Evann Guessand (on loan at Crystal Palace)

[Goldenballs]

Safe to say if there are any add ons to the transfer fee, we won't be paying them.

I worked somewhere where a bloke was quitting and he dropped a log in a tupperware box and left it in the fridge. It was a better leaving present than Guessand.

[Mister E]

He was fucking awful tonight; seriously comedic.

[Smirker]

Not that I disagree with anyone, but let's say he is truly as shit as he is showing, why is Unai still playing him so much?

Lack of alternatives. McGinn can’t play every game, he’s keeping Malan fresh as an impact sub/ alternative to Watkins and he doesn’t fancy/ want to spend the money on Elliot. He’s tried Cash further forward with limited success and he’s been one of our better players this season but no natural cover, until recently, at right back.

It’s been said before but it’s a puzzle that we spent so much on him.

[usav]

Exactly as  above.  He does do the defensive dirty work well, but everything else is not good - despite the goal tonight.

On a related right-side note, was surprised Garcia didn’t get a start or some minute tonight.

Basel were at best championship level.
Guessand scored yes and thank you but he is no bottle
Get rid

[Mellin]

I don't want to have to watch him play again, to be honest. In January if some French provincial backwater comes in with 5m and asks us to pay 50% of his salary we should bloody take it.

[eamonn]

It's a real shame we spunked our summer budget on him rather than Harv. We wouldn't be pissing him around with the 10 game clause.

[CT Villan]

He is absolutely terrible with the ball at his feet, but he does cover Cash very well in transition and in our defensive shape. That must be the only reason that he keeps getting picked. It's a shame as I wanted him to be a roaring success.

[Drummond]

The manager picked him. He scored. We won.

[Brend'Watkins]

The manager picked him. He scored. We won.

Yes Drum’ thems the facts. As a player he is at this level, we’re talking lower championship level he was dreadful. Thank the lord the Afcon is starting soon.

[purpletrousers]

He’s on the reserve list so presumably that means he doesn’t go unless there’s an injury or such?

? ? ?

[Matt C]

I’m struggling to remember a player at this level who is quite so chaotic on the ball.
