[RUMOUR] Selim Amallah

Watford set to sign Standard Liege attacking midfielder Selim Amallah. Should be complete in the coming days. Mogi Bayat (his agent) was seen at the game vs Leicester next to Gino Pozzo.

Seen on Twitter.

 

Seen this banded about a few times today. However the media that covers Standard have stated that this is not true, so who knows.

Supposedly he is decent and made for the Prem based on comments I’ve seen on various platforms. Not going to get my hopes up though until a YouTube video is posted.

 

Seems to play either attacking centre-mid or attacking left-wing. Quite two-footed. Probably a Bobby P replacement.

Scored the 2nd Liege goal in their 2-2 draw with Arsenal in the Europa League. Highlights here:

Also scored Liege's only goal in a 2-1 defeat to Eintracht Frankfurt in the EL. Vid here:

Please please please say he's better than the last left-winger we signed after they put in a good EL performance vs Arsenal.

 

This is the most complete one I could find, complete with perhaps the worst video editing I have ever seen:

 

Likely to be another where the player refuses to play for us

 

Surest sign yet that.....Oh, I don't know.

 

I really don't get these highlight reels that obsessed fans put together. Why go to all that effort to compile the clips and sandwich them together only to edit so dreadfully and make the video unwatchable? I stopped watching before the halway point FFS.

 

I see what you mean about the video. It’s really irritating and I only watched about 1 minute

 

Please let him be as good as the right-winger we signed who scored against Arsenal

 

If he’s crap, I wonder if we’ll be able to sell’im?

 

From The Belgium league. What could possibly go wrong. Let's be honest we've had plethora of talent from there.
