Hi Eds. Any idea if Julian Brant might be an alternative to Fekir? I know he was our first choice target before we got Salah but have we watched the player after this? Thx.

{Ed002's Note - Right now I would think not.}

What does everyone think of Fekir at the World Cup so far?
I haven't been impressed at all, to be honest.
The lad Musa in the Nigerian team on the other hand, fantastic.

Never ever buy a player on the basis of a World Cup performance.

I think we should buy Iceland’s Rurik Gislason based on the World Cup. He is a very handsome man.

The same Musa that flopped at Leicester?

Juicer I assume that's sarcasm? Did you watch Musa at Leicester?

Musa flopped at Leicester just like Salah flopped at Chelsea.

Agreed Rosbow.
Musa has probably been the stand-out wide man of the tournament so far, for me, although it's a shame that's the last we'll see of him in Russia.
Leicester has nothing to do with it, he's been very good in every game and caused problems for all three opponents in a tough group.

Fakir, we'll see. At least his price tag hasn't rocketed up yet.

{Ed001's Note - Musa has been like it for years, revels in the space and time given to him in international football, then struggles in club football.}

Very good goal return in Russian club football ed001?
Better than a 1 in 3?

{Ed001's Note - as a striker in a weak league. It is not 'very good', 1 in 2 would be. He doesn't play wide there in the main.}

Oumar Niasse pretty much had a 1 in 2 record in Russia and he’s rubbish.

Niasse plays for Everton though, Messi would struggle there at the minute.

Musa was given game time at Leicester but couldn’t hack it. Salah wasn’t given that at Chelsea.

FranklyMrShankly, I agree.

Still curse Houllier for signing Diouf instead of Anelka.

That croatian defender has had a good tournament so far. We should look at him. Lovren I think he is called.

The other point to make is that Musa isn’t a number ten like Coutinho or Fekir. He’s a very one dimensional winger.

not sure if the Musa comment was a joke?

Fekir was almost the game changer against Denmark. post stinks of someone who has never watched him play league football before.
