Transfer Wishlist

Yeah, might be a tough one to pull off though. Bayern seem to have a fixation for him. They’re even talking about it publicly.
Might have to look elsewhere.

He is a generational talent. As he is German, absolutely to be expected that Bayern will want him…he could excel with us though. I say go all out for him.

Wirtz would be better

Nah, you just picked the dumbest post to try that shit with.

It’s pretty obvious I was referring to the fact they play similar positions and would potentially occupy the same spaces. That would be the basis for having that view. It could also end up being incorrect, of course.

It’s not the same as making a definitive claim about something that happened despite not having any or minimal concrete evidence to support such a claim.

E.g. If someone said Arteta didn’t sign anyone because he is unambitious, you could very fairly ask for that person to provide evidence that that is the case as opposed to a mix of things like the club not making funds available, the explicit details of any discussions with potential signings that may have been had etc etc.

It’s not a ‘subjective’ view to say x happened because of y reason. That is an objective statement and you would need evidence in that case.

This is why I’ve dunked on you consistently on every iteration of this forum for the best part of 10 years. You need to take a break and have a long, hard think about whether you really wanna keep trying to go toe-to-toe with the GOAT of OA.

On what definition are you making that base assumption though? What metric are you using? What would constitute not working and working? How did you put your hypothesis to test?
Did you consider their Euros performance into consideration?

I wish you’d consider giving it a fucking rest.

It’s a regular football conversation. Bavin made a claim. I am just curious as to how he can justify it.

My last visit in the ‘Transfer wishlist’ thread was in October 2019. What have I missed?

Nothing. We signed every player people identified.

You’re so clueless bro, I would never ever want either of those two.

'kin hell, GC :laughing:

First question doesn’t even make sense lol second and third question: it would likely be not producing the same or relatively similar contributions as either player would when playing solely in their preferred role, with added consideration given for the relevent context.

No, the Euros have not been considered because the sample size is small and the contextual difference is too high to be relevant.

See, it’s actually quite easy to answer questions surrounding how a point of view is justified and, surprisingly, it doesn’t automatically require the poster to cry about it and make poor attempts at parody to avoid doing so.

I regret using that function :grimacing: Some of the players we thought were a good signing back in 20-21… :face_with_peeking_eye: Yes I also thought Coutinho on loan would be a good deal then. Even Maupay. I feel dirty.

There are receipts for Cantwell too.

The accuracy

You are just rephrasing your initial claim - you need to give me some measurable inferences. You can ideally do so by finding examples of past instances of players playing in similar role/occupying similar space and not faring well.
Mind you, if you do that, you need to be fair and compare your results with past instances of players playing in similar role/occupying similar space and faring well.

See, how easy it is to poke holes in a point of view when it is not backed with an evidence. There is a way to gather evidence but you decided to skip all the steps to make a claim.

TIll how many games count as small sample size? How do you define that?

Nah, I’m giving a subjective view, so I can base it on whatever I want. You could give some reasons why my basis might not be suitable, but you haven’t.

Perhaps you might make your first meaningful contribution to this forum if you did?

Odd you think a subjective view doesn’t need to be backed when you have always attacked posters for the same. Immense Hypocrisy.

I did back it up, I very clearly gave my reasoning for why I feel the way I do and you provided no reason for me to reconsider that position.

I already detailed why there’s a difference between an objective claim such as why x or y event happened and a subjective one like someone’s view on a particular player. You ignored that completely to continue your dire attempt at parody.

I’m a very regular poster here as you very well know, so if you think I am displaying such hypocritical and abhorrent behaviour, then why not just put me on ignore?
