Convict Colony

Thanks for the update, am ok with Dave in a different role he seems to have it anyway so that was maybe diluting his effectiveness as goalkeeping coach. Now thatwe have sparkes he can focus 100% on the club's keepers etc it can only be a good thing.

he also follows Gunn and Southampton on twitter and Jaidi

Yeah especially when Mark Hughes gets signed up

At least he starts tonight [emoji108]

Sparkes just put on his twitter he's leaving south africa and heading home to england

They promised him last summer he could go this summer - think some big teams were sniffing but i don't think he'll go there (Bayern etc) just as a gut feel. Wouldn't surprise me if he ended up staying or going to a big club not in champs league -Man U/Milan etc

Am just watching Tunisa do a us v Angola, score early and then sit back. Then the next game ;-)

hahahaha exactly. Ziyech will be on his way if they have any suitors after the Afcon so he will replace him I think.

Quincy Primes just joined Ajax

Enjoyed his appearance, he made a chance within 60 secs and about 2 more in 5mins. Beat people with ease and seemed to be closing down the defenders well. He had some nice link up play with the left back and ziyech. He still had his "when I beat 3 players I'm gonna have a strike for a worldy effort" but all in all he looked the most dangerous player on the pitch. Namibia were hard to break down, think morrocco a little rusty, will be interesting to watch Mali tomorrow night. Also whoever thought to play the afcon in Egypt in summer needs to be shot.

Sweet I'll be watching that

Someone about 2 weeks ago said on here Bertrand wasn't a fan of Ralph's meritocracy when it came to picking players on form rather than rep (my interpretation) for the team Might of been manji

Mali kick off Mon night in cup v Mauritania - FYI

Agree but maybe that's changing if we get a rapid cb

I Know I saw bowen when he played for Hereford united (now FC rip)as I used to go to the mighty edgar street a fair bit on visits home. Obviously I can't remember a single thing about him from the few matches he came on for.

Amigo they are saying Djenepo will be on the left wing with redder probably in the centre with another forward so we need someone on the right unless he puts the Bouf over there.

hahaha bro we go through this everytime someone goes for a spanish or portugese player. They have to have these release clauses in their contracts legally over there - it doesn't mean that is the value (hence some crazy ones in the portugese especially) they have to sell at but it is the value which triggers the ability of the footballer to negotiate and then pay the fee to release himself from the contract, the club can sell at whatever price they want. He's probably available to sell for above what west ham offered and they are expecting this offer and the lure of premier league wages to be enough to get it through.

scouting report from france: https://passearasgar.blogspot.com/2019/05/scouting-moussa-djenepo-standard-liege.html Despite being fourth in the Belgian league championship playoff , Standard Liège, whose coach is Michel Preud'homme, former Benfica goalkeeper, has in his ranks one of the most valuable and desirable players in all Belgian football: Moussa Djenepo . Launched by Ricardo Sá Pinto last season, the 20-year-old Malian international began at the training camp of the Yeelen Olympique Malians, having arrived in Belgium in 2016/2017 to join the youth squad of Standard Liège and from there a small step up to the main team of the Stade Maurice Dufrasne emblem. International for the Mali National Team on 9 occasions and with a goal scored by his selection in this year's African Nations Cup Qualifying Round, Moussa Djenepo is a striker who can play as either an extreme left-back, right-footed or a second- but feels more comfortable playing on the left flank, coming in and progressing. He has a good shot, although sometimes he does not set the goals well, he is a player who works hard for his team, is always very focused and has as great quality of the explosion and the ease of overtaking opponents in situations one to one . Playing in the attack, Djenepo creates a lot of goals, but he also knows how to score them, revealing a good finishing ability, as the 11 goals in 38 matches by Standard Liège prove.TransferMarkt , Moussa Djenepo, at the age of 20, already has some big championship clubs behind him, including Sporting Clube de Portugal, to secure their contract for the next season. Whatever club you are in, Moussa Djenepo will be more of a quality player to follow closely in the upcoming season

Are we opening a goalkeeping academy [emoji2369][emoji2369]

I hope that's because it's not picking you based on your name but your training field performance

Watch him do a cruciate in his first game for Mali now

just out of interest apart from the accountancy lessons what points are trying to prove about Gao ? It seems accepted he took out a loan to be able to buy us and he has no intention of investing what he could under ffp into the club each year.

"After spending the whole of the second half of last season in the reserves because he refused to sign a new contract, Adrian Rabiot could end up renewing with PSG because no other top club wants to sign him on a free." hahaahaa that would be embrassing, i see man u linked but he is a prima donna even for psg.
