trousers Posted 4 October, 2020 Share Posted 4 October, 2020 (edited) Do we know why Salisu continues to be kept out of the public eye (aside from a couple of snatched pics in training a few weeks ago) whilst Diallo is being given the full works photo shoots?

I'll be honest, the whole Salisu situation has been very, very peculiar I'll be honest. I'm sure he's our player, but the lack of media presence over him was weird.

stknowle Posted 4 October, 2020 Share Posted 4 October, 2020 Right, having revisited the kit thread, (re)looked at the official website, and considered the photos of our new signing it would seem that replica kit with the Sportsbet sponsor logo and UA manufacturer logo does not exist, replica kit with the redundant LD sponsor logo and UA manufacturer logo does exist but regardless we will be playing in actual kit with Sportsbet sponsor logo and UA manufacturer logo. Perhaps my original question should have been why has the UA manufacturer logo been dropped from the replica kit with the Sportsbet sponsor logo? Anyway let’s hope this Diallo fellah is good whatever kit he turns out in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picture the scene. “Ohh MLG you sexy beast, put a baby inside of me!” ”No!” 1) The act of conception occurs between gametes, male and female, I would be providing sperm, not a baby. 2) A baby is not considered a baby until it’s born, what you’d end up with is a zygote that mitotically divides to produce an embryo and after that it becomes a foetus. 3) The verb put, doesn’t really work in this situation since the sperm have to make their way from the vagina to the Fallopian tubes. Deposit would be more apt. 1 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are so many Diallos in football nowadays that it can get confusing. But, this one is the younger brother of Abdou Diallo, a central defender at PSG. There is probably an agent somewhere who tells young players, call yourself Diallo and I'll be able to find you a club. Incidentally, Habib Diallo means Dear Bold or to be less prosaic, Darling Dashing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No wonder he has never scored a goal in his career. But, he is a good tackler and perhaps that's what we need. If he were another Wanyama, it would be great.

Agreed, should allow JWP to get forward a bit more too - always felt Hoj was a bit too similar, they both liked going for a wander when we really need one to stay back (unless they're going to score a screamer - Romeu!). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco fortuné Posted 6 October, 2020 Share Posted 6 October, 2020 Hi all, I'm a Brest team fan, just wanted to share a few words about your new crack, Ibra! (that's the way everybody called him here). He played two years ago in the second French division, in the first one last year, and he is going now to discover the best championship in the world. He was certainly the best defensive midfielder we've had in the 2000's, and still 21... So a bit sad to let him go, but also proud for him, and happy with the money (The biggest sale of the history here). With your team, Ibra is going to improve again, he is clever with his choice of career, an ambitious player. I look forward to seing him playing in UK, and pretty sure you won't be disappointed about him. If you were looking for a great defender, Ibra is the man. He must improved on his raises, sometimes loosing dangerous balls (a bit like Verratti with PSG), but the way he can feel the game is very special and very nice to watch. Here in Brest, we are going to follow and support him with the Saints, and we won't forget how he could be a great player in Brittany. Good luck with your season, and maybe see you next year in Europa League 😁 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Europa League would be good but possibly a bit too much of a leap for us this season. But a match in Brittany if we were drawn against your team would be good, once things return to normal.

Although most of my time was spent in the dock, I did have a few trips out into the city. Must say its a very nice part of the world and (unsurprisingly) a lot like Cornwall.
