    Should be looking to break our transfer record tbh. Ridiculous fees and wages are getting spent on worse footballers.

    25-30 million and use it on first team ready players who will improve us.

    They signed Keane Lewis Potter who's a few months younger than Kuhn for 20 mill..

    Didn't have any of the academy pedigree Kuhn had with scoring and poty at Leipzig academy for example. Had no big game experience. Kuhn has done it on the biggest stage, in the knockouts as well. Doesn't have the elite level speed or close feet of Kuhn..

    Looks like he's done just about ok..

    For what HE CAN produce when on it, he's worth 30 mill in that over inflated market..

    Not read the thread, but if it's to sell him, then do it.
    Fantastic talent, with a stinking attitude.
    Other players willing to fight for the jersey, so he can * off as far as I'm concerned.

    Aye I’m fine with him going. Will take effort over talent all day. He turns it on when he wants and that’s just not gonna work for me. You look at Maeda and the effort he puts in…Kuhn has more talent but I would take Maeda every day of the week over him. We get 20 mill, and invest it wisely and it’s been a great bit of business.

    That’s similar to where I’ve landed with him. Now is the opportune time to punt him. The thing for me, I watched him against RBL, who had let him go saying would never be good enough who he definitely had a grudge with. We went 1-0 down, and by * Kuhn would not allow that to be allowed. He was showing for everything, was direct, terrorising them, worked his hard off and made sure to take over that game.


    And every other game when we’re needing someone to stand up, and he can win games himself with his ability, but he hides then. Can’t be arsed to make sure. And that for me, I can’t stand that.

    Easy lazy comparison but Jota under Ange? Every game I can remember when he was poor, not quite working, he’d score or assist for a crucial goal. Because he’d * make sure when under pressure or it not going his way, he would make a difference, playing poor or not.


    Mostly against Aberdeen thinking bout that for Jota examples :56:

    On his day he was sensational for us. His day wasn't often enough tho.

    Would take the money for him if it was decent and if he was going to be properly replaced.

    Can't sell him, wingers scoring the volume of goals he did on our budget are extremely hard to come by, a double against top opposition in Leipzig and Bayern (aye I'm counting his goal at Celtic Park) too, electric speed, needs to learn how to turn up against the huns more often but a player I'd be very disappointed to see leave

    Tbf he carried us attack wise for most of the 1st half of the season. After Bayern he slacked off but a few players did.

    I'd sell him for a good offer (£20m+) but his numbers last season speaks volumes his contributoon . He really was great that first half and into early this year.

    I think maintaining that level was always gonna be hard. What annoyed me more was his visible lack of effort at times.

    His numbers are great but myself like many of you don't see him as a great fit here, be it attitude or desire to play in top 5 league or whatever. He might be the coolest guy on the -planet but I've just never been taken with him and if we could get north of 20mill for him and use that cash to bring in 3 of the wingers we've been linked with this week then I'd go for it.

    He won't be easy to replace despite his drop off in form. His pace was a big reason we did well in Europe

    Looks like waiting for Nygren in before punting then..

    Oh well..

    Would've preferred Nygren more centrally and Another winger in next to Kuhn. We'll absolutely need another right winger as Yang isn't the answer and Forrest is getting on..

    Yep. Massively why we competed with his and Maeda's pace frightening sides going the other way..

    Still, his attitude won't be missed..

    Same article says we are using Nygren as an attacking midfielder
