Why would they be riding scooters :cool:
-
Him and Olowu became mates off the field, didn't they? Not sure we can read too much into that.

Sorry, phone playing up. With the eyes emoji. Surely not suggesting that he is coming back?
-
Probably just an old photo that he has found doubt McCann will bring him back he wasn't happy with the way the left
-
Might be more likely to go back after Louie Marsh.
-
Marsh was next to unplayable the last few u21s games in his come back for Sheffield United. On the form he showed I would be surprised if Sheff U let him go out and don't involve him themselves next season with Ollie Arblaster they have two players that could form a major part in their future plans.
-
Why not go back in for him he is a good player a youngster who was one of the very few to turn up the first half of the season, without him and Ironside scoring a few goals we would have been rock bottom at Christmas, and quite a few of those goals got us the odd points against the run of play as most teams over ran our midfield and back line.

The stats I’ve seen show 7 appearances, but no league goals.

Most people on here weren’t happy with the way McCann left but they got over it. People make mistakes, they grow up and move on. I’d have Faal back if GM thought he would be useful. He’s a good player.
Wiki says 7 goals in 25 league games for us. 6 in 20 for Walsall.
-
I’d take him back as a permanent but not a loan as we can do better
-
2+2=5 here I think. He's clearly mates with Oluwu nothing more.
Why would he come back here? He didn't want to be here 4 months ago so that won't change. His next move should really be league 1. He did really well in two poor performing sides in his first season in pro football.
-
More chance of us signing Mo Farah... Not hard to infer Grants thoughts about how his loan spell ended here
-
Yes, probably nothing in it, like 99% of rumours.
But people and circumstances do change. So it’s conceivable he realised being back in the W Mids isn’t that important compared to joining a team who might win stuff.
We moaned when he left because he’s a good player. Plenty have left us who we’ve not been bothered about.
-
If he came back it would be cover for Ironside I imagine. He doesn’t fit in to how Grant prefers to play and on the occasion we switch to a 3-5-2 it’d be better to have Miller partnering Ironside.
-
It's a no from me (even if it's just speculation). He's ponderous and clumsy and slows our attacks. He'd be behind Ironside, Miller, Hurst, Moly and Gibson in forward line. It'd be a waste of a loan place and money.
-
It’s a no from me, stopped trying 3 weeks before he left, that suggests a bad attitude
-
Mo will have a good career. He will far exceed L2.

Similar to Haks then
-
I really don't think McCann would want him back. As for Faal himself, good player with excellent close control, but, in my opinion his languid style will prevent him playing higher than league 1.
-
I've found someone much better than Mo Faal anyway:

He is good.

I’m sure we’ve all taken our foot off of the gas for three weeks in our career.
It doesn’t define what you will become!
-
Personally I wouldn't go back there. Did ok while he was here, I have got no issues about him going elsewhere. One of the only ones who gave him a clap in our area on his return.
I think Miller will give as good of a goal return if not better. I also think Max Biammo was a much better player and we didn't offer him a deal. Part of me wondering if they are still in contact with MB or if that's over.
I do think we need another forward but no chance it's Faal IMO, we will either be aiming higher or backing Miller/Goodman to make the squad on a regular basis and contribute.
-
I liked Biamou. Thought he was something different and had a real touch of class. Wonder what it was - money, fitness, age?

Apparently it was his injuries record.
-
It Max can get himself back in the frame I’d be happy with him. A very good player
-
There was a quote from Max, when he signed his short term deal, that he wasn’t the best ‘trainer’. Imho, that probably had something to do with the injury he got and is why we didn’t offer him something.
Having said that, I liked watching him when he did play and he was ‘different’ to both Ironside and Miller. If it’s not to be Max then it does need to be someone that’s a carbon copy of him. Maybe someone a bit younger?
-
As someone else suggested maybe we are waiting to see how he goes in pre season, GM said in one of his interviews that Maxs injury would be OK for pre season but didn't say whether that would be with us
-
I can definitely see why we didn’t jump in and offer him something. Is he training with us? I’d rather we give him a pre-season and see how he gets on.
-
I have a feeling Biamou will start pre season with us with a view to earning a deal. I hope so anyway, I thought he looked very useful every time he played.

Scored opener tonight for West Brom. Looks like he is going to get a shot this season in their first team squad.

was on the bench on Saturday but never came on
-
Not really bothered.....is anyone? :chair:
-
Nope,
We can now talk about our own goal scorers…
-
We've got far better attacking players in our team now!
-
He burnt his boats big time with GM, not the sort to forgive stupidity.
-
Mo Faal or Jordan Gibson
Mo Faal or Joe Ironside
Mo Faal or Billy Sharp
Mo Faal or Luke whatshisname
That’s that then int it
-
When the going got tough, did he get going? Yes, he ran away.
-
Which is different to Mansfield away, when he didn't run back!
-
I'm hearing we've done a deal with West Brom for the lad .
WBA are paying us to buy Callum Styles plus Faal coming to Oakwell .

Would this be to play with Cosgrove?
Mo likes to drop to link midfield and attack so I’m not sure that would work.

Plus his first touch ends up being a tackle for a team mate.

What in the world is happening when we have become a feeder team for them.
We are clearly finding the right talen, we’ve got to get out of this league.

I saw him for Rovers when you played Everton last season and thought he caused Everton quite a few problems .
He's a typical Barnsley signing , a bit raw and needs developing and hoping to sell him on for a decent profit if he develops
-
Why are people still talking about this bloke? He was a decent player whilst on loan with us, and then left with an apparently childish mardy attitude.
F*ck him, we move on.
-
Off to Wrexham I think.
-
Going to Wrexham on a 3year deal it is reported
-
Deal to Wrexham confirmed 500 thousand
-
I think if the lad knuckles down, he’ll have a good career ! But know there’s been talk of loyalty on here about him, however he was only on loan and probably badly advised !
-
I think as soon as things get tough for Wrexham, either this season or if they go up and the fans start to turn, he won't be able to hack it. Dummy will go and he won't turn up.
He might have the skill but lacks the attitude
-
Well, I'm sure he won't have any regrets now anyway. He'll believe he made the right move away from us, and who could argue with him now?
He'll have no choice other than to throw himself full on to the Wrexham bandwagon. He'll face stiff competition for a shirt so he'll know he'll have to perform to stay onside with the fans.
It will be interesting to watch his progress.
-

Yep , Callum Styles went to WBA as I was told but Darrell Clarke didn't want Faal coming to Barnsley as part of the deal and blocked it .
May have dodged a bullet , time will tell I suppose .
-
I think WBA have seen Wrexham coming!

Icant see the fans turning tbh. If you watch the documentary what is going on there is pretty special imo. The 2 yanks have been very very clever in sticking to the plan of it all about the fans and the local area. The public of Wrexham have turned up and filled the ground as they are all pulling in the same direction. Id be shocked if they get past the championship and it will be interesting to see what happens after 2 or 3 seasons of mid table at best and relegation battles. For those who haven't watched the documentary I'd recommend it. Changed my opinion on what's happened there. I bet 99 out of 100 fans wish it was them who they bought as they seem good owners.
-
Mo will suit their style of play
He didn’t have the energy for ours at times
