What's new

I think we should swap Soldado for Snejder

well we seem to have been linked to him since before Baldini was at the club so I suspect it was something from Levy's moneyball stats and he'd been on our radar for sometime

I tend to think AVB maybe didn't select him due to his tactics being so isolating to Soldado

Baldini probably had influence in making the deal happen but I doubt it was his suggestion solely anyway as I recall him being on our radar for a good while before Baldini came in
Nah , it was panic buy

no reason to delete it mate its all good for the sake of discussion and I completely understand any fans frustration that he's not hit the ground running after we paid so much
Yeah mate , i will try to be more optimistic and i still think we can win the league in easy if Soldado is on fire

Definitely give him time and definitely don't swap him for another midfielder, think we have enough of them for now to put it mildly

Ok guys , i will be the biggest Soldado fan , only if he doesn't miss these 100 % situations , i am sorry but this isn't acceptable for his caliber of player after all !!

Perhaps the fact that he is totally unsuited to be a lone striker in the PL hasn't helped !

Compare his strengths/weakness against any PL lone striker you rate and he doesn't look too good.
Hang on minute here.
Any lone striker playing in the AVB system would look out of sorts.
Fancy checking Benteke stats for this season.
Judge him over the next few months, now that we have loosened the shackles.
