Carvalho - our next signing?

[The Nomad]

Haha, Lynch actually broke it at 20.30 in an interview with Liverpool.no. But everyone knows the Firm gets all the stories. Hard not to with offices all around the World.

I'm not saying Lynch is the firm. But has anyone ever seen both in the same room?

…..The emperor is many things, but at least he isn't a cunt.

A gaggle of Skywalkers, a few Solo’s, his former master, his own son & granddaughter, his little green friend and a fuckload of Temura Morrison clones might disagree with you there.

Many more innocent taxpayers on naboo would all agree with me.

A new Fabinho.. does that mean the original becomes Fabio again? Or does the latter become Fabinhoho

 

[Frogfish]

That is a better experience than meeting that cockney twat radio host who presented the big breakfast in the 90's, walking his bulldog, across the middle of your game, letting it take a shit, then saying "sorry lads, I don't have a bag", before realising that was not the words he needed to speak in that moment, ruffling through his coat, and using some makeshift tissue to wipe it up, then walking off, leaving a watery diarrhea ridden shit stain in the middle of the pitch. The emperor is many things, but at least he isn't a cunt.

Consider yourself lucky you were playing football not rugby !

To be fair, this statement stands on its own merit, regardless of the context, and will always be true

Playing against city should be a good watch for those of us who have only seen clips

Hope he has a stinker, keep the attention away from himself and others looking at him until we get this deal over the line ;-)

 

[Markeh]

If we do sign this lad does it make sense to let him stay at Fulham next season?

 

[Hyena]

I hope he takes a dive to get Sterling sent off, and all 5000 fans at the Etihad boo him.

I don’t think so. History tells us Fulham will be the whipping boys.

 

[dantes]

City will have already booked him a hotel and a flight back for the following day, so they can discuss his future plans with him over dinner.

[Frogfish]

Clearly has skills but it's not easy to say from a 2 minute clip 😉

I don’t think so. History tells us Fulham will be the whipping boys.

Yeah, but they'll be the whipping boys playing the right way if history serves.

And we're not getting wirtz. No chance in hell. Lads a talent

Look at these stats:

 

[Fabio]

Look at these stats:

Exactly. He's too good

Exactly. He's too good

For the quad winners?

We like our 25 year olds

Madrid should take him to replace one of their dinosaurs.

Don’t we all?

At least one current and one former Everton player don't

 

[darkstarexodus]

At least one current and one former Everton player don't

Sure they do. They love their 20 five year Olds.

His assist last night. Intentional or lucky?

His assist last night. Intentional or lucky?

Good question

 

[Hyena]

His assist last night. Intentional or lucky?

Definitely looks like he intended to score.

With the defender rushing him, and the near post covered well, there was a very limited angle and window to get the shot off. I would be surprised if he had time to look for his teammate.

 

[Hyena]

On second thought I watched the full highlights of this game on youtube, and it struck me that:

(1) he has a very good sense of space and possibilities in the box, so it would not be surprising if he knew what was happening.

(2) he does not take many first-touch shots at goal. This could either mean that he intended it as a perfect pass, or that his shooting was bad because he did not have time to compose himself.
