So what does the peanut gallery think of signing Werner permanently? Good bench warmer? Not good enough?
I guess with Levy's attack on the pensioner/disabled seats there is a lower chance of somebody in the upper stands copping a ball in the face from one of his shots.
He was a cheap stop gap, he's nowhere near good enough to play as a first choice forward for us. I guess with Levy's attack on the pensioner/disabled seats there is a lower chance of somebody in the upper stands copping a ball in the face from one of his shots.
I bet Levy buys him because it's an easy deal and he's cheap.
We sold the best anyone else will come up short
Depends who else we are looking to bring in over the summer. There are some very obvious transfers that will happen, given the financial status of some clubs:
Gallagher
Toney
Braithwaite
Eze
Olise
Kelly
Adarabioyo
Dewsbury-Hall
Maybe even Palmer, Isak etc.
2 or 3 of those we've definitely been courting.
If we assume that we sign a striker (and probably move Richarlison on to Saudi), then Son plays left and Werner is a squad player. Great pace, gets into good positions but final ball isn't really good enough. Certainly not as a starting 11 player. Could we buy better, probably (we could certainly buy worse). Depends where Ange wants to prioritise the money. It would certainly be a Levy signing but I don't see the value in bulking out the squad with a 28 yo on £165k a week, who isn't demonstrably better than what we already have.

Tonights game has to be one of the most basket case fixtures in the entire league, who knows what's going to happen.
Yeah on the face of it this could end up 5-5, but unfortunately these things sometimes end up dull 0-0. Need Spurs to get 3 points. Don't want top 4 to be off the table by the time they play City

Good energy, reasonable crosses, but not a great finisher... undecided. At times useful, who have we got who's better?

The original question was should we sign him permanently, not who have we got better now, to which my answer is a resounding no we shouldn't sign him, we can do much better.We sold the best anyone else will come up short
