Hey, there's The Fountain. I think it barely sneaks in under the definition of "Hotel", mind - not sure Bergwijn would survive the noise.
Agree, especially on DM - I cannot fathom how poch and now Jose may pass over a transfer window without addressing what is a very obvious gaping hole in our team..
What does he say in his Instagram video from the hotel bed? Any Dutch speakers here?
It's been translated various time since it was posted. Go back a few pages and you'll see the posts.
So tomorrow we can expect a new signing. PSV coach confirmed he’s off to London to sign
This thread actually makes more sense if you read it page by page backwards...
Think the point is that Lo Celso, Winks, Fernandes and Ndombele are CMs. Whereas Bergwijn is a wide forward so he will only be competing with Alli, Son, Lamela and Moura
There's always a hiatus but to be fair I'm not sure this was even on the cards last week so if we complete this week that's pretty smooth. The exception to prove the no doubt as it don't happen often.Jesus, why is never easy with us?
Looks like he’s happy to pass. We’ve got too many final third players who want to shift and shoot JD style, this would add another dimension to our play.
It feels to me like the manager gave the player permission to be away from the squad and the club hierarchy is throwing a strop because the club was publicly embarrassed by his surprise exclusion from the matchday squad. Hard to say without knowing what took place behind the scenes but the manager has been clear that he had given the player his okay, so hopefully cooler heads will eventually prevail and whatever damage has been done to the CEO's ego won't scupper the deal.As far as I've seen it, chronologically:
- PSV said we had made an offer
- PSV left him out of the squad
- Dutch media said he's refused to play and has absconded prematurely to London
- Player posted a video from a London Hotel saying he's done everything as expected and is a bit confused about the backlash
- PSV manager confirmed he said the player could go over to London to sign for us
- Some PSV bigwig has said that there's been no offer and no reason for Bergwijn to be here.
Seems like literally no one involved knows what's going on.
Someone posted earlier they thought he looked like Son but got his head up to see the pass, someone else said Son was better but I get what the poster means when you see the videoLooks like he’s happy to pass. We’ve got too many final third players who want to shift and shoot JD style, this would add another dimension to our play.
