And therefore, based on Gestede’s decision to spend 1.5M on Gueye, will be a terrible shout. 

Don’t make me get the big whacking stick out

this is the team he played, man for man is this better or worse than what we currently have 

Ooh good question... Id say current is just about better I think. Probably would only have Kaminski and Brereton out of that. Maybe Rothwell over Cantwell but its close. We have a better bench (though not much better) now too.

When poveda wasn't injured I'd of taken him over any wingers we have now - at least he could beat a man.

Only watched 2 minutes of the video posted but has a good few assists. As good as a goal in my eyes, all end up in the net

don`t get carried away with videos and you tube,telalovic looked a class act on his showreel😁

[Penwortham Blue]

I keep hoping that Unleaded is going to pop up and provide us with some hope 🙏

Apparently he is a fast, left footed wide player, 22 years old, French/Egyptian.  Still has 2.5 years left on his contract, so would probably cost more than Rovers are offering

If he is good, buy him, totally fed up with loans.

Learned my lesson years ago on Carlos Villanueva. Didn’t offer nothing even his video showed

I think he was called Jastin and hasnt really broken through since.

Blew us away that day, wanted him for that season and would still love him here now. Just what we need.

[simongarnerisgod]

unless we bring in another centre forward,it would totally crackers to let leonard go out on loan (though this is january and it`s blackburn rovers)so it`s quite possible

Probably had what, two good games for us?

[Ossydave]

A league 1 loan is probably exactly what he needs, but there's absolutely no chance we could allow that as it stands.....

Just coming good when he got injured. The Sheff Utd home game he was outstanding, got injured next game. Sickener all round.

Yep, Poveda and Khadra on either side that night were electric.

Same with that Italian striker Grabbi. Souness inexplicably signed him on the strength of a video! Never saw the player in person.

Anyone can look good on the bass of a video that only includes the good bits. Every player does something good at some point. Buyer beware!

 

[Ricky]

Wonder if Stockport have asked about Leonard. They’ve just lost a loan forward so could be looking for one.

In other news, the Opta "supercomputer" is doing a Mystic Meg impression again

That gives us a total 42.9% chance of finishing in the top 6. Which would probably be a fair shout based purely on the data from the season so far. What Opta of course can't factor in is Venkys fucking us in this window whilst other teams strengthen.

If we finish 7th again we would be the new derby minus the season of actually being properly funded and making a go of it

Ziderm was an absolute baller!

We could’ve signed him back in the day, but Uncle Jack declined stating that we don’t need him since we had Tom Sherlood.

He needs regular game time, hopefully he gets that if he goes. It obviously leaves us short but what else is new?

[Bbrovers2288]

Shudder, just heard completely unconfirmed and unfounded rumour that we are asking about Tyler Morton again….

If he's gained a few pounds and learnt not to give the ball away (which I partly blame for JDTs style) then I'm okay with it.

If not then no thank you!
