Common denominator here is we sold or will sell all those at a profit.

And yet he still contributed to two goals.

@OLNews_eng: Clinton Njie was back in practice today, but Lacazette stayed back to take care of his back.

A more positive highlight video of his performance against Saint Etienne (apologies if this has been posted already)
We need players in the final third who pass and move with pace, it will get the best out of a player like Eriksen and this seems to be his game.
At a young age it's no surprise that he is inconsistent, but the raw ability is there.

The same way I'm aware that average players can have the odd blinder? Yes I grasp that form fluctuates.
But some things in this video are pet hates of mine but that's just my personal opinion. I trust (pray) we know what we're doing (ish).

This is the mentality of a lot of posters nowadays, clamour for this guy then when hes about to sign pick him to pieces, it is genuinely shocking to think some people on here must actually smile in a day, let alone keep an open mind! and im not talking about having opinions or fears, I am talking about people forming preconceived notions before the guy has even signed! (He HAS a terrible touch, he HAS no vision) opinions are fine but how about we wait and see on the nuances of his game once he signs yeh?
The biggest judge you can often have of a player is what his fans think of him, and as far as ive seen he's almost universally praised by Lyon fans, his contribution is not under question

Good post.
There's people on here who will literally complain over anything. No matter what they will find the negative. Its tiring as well.

I remember Soldado trained up until the very last minute with Valencia so
It wouldn't shock me if we are still close as reported by media and ITK.

You train until you fly and literally sign, extra medical stuff, take the picture - football is a professional like anything else.
I think because some players have sulked in past like berbatov we expect everyone to go Awol when a deal is on cards but they are an exception.

Thing is that he didn't have a great game, but still set up one goal and won a penalty. I'll take that, considering he was losing the ball in the right areas of the field and not immediately in front of his goalie. On a number of occasions when he did lose it, he was was the first one there trying to block a clearance or get it back, so has obviously got a bit of fight in him too. You could tell defenders were doubling up on him at times because of his trickery and pace, so that obviously opens up space elsewhere for others to run into.

FML, this thread has turned into a monster. It's absolutely shocking in here.
People are desperately trying to pick the bones out of the kid before he's even signed for us. Who'd be a footballer hey. I said it in the Hernandez thread and I'll say it here, this website is seemingly full of wannabe experts who most, in reality, haven't even seen a single minute of football from Clinton N'Jie and yet they've already written him off. It's embarrassing.
Read some comments from Lyon fans if you like, I couldn't give a flying crap what they think. Lyon are a selling club nowadays and that's not likely to change for a while. Their fans are used to losing their best players so have no doubt learnt how to detach themselves from caring about their players as they know just as they start to love them they'll be gone. I wouldn't expect them to be singing his praises anyway as he's only just broken through. Our new scouting system is clearly picking up on his potential more than anything else and see enough to want us to spend the money on him. Every signing has a risk attached to it, even when you'd consider it to be a slam dunk good deal it can go south on you, we all know this.
I've watched N'Jie play and whilst he absolutely is raw and has no doubt had some bad games, so has every single player in our current squad. The kid has clear ability and is nothing like any player we have right now.
