He might have been useful in the league he came from but, the Prem is beyond him. A complete waste of money.

Lots of positive comments after our win last week, lots of comments saying he's shit and will never make it after defeat this week.

Maybe David O Leary was right.

For £30m I was expecting a bit more than nuisance value as an attribute and I'm not sure he's that convincing even in the nuisance department. Agree he needs time to settle but so far he's reminding me of Martin Carruthers.

I really want him to succeed.

I refuse to believe he's as bad as people think he is considering Unai persists with him, we have options to replace him so why keep playing him? Unai must have seen something.

You see snippets that make you think there’s something there. The rest of it, what is he doing there. We should have saved our money and kept Philogene.

Philogene was miles off it in the PL. Combine Guessand's physicality with Philogene's skills and you would have a PL standard player.

The positive is that he does the defensive side well

But other than that I see nothing. He looks like he's never played in the position we're asking him to play. It's noticeable that the other players seem a bit reluctant to give him the ball.

Anyway, let's give him 12 months before we write him off completely.

£30m doesn’t get you much these days.

I think Guessand is struggling partly because he was the only money signing, had he been one of 3 £30m players in the window he would have had time to settle. 

Think he definitely has ability & will be coached to use his strength more, but he certainly doesn’t appear to have much pace which particularly in games like last night when the recent recipe to beat them has been long ball, channels and pace was an issue.

Sancho and Elliott have also been a huge disappointment thus far to be fair to Guessand.

Rashford, Asensio and Bailey vs Elliott, Sancho & Guessand is so far a big big downgrade without even considering Ramsey! but all 3 have time to come good.

I'm prepared to stick with Guessand because he's handsome enough to play for us. I will not entertain people called Harvey who look like squashed mobile phone salesmen.

Perhaps he hasn’t earnt it? Or perhaps Unai hasn’t picked him because he doesn’t want him? who knows but the short times he has been on the field he has been no better than Guessand
