[Albion] Glen Kamara

[jamie (not that one)]

What would be a good division from which to buy Premier League standard footballers?
Obviously it's not The Premier League - Harry Maguire £85m.

We already know it's impossible to buy them in Holland.
Belgium is just a poor man's Holland.
Spain has no depth.
Germany ditto.
Scotchland is just monkey tennis.
France is monkey tennis against a wall.
Italy is just well... ...Italian.
South Africa - can't even get in the door.
Argentina - full of Jocko's

It's almost as if, if you're plying your trade in The World's Greatest League buying players away from that bubble has some form of inherent risk.

Spain has a shed load of great players who would make the grade for us knocking around teams outside the top 4. Just look at Betis and Getafe this season!

Just show them some videos from January onwards and what technically gifted player wouldn't want to come and lump the ball up to the big man?

Another season of CH in the Premier League would have been unbearable. The negativity absolutely stank imo. Let’s get relegated a la Fulham rather than a la Boro, if it has to happen..well for me anyway. I HATED the last three months of last season.

Can you even contemplate another season of 10 behind the ball and Murray upfront on his own?

Bring on the risk with an unproven manager and entertainment

I don’t go to the football being happy to come home pissed off and looking for a reason to avoid going to the next game.

If the Albion trotted out on 11.08 with Murray up top, I may well have lost my shite.

 

[stewart_weir]

All true of course. But don't you find yourself questioning why bigger Scottish clubs aren't looking at Kamara if he really is good enough to make a step up?

They are using Rangers as a stepping stone, same as any player coming to us will use us as a stepping stone. They are at Rangers so if they stay in Scotland only a move to Celtic is an upwards move and I really dont think any player at Rangers would go to Celtic.

 

[ferring seagull]

Kamara only signed for Rangers in the January window.

He is a product of Arsenal's academy !

 

[Icy Gull]

If the Albion trotted out on 11.08 with Murray up top, I may well have lost my shite.

Murray up top on his own is a no-no but with players in support would work for me. He could really thrive on decent service even now imo

Like that time we had our tallest player from Midfield up, Harry Kane, taking penalties even though A)He wasn't good at taking penalties and it was obvious, and B) There was nobody in the box to get on the end of them.

I liked Roy for that.

I assume you meant Harry Kane taking corners. Nobody else is allowed in the box to get on the end of a penalty (unless you're attempting a Henry/Pires clusterfook).

 

[Screaming J]

All true of course. But don't you find yourself questioning why bigger Scottish clubs aren't looking at Kamara if he really is good enough to make a step up?

Because hardly any of them may have even as much as a pot to piss in?

Tits, yeah. No idea why I was thinking penalties!

 

[Easy 10]

Neither players are Scottish. Tavernier is English and Kamara is Finnish

Finnish ? He's only 23.

 

[schmunk]

Finnish ? He's only 23.

Legendary. Still cracks me up.

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

There is a part of me which thinks we're preparing for the possibility of relegation. Maybe "evolving" the team with a few additions that may be competitive at this level but that would almost certainly be competitive in the Championship.

Why would Tony actively seek to return to his annual £30 million loss in the Championship ?

Tony Bloom has placed his bet.

Unbelievably there are Albion fans doubting his gamble.

That's genius (never heard it before)

 

[BBassic]

I don't think he's actively seeking it. I do think he's preparing for it.

 

[Icy Gull]

I don't think he's actively seeking it. I do think he's preparing for it.

Not even preparing but willing to take the risk to get back to playing quality football. If I ever hear “these are a good team” again it will be too soon

I would argue believably. As, thus far, it looks ****.

 

[Stat Brother]

I would argue believably. As, thus far, it looks ****.

That's your prerogative.

I, on the other hand, look at Mr Bloom placing a multi million pound bet and think:-

'F**k me I'd look a right wally betting against that'.

 

[Eeyore]

Rangers have another defender I prefer. Goldson or something ? Hearing good things.

 

[Johnny RoastBeef]

That's your prerogative.

'F**k me I'd look a right wally betting against that'.

Another indication of Tony's acumen will be where Chris Hughton ends up. My suspicion is he will get plenty of decent Championship job offers, but none in the Premier League, As that would be to big a gamble.
