I was just going to say Apter. I think there will already be Championship sides interested in Dembele now..He's no longer under the radar. (I hope I'm wrong)
Celtic and Brest have not worked for him, so I think we are probably the only club he has, flourished at.
Yes but he's dead, so not a solution unfortunately!
He's destined to be a decent Championship player, of that I have no doubt. He's still young and learning so has lacked consistency but then again he's been in a team that goes from the sublime to the ridiculous.
I think he's been over played. At the risk of repetition, I can't understand why so many people said we don't need Apter cos we've got Dembele. Meaning Dembele plays every game 90 minutes and we have nobody to rotate him with. Then hey presto we bench him on Saturday and he comes on and changes and wins the game. He's a young lad who needs using in bursts. That's what Critch normally does with young lads, but I guess he had to justify loaning Apter out!
WHAT you talking about WIZARD?!
If he’s better why isn’t he here starting games for us instead of Tranmere?
Has anybody said he's better than Dembele? Or are you just being a snarky ba stard?
His future for me will be in Championship.
Why not?
From what I've heard Apter is a bit of a lad and Critchley doesn't really like that sort of swagger and attitude
Like Gaz and Jerry you mean? What I see of Apter he looks like someone who lives playing football and totally believes in himself, and runs at defenders for 90 minutes. Let's get rid!
I'd argue that the way we play has hampered him so much.
I don't want him to go, I want him to play
It surprised me also, I nabbed the stats, so presume they are accurate. The truth is he causes team so many issues, goals/assists don't also show the full picture. I hope he starts tomorrow night.
I don't think you can know that really. Unless Critch has said so. Sounds a bit like anti Critch guess work tbh, Phil.
Of course its guess work i haven't spoken to Critchley about his plans but Critchley doesn't play him and it's not like we have a load of good wide men is it?
What you talking about Willis
I know but I think it's probably a seniority thing with Critch. He signs the likes of CJ, Dembele, Dale, Gabriel etc all for good money and struggles to play home grown low paid lads instead. And I reckon Apter was desperate to get back to Tranmere and that was a factor too. He knows he's going to get games there, in a position he likes playing. I'm not sure he's ever played that position for us? I think he will play for us next season. He will be factored into the squad calculations. He wasn't last summer, but there's a very strong case for including him next time.
I think those stats need a bit more analysis. How many games played away in a team that played awfully as a whole, for example?
And, sadly, now deceased.
While Joseph is undoubtedly a key figure in all this, Dembele has undoubtedly been the most inventive figure to feature in the squad since his arrival - and by some distance. Personally, if push came to shove, I'd be looking to pay a king's ransom to try and secure secure his services.
How could he. He's not been constantly good on lge2 or lower. He's having a decent spell at the minute. If he could do what Dembele is doing he'd be here doing it
What you taking ‘bout Willis..?
Because Sadler will be making money on the loan Bob it is called lining Sadlers Pocket trust me.Apter is ready for our first team yet Quich thinks that he is not just like Quitch is a poor Coach bur unfortunately it appears that we are stuck with him for the time being things need to change quickly at the club other wise we are in a world of trouble watch this space. Trust me.hope you are keeping well Bob me old china.
All well and good thanks mate.
A lot more than we would ever be willing to pay.
Hmm….. not sure about that, but would love to be proved wrong!
Well for our midfield that seems to be a prerequisite at times!!
He is still struggling to complete 90 mins having been used as a super sub at his former club, still great to see him on the hallowed turf. Hopefully we go up and stump up the cash to buy him they are looking to sell and we are the shop window.
Midfielder required. Small and immobile. Dead or alive.
Tranmere are demonstrating what a run of games in the right position is doing for his confidence, under a manager who actually encourages exciting players to get forward. He will never shine under safety first Critchley, played at right back.
He won't play him at right back. Be reasonable!
