more than most.
If he hadn’t shown that talent I’d agree and get rid.
Also worth selling if the club is convinced the magic is permanently gone

His favourite food is GOALS

Poor lad must be starving. Maybe that's why he's not playing?

 

[Hiheidi]

In one of those Sky interviews, he said it's his mum's chicken pie.

BORING

 

[The Optimist]

My opinion is that Ferguson is more valuable to the club than the manager. A young striker with bags of potential vs some 31 year old who may not see the end of next season.

Hurzeler will see the end of the season.

We would have to go on a monumentally bad run (which we won’t) for Hurzeler to be sacked before then.

Not necessarily, harmony in the dressing room is paramount, I think the likes of Welbeck and Milner if they voiced concern would be listened too by Bloom.
