Obinna Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 What a boss. Same goes for Atiba. These guys picking up where they left off. Great to see! Makes you wonder if it's really best for him to leave for OM. Corazon, WestHamCanadianinOxford, johnyb and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Real Marc Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 (edited) 15 hours ago, narduch said: I just find that the further you get away from the top 5 leagues the worse the information gets. Agreed. The values for high profile players and leagues are usually within the realm of possibility - but that's because these values are generally ballparkable, based on publicly available media reports, contractual and club knowledge, and comparable sales. But once you start paying attention to the fluctuations - particularly the runs of momentum and the consistent overvaluing - the amateurness of the values starts to show, even at this level. Then add in all the wacky crap - clubs in nearly amateur leagues or in leagues where paid transfers are not the norm with total player values in the low millions...players that would never command a fee (or recently went on frees!) with values in the six figures...Forge's players being worth, in sum, more than many clubs in England tier 4 and some in tier 3...even the NYT article touches on not correlating influence with accuracy. It's a fabulous website. And the role of user-driven content in the scouting and player sales, including Transfermarkt and Football Manager, is fascinating. But basing values on "but Transfermarkt says..." is like judging public opinion based on what you saw on Family Feud.

WestHamCanadianinOxford Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Besiktas are seemingly close to landing Batshuayi. Interesting to see if that is with or in place of Larin. https://turkish-football.com/chelsea-striker-batshuayi-drops-transfer-hint-amid-reports-that-he-is-close-to-joining-besiktas/ TOcanadafan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheeta Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Buchanan mentioned in that TSN piece a bit about Canadians sometimes being something along the lines of "late bloomers". Not sure Larin exactly falls into that group of players but there he is. Dominic94 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larin's new strike partner (just on loan) I have been thinking that this and the Alex Teixeira move are insurance for Besiktas, and puts pressure on Larin. As his contract winds down they can sit him on the bench, now that they have reinforcements. The Real Marc and johnyb 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unnamed Trialist Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 OM just decided to loan out their Argentine striker Benedetto to Elche in La Liga, deal done last night, so that opens up more space as well for attackers. Obinna 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestHamCanadianinOxford Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 Was watching two things at once but he came on at half and made a big difference to the flow of the game. Three tough chances for him right away and Besiktas had the momentum. There were a couple things that kind of killed that. Fabrice Nsakala one of their players was taken to the hospital by ambulance but is alright it seems. And they brought their new signings on - Teixeira and Batshuayi - and they never got in sync, with Larin moved very wide left. Ended 0-0 after 10 minutes of stoppage time.

WestHamCanadianinOxford Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 Apparently back in negotiations with Besiktas over a new contract.

While Larin asked for 2 million 250 thousand Euros, Black and Whites offered 1.5 million Euros plus bonuses." https://www.fanatik.com.tr/son-dakika-besiktas-larin-ile-sozlesme-gorusmelerine-basladi-2238517 johnyb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestHamCanadianinOxford Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Turkish press saying that Beskitas rejected 6 million Euros for him from Marseille. Want 10 million. Seems risky in the last year and his stance of running it out. But maybe they really want to make a run this year in Europe? https://www.sporx.com/futbol/ekstra/cyle-larin-icin-ucuncu-retSXGLQ54495SXQ?sira=2 nolando, johnyb, Floortom and 3 others 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
