I agree. He just doesn’t suit our system.I can’t even lie, I would be happy to see the back of this guy. When he came on against United the drop in quality on the ball from Sarr and Bissouma to him was so striking. His touch is almost never positive, it’s always a wooden touch that means he can shield the ball if he’s pressed because that’s the only way he can defend against that, hardly ever on the half turn, hardly ever out of his feet to get us quickly on the front foot. His contribution to the game was a good turn out wide, inviting pressure because of how poor he is on the ball compared to Sarr and Bissouma, then a near back pass assist to United because once again he panicked on the ball. Give Don Paratici the 30-40m we get for him and tell him two more Pape Sarr’s please!
If we can get the right money for him I just hope it’s invested properly. In theory if he does go and 2-3 more go we should have huge money to spend on a quality forward and a quality winger.
