Anything else apart from the crap midfield, the crap recruitment and the crap building work progress you're slitting your wrists over ?Well they didn’t notice the gaping Moises and Alexis size hole in our mf so don’t expect much this time.

You're very negative for someone with inside knowledgeYou forgot the documentary.
Yes, but KDH PL stats are almost as bad, yet we were seemingly willing to spunk 40 million on him + Moder… hmmmmmmmmI was crucified for saying similar and I entirely agree with your assessment. I was very surprised by the expectation put on his comeback both at matches and on here, it was like we had been watching a different player.
He did okay in the context of some poor performances in the low points of Potter’s tenure, often playing out of position, which perhaps elevated how good he looked in comparison to his underperforming teammates. Despite this, he actually contributed very little of consequence (goals, assists) and was just a cog in the machine performing adequately.
I don’t mind Moder, he’s okay and can put in minutes with competence - but his stats don’t lie and he simply isn’t offering the team enough. He’s prime fodder for an area we need to upgrade, to be blunt.
Of course I’d love him to stay and blow us all away, but I just go back to my original point that as of now I don’t get the excitement about him as a player. Potential, sure, but a lot of our players have potential and although he’s still young, it’s very much this season or bust, at the Albion at least, if he even stays.Yes, but KDH PL stats are almost as bad, yet we were seemingly willing to spunk 40 million on him + Moder… hmmmmmmmm
I agree we need better, but we simply can’t afford better.
If KDH is a 40 million benchmark, well, we’re utterly screwed if we think we can buy genuine quality.
Retaining Moder, unless we unearth a bargain gem, is the most viable and financially astute option… who knows, Hurz might be able to get better stats out of him ?!? Just a thought.
I agree … although I admit this all seems a bit Alzate last close season… it is most definitely last chance saloon for Moder, but it might be he knuckles down and suddenly dominates like his physical attributes suggest he could!Of course I’d love him to stay and blow us all away, but I just go back to my original point that as of now I don’t get the excitement about him as a player.

I go back to my earlier statements....I agree … although I admit this all seems a bit Alzate last close season… it is most definitely last chance saloon for Moder, but it might be he knuckles down and suddenly dominates like his physical attributes suggest he could!
However, if there’s any truth that we were ready to ship him out effectively for free to a PL rival … heart sinks time ? There’s a long way back from that, mentally at least.
I hope he stays, unless we reinvent our options and it makes sense to let him go.
Agreed… £50 million to Leicester it is thenI go back to my earlier statements....
He.... Has.... Pace.
We rarely sign midfielders with pace, because their price goes up significantly.
We would be very foolish to give him away cheaply.
Wasn't WBG timed as the second fastest last week?I go back to my earlier statements....

Exit from the tournament?Second fastest what?
That’s true, maybe Hertz is zero tolerance when it comes to speeding offences etc.Moder's a player and I think he's potentially a very good one, I wouldn't be in any sort of rush to move him on. But he is an irresponsible driver, so he might be a wanker. If that's the case then he can pack his bags and get out!
To the haggis.Second fastest what?
Well, to be fair, they did provide the manager with a player (Dahoud) of whom RDZ said "I'm excited to have Mahmoud in my team. I wanted him when I was at Sassuolo and I'm sure he is going to be a top player for us."Well they didn’t notice the gaping Moises and Alexis size hole in our mf so don’t expect much this time.

After his Premier League debut, RDZ stated "Dahoud is a great player for us, because he is specific for our idea of football, our style of play..."
The club gave the manager the EXACT player he wanted - unfortunately, the moody Italian had binned him off within four months. That isn't the club's fault, is it.
