Our worst signing from the Bundesliga

Is it Keita or Thiago ?

We've had a few shite ones but at least Dundee and Riedle were cheap or free
 
Yeah, Thiago is our worst German signing ever. That's your definitive answer, right there.

Or come back when he throws a Champions League final for us.

While he was shite I'm not sure him getting a concussion and being left on the pitch was his fault
 
The Bald Lucas is frustrating right now but he's no Philip Degen

This is true but probably not how you'd think.

A worse Liverpool team had a better win rate with Degen playing than the best Liverpool team in 30+ years has with Thiago playing.

6 wins, 1 draw, 6 losses with Degen
3 wins , 2 draws, 5 losses with Thiago.
 
Wonder what percentage of the threads this guy starts are negative. Hardly seen on the football forum during our successes. Seems to be thriving now.

My negative thread rate is higher than our win percentage with Thiago.

But let's face it, that's not exactly a difficult bar to clear.

Ahh ok. But a midfielder who has won everything, has been with us for 5 minutes and is adapting to a dismembered midfield, is our worst Bundesliga signing ever? Gotcha.

Yup. He's fucking shite and he has no excuses.
 
Wenger was saying last night that thiago hurts our midfield as he lacks the aggressiveness...
That doesn't name him a bad player ... the issue is the team cannot press as well with him, which hurts us

I think it's obvious that he isn't suited to our team, any sensible non retarded person can see that.
 
The point of Thiago was to help evolve the side to counter the expected low blocks the champions face each year, as well as provide a long term replacement for Gini Wijnaldum. While he hasn't delivered on that remit to date, we should wait until he has Henderson and Fabinho back in midfield. If you compare his debut performance against Chelsea to what he's doing now it's clear his role has completely changed, and with that he's having less impact on games in the final third. He was decent last night at doing just the basics, along with Jones.

Keita is obviously pointless and should be sold at the first opportunity. £70m plus investment to date that cannot get himself on the pitch. We're being fleeced.

We won 2-0 against the 2nd best team in Germany with 10 players missing due to injury. I don't see the need for this post. It's still too early to make any pronouncements on Thiago, the English league is so intense, he needs time to acclimatise.
Kieta didn't play today and we have missed his penetrating runs, but it's his injuries that have infuriated us fans, as a result I would like to see him gone in the summer.

Fucking hell, Ross has got me agreeing with Bluebell. Maybe he’s reached peak troll and crossed over into Kofi Annan “unite all factions” mode
 
Thiago has hardly been here a wet day, some non UK players who have had an excellent career in England endured a shite 1st season.
 
Yup. Any Thiago bashing is ridiculous at this stage. He’s supposed to be the icing on the cake but the cake is a bit smashed up at the moment.

Keita on the other hand is one of the biggest disappointments since Kewell.
 
How the fuck is Voronin getting a free ride?

😀

Keita by a miles. He was supposed to be the new Gerard. More like the new Darren Anderton.

What a waste.
 
How is Thiago anywhere near this chat? Even if his start here as been meh, he's still a proven world class talent, Voronin, Degen, Karius and even Keita should be way ahead of him in the Deutschland shithouse stakes.

Because its food for the troll. And any fool knows that the answer is Sean "I'm faster than Michael Owen" Dundee. He was OK because he was only £2m? He was that shit they should have been paying us to take him off their hands
