Cheeta Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 13 hours ago, Unnamed Trialist said: Obviously if they were offered that they should go for it, West Ham is playing well and is competitive so it is not like he'll be under huge pressure for results from day one. he could transition in. They are not even really that starved for goals, seems like their defense needs more help. Apart from what it would mean for his salary. I didn't have DAZN until two weeks ago--when Movistar miraculously included 2 channels in their cable package, no extra charge, basically no strings attached. I am a bit surprised, frankly, but it now means I get EPL. Oh, you lucky bastard. The #1 Nephew got it for football (Britball & NFL) and discovered he has an appetite for snooker. I never thought I'd live to see the day when I'd be talking to anyone about seeing Ronnie O'Sullivan's 1,000th century and they weren't looking at me like I had two heads. ray 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We get maximum hours of snooker in Europe with Eurosport, pretty well every tournament. I recall a trip to London in the early 80s, decided to go to Brixton, where of course there was absolutely no sign of the previous year's social tension at all despite news hype and punk mythologies. But it was spring and the pubs were full of people watching the World Championship at the Crucible on tv. I think the Canadian equivalent is people watching the Brier, which I am sure foreigners find very odd. narduch and johnyb 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narduch Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 If you have the Athletic they did a piece on Larin. Looks like a move to EPL may be inevitable at this point. johnyb, sebdeserio, CanadianSoccerFan and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saladroit Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 definitely worth the read if you have the athletic (which honestly is worth it at this point imo) but here's the key transfer details Quote A source confirmed reports out of Turkey that West Brom made an offer to buy Larin in this window. Besiktas rejected the offer as they look to win the league this season, but it bodes well for Larin’s opportunities in the summer if he keeps scoring. Teams in France’s Ligue 1 have also reportedly made transfer bids in this window. “I’ve actually had a couple Premier League clubs and one Championship club I’ve spoke to about Cyle and I’ve told them it might be the perfect time to get him,” Adrian Heath said.

CanadianSoccerFan Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Paul Tenorio also clarified in the comments that Larin would automatically qualify for a UK work permit by virtue of playing 70% of the minutes in a band 2 league as defined by the FA's new regs. btw, the Athletic is totally worth it johnyb and saladroit 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will be relegated at the end of the season, and Allardyce will be gone. Depending on the manager who replaces him, you'd have to think they'll immediately be favourites to get promoted right back to the Premier League the following season. If I'm Larin, I don't rish into that move, but I give it strong consideration, if his goal is to play in the Premier League some day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a guy that just had a 2.5M sell on clause last year and while he’s had a good year he’s not lighting the world on fire. Turkish websites are notorious for BS.

Just curious, what more would he need to do to transcend "good year" and reach the "lighting the world on fire" category? He's been kept off the scoresheet for a few games now, but what is your metric at this stage of the season? 15 goals? 20 goals? If scoring 12 league goals to date is not lighting the world on fire (Turkish world, I guess), it has to be pretty close, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If scoring 12 league goals to date is not lighting the world on fire (Turkish world, I guess), it has to be pretty close, no? Lighting the world on fire would be 20-25+ imo. If he reached 15 I would be delighted. Wouldn't be a surprise if they rated him at 10-15m to sell now. Would also expect they would have accepted a bid of 15m. Could just be that they hadn't seen the best of him until now and actually see higher potential than they obviously did a year or so ago and wanted to keep him. I sometimes forget his age, still has a good 3 or so years before he hits his peak. Either way I hope he stays put if he is in the team. The premier league is a vacuum, especially for a lower team. If he doesn't make instant impact it could be a career stomper. That said a year in the championship would be ok. Challenging for the league title and European football in Turkey is better for him at this point imo. costarg and CanadaFan123 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VinceA Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 Larin would have a horrible time at West Brom. Don't really want a guy who needs a system to suit him to be plonked into a regular relegation candidate. Obinna 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
