[Albion] Youssef Msakni

[Kalimantan Gull]

AND so it begins...

"Youssef Msakni | Brighton ‘very close’ to signing Tunisia international, expected to ‘fly to London’ soon to complete deal."

Anyone? Me neither...
I reckon 50 mins at most before Naylor snookers this one...

A bit more info just in case this has any legs, currently in the Quatari league, winger, 28 yrs old, scored 23 league goals, 14 assists in 20 apps last season, missed out on world cup squad due to and ACL injury. Seemingly still injured as no stats for this season, so fits our profile for signings perfectly!

They should spell it Quatar, but they don't

I would like to sign him just for the Mankini moniker

I had him in Subbuteo and he was rubbish.

Thankfully the African Cup of Nations is now in the summer so we won't be losing him immediately after signing him in January.

Don’t be silly, he’ll still be injured at the end of January.

I had him in Scrabble, and on a triple word score. Decent.

Another winger. Just what we need.

Well quite.... but I would counter with 'The star player from Tunisia, just what we need $$$'

He can join AJ, Bissouma, Kayal and Andone in the 'medium-sized countries new favourite premier league team' club

Very disappointed I'm having to do the heavy lifting

Bit of a bargain at £4.5m.

Another winger. Just what we need.

Can he beat LBs?

Which doesn't mean we shouldn't stop trying.


It really is the most wonderful time of the year.

Mrs...

Suspect that makes it a "Yes" from [MENTION=3566]hans kraay fan club[/MENTION].

Good God, yes.

Indeed, it's the season for giving.

Every rumour on here means Andy Naylor will have to give Barbs a quick text.

A word to the wise, having had many players from Iran choose easy money in Qatar over moving to European teams.. do NOT take anyone from Qatar's league. Don't even take anyone who has flown over a stadium in Qatar! That league just ruins players' skill and stamina. Moving from Qatar "all-stars" league to PL is a joke.

Is this a bit of rivalry talking I wonder.

Obviously it would be a step up moving to the premier league, out of interest what standard is the football in Qatar, and is it comparable to Iran’s leagues ?

 

[Bladders]

Does he take full-backs on?

More importantly, can he play full back ?

Huh. I'm not playing Scabble with you if you allow proper names ...

Naylor said No.
