Tore is a right winger. He played on the right 18 times last season. Can he play on the left if we have injuries? Sure. But if we sign him, it'll be to play RW.

And he has played a **** load on the left prior to this season.

He's been signed to play as an attacking midfielder. Let go of positions, it's not the way it's going to be next season.

I feel sorry for ITK's the only thing they get wrong is forgetting that when they post something on here there is a large amount of members who have no business savvy at all and do not build in the hurdles that have to be jumped and many times fail to be jumped in order for deals to be done. Many times things can be on the verge of signed and sealed only to be cut down dead at the very last minute due to all sorts of reasons.The other factor which the owners get slagged off for is trying to shop for players from the top clubs where there is a pecking order and we are trying to push in on it and don't at the moment have the carrot (CL) to get them to sign, which is frustrating from their point of view as they probably feel they are a couple of top players short of that target.

Patience all round from top to bottom me feels.

Tore is a good player. Positives: Dribblings,crossing, ball-control, passes, vision and long-shooting skill, huge potential.
Negatives: Not stable, sometimes he disappearing. Defensive skills.
He plays both sides, better on right side.I read some comments about him, he is a nice guy not 'pure crazy'. :D
As a Besiktas fan, i don't want to lose him. One year later we can sell him for higher price.

Thors - is it Sofiane or Tore? Or both?

Tore's the one I want.

I could see us targeting both, with Moses returning to Chelsea, as well as we appear to be trying to offload EV.

Anything?

What's Tore's favourite ice cream flavour?

(Couldn't resist)

On a serious note - do you think Tore will suit the premier league?

The Swiss v Belgium friendly is on ESPN2 in the US. I turned it on just to watch Batasuayi (and learn how to say his name!)

I watched it. Learnt nothing about either of them.

Switzerland are decent though.

Looking forward to this playoff final. That Odubajo is a good player, I'd be looking at him if Hull fail.

Payet says it's 'very likely' that he'll be here next season. I hope that was made less enthusiastic by translation!
