    But he’s absolute shyte. I know this because WFC fans watched him for five minutes and were satisfied they’d seen enough.

    The fact he can’t get in the lyon starting 11 doesn’t mean much, he’s behind Depay who has been unbelievable this season and Fekir who was supposed to be going to Liverpool for a ridiculous fee in the summer.
    Bit of a different situation then he would have at Watford.

    Exactly Which would be beneficial to Watford if in fact we are trying to sign him.

    It was Gareth Hunt that used to shake the beans in a suggestive manner I think - for a while me and mates would refer to people as a 'Gareth' instead of a ****a

    People, we've screwed this up royally.

    Sharon & Gareth were the Gold Blend couple.

    Gold as in Golden Boys!

    You can virtually see the sexual tension in this one:

    I wouldn’t be surprised if Palarse fans don’t call ******* Gareth.

    Quite unfairly.

    he's not from France, or Italy.
    He's from, the Ivory Coast..

    Please let this have legs. Whilst I think we have good depth up front (Quality can be argued in some cases) this would be an outstanding signing.

    If we are interested, now it's public, he will go to Muff for £5m more than we offer.

    He's playing for Lyon right now. Came on as a second half sub for Fekir. Currently they're losing 1-0 at home.

    I've checked and he has absolutely zero English heritage. No chance Muff would be interested.

    Like hb1, I’ve never seen him play either, but he’d be our best player by miles

    Not true.

    In WWII Britain invaded and took the place (Ivory Coast) over from the Vichy government. If we were Chelsea or Arsenal no doubt that'd be good enough to make him home grown.

    Speak for yourself. I've been watching him since his debut for FC Metz U19.

    Couldn’t agree more
    I think he would be an excellent addition, pereyra has quality on the left but we lack someone who can offer that pace and drive on that side. (Minus penaranda but feel he will take a while to get going, Woking was his first competitive game in 12 months and you could hardly call it competitive)
    Could also argue it would be more suitable to move deulofeu outwide and play this guy through the middle.
    He is also a player that has potential to be worth double his price tag in a few years

    He picked up a serious injury in his last game for Lyon. Crushed nuts apparently

    An injury like that is no big deal. Over a career he’ll pick up hundreds and thousands.

    Psychologically it may be. His confidence will be wafer thin.

    I believe you are correct keighley. That's Anthony Head, latterly of Buffy and Little Britain fame. Gareth Hunt was the previous Nescafe bloke.. with Diane Keen and Una Stubbs and no sexual tension.

    Looks like they did the right thing in taking that useless fekir off - ended up a 1-1 draw.

    It'll be nice to see Deeney keep someone else out of the team, but surely we could find someone less expensive?.

    He's a right winger first and foremost who can play striker.
