And so it begins... Not exactly the out-and-out striker we're looking for - he mostly played out wide or in a two upfront last season - but apparently a talent nonetheless. http://www.hitc.com/en-gb/2018/07/24/por-watford-target-djion-star-said/ "Watford are weighing up a move for highly-rated Dijon forward Wesley Said as they look for a replacement for Everton-bound Richarlison, HITC Sport understands from sources close to the club. Watford are planning for life without Brazilian attacker Richarlison ahead of his impending move to Everton and they are actively scouring the transfer market for reinforcements. Said has emerged on Watford's radar and that of a number of clubs across Europe following his impressive form for Dijon in Ligue 1. The former France Under-21 international netted nine goals and provided four assists in 31 Ligue 1 games last term for Dijon to earmark him as one of the best young talents in France's top-flight..."
HITC Sport understands from sources close to the club More like HITC sport has made up just to drive more traffic to their dreadful ******** laden website.
Decent scoring record last season for Dijon (9 in 29 - 20 of those were starts) if he did play out wide. Transfermarkt have his main position down as a centre forward though
Perhaps, but it does seem like sensible shout. If it's decided that Success and Penaranda are not wanted this season, we will be short on the left - he can cover that position, whilst offering something different up front to Troy and Gray. Wouldn't break the bank either, right up Gino's street. I couldn't find a goal compilation complete with terrible music on Youtube, but you can watch all of his goals individually. I liked this one:
He didn't score in any of his sub appearances either, so it was 9 goals in 20 starts. Or 6 goals in 11 starts as a CF. I think he looks very good, and has the pace and dribbling ability our other strikers lack. He seems incredibly similar to Jermaine Defoe, in both appearance and style. Can score with both feet, and also with his head:
"We're the right Said, we're the right Said, we're the right Said over here" "We're the left Said, we're the left Said, we're the left Said over here"
He didn’t score in 11 of his starts either so it’s actually 9 goals in those 9 starts. Even better Sorry
Haha. Sub appearances can be for like 10 minutes though. Regardless, he was on the pitch for 1,840 minutes, which is almost exactly the equivalent of 20 x full 90 minutes - so 9 goals in 20 games, or 1 goal ever 2.3 games, is a fair way of looking at it.
I don't always think that is a fair way of looking at it. A sub might not get the same chances as a starter depending on the teams mentality at the time. However 9 goals in 20 games as you say, is certainly not to be sniffed at.
It was a perfectly good point that you made; I just saw an opportunity for a cheap gag and couldn't resist! On the basis of the highlights reel I've just seen (which amounts to less than a minute) I'd say this lad looks great. He gets my vote. Not sure about the validity of the source though - HITC not got a great track record...
That one vs. LOSC was an absolute worldy, on his weaker left foot as well. I love getting excited about players we'll never sign.
Wesley Said said 'Wesley Said said I would never join a tinpot club'. I can't believe Said said this, he said. Said said this in third person. Wan*er.
This reminds me of the KP advert. The nut nuts nut. Interestingly enough, apparently the longest string of the same word that makes literally sense is - Buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo. Go figure!
There's no clothes I can buy Make me feel like myself Wesley Said So I put on clothes To make me look like someone else Instead And as a matter of fact I don't like to be seen 'Cause I'm not satisfied with myself she said You better hit her Wesley said, Wesley said, Wesley said, she's dead
story gaining some momentum, here as well. or they just copying and pasting story who knows... https://www.sportsmole.co.uk/footba...e-said-as-richarlison-replacement_331456.html
Don't wanna piss on anyone's chips with the whole 'said' jokes, but I think it's pronounced "Sigh-Eed"
The article quotes HITC so I'm not sure it's that much of a mystery. Just wait til Sports Witness quotes Sports Mole quoting HITC. A black hole will immediately open up and swallow the planet.
