Robbored Posted July 18, 2018 Report Share Posted July 18, 2018 35 minutes ago, Phileas Fogg said: Let me explain then - the purpose of this sub forum (the one named Transfer Forum) is for rumours and general ‘wild speculation’. Probably not suitable for someone with your attitude towards ‘wild speculation’. If said rumours become official - ie on the OS - they are then transferred to the main forum (the one named Football Chat), I’ve left some examples below for your reference. That would be more suitable for someone with your attitude towards ‘wild speculation’. Two rumours that materialised. Two out of numerous other rumours that were forgotten. Thats why I take no notice of unproven wild speculation and unfounded conjecture. When it's on the OS I know it's actually fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I’ve explained how both forums work, why does one continue to use this sub forum when you’ve made it quite clear you think none of the content here is useful?

Lots of players have been seen around AG but who never signed for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your logic really is several sandwiches short of a picnic. Surely a player being spotted at a ground makes it somewhat more substantiated speculation? You seem to live in a very black and white world - it's either fantasy speculation or truth. You seem to have no room for that grey medium of informed speculation.

Pisano The God Posted July 22, 2018 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2018 If Eisa reports are true: Think he will be aloud to leave for abit under what we want. No need to keep him and will free up wages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redpole Posted July 22, 2018 Report Share Posted July 22, 2018 If he was in LJ’s plans he would have come on when Taylor got injured as LJ said he wants to play strong teams now. As he only got 10mins at the end I can only see him being on his way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoons Posted July 22, 2018 Report Share Posted July 22, 2018 Am I the only one who would pick a fit duric as a starter in the team? Him up front with either Wieman, Taylor or fammy would be good for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan_BCFC Posted July 22, 2018 Report Share Posted July 22, 2018 We need to keep hold of Djuric, I don’t see another striker in our squad who can play to his strengths? Great option to have off the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wins 95% of the ball and actually finds a man with it as well. He's an intelligent player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redshorts Posted July 22, 2018 Report Share Posted July 22, 2018 I say play him up top and let others make the runs off him! Very intelligent player who can hold the ball up and bring others into the game. Hardly ever loses a header. Not a goal scorer but can do what a Giroud done for France and help others in the team and create chances. 100 percent keep him. Especially with the pace we have in team now.

RedRock Posted July 22, 2018 Report Share Posted July 22, 2018 Just watched him bury that goal in the trading vid. Got to keep him. Nothing less than £10 mill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robin_unreliant Posted July 22, 2018 Report Share Posted July 22, 2018 I like Djuric but am not sure his strengths fit with the style LJ wants. He's more of a Plan B, off the bench option. I think that may be partly why he wants to go. Would be interested to know what our results have been in games where he started. From memory I don't think the stats would be too good. It encourages us to play long ball which isn't what LJ wants. It reminds me of watching Sheff Wed with Nuhiu up front - not pretty to watch. Would like him to stay as a Plan B option but wouldn't blame him if he wants to go somewhere that he can be a starter every week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cidered abroad Posted July 22, 2018 Report Share Posted July 22, 2018 I don't understand why so many appear to want Djuric gone. He's a very useful target man who gets a reasonable share of goals and we've spent over a year sorting out his groin problems. One wouldn't play the Open Golf without a sand iron so why get rid of our only typical target man? I don't see Fammy as the same type. Unless of course it is Milan who wants to go.

Agreed , unless the Italians pay proper money not worth doing , in the snippets from Marbella he looks very sharp and at it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hertsexile Posted July 23, 2018 Report Share Posted July 23, 2018 Always put in a shift and scored fair share of goals not the fastest. But caused problems for championship defenders with his hold up play so worth hanging onto. Not to be let go on the cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
