I feel like there are a bunch of people in here coming to conclusions on a player they've never actually seen play. It's fine to have doubts, but maybe hold off on the outrage until he actually puts the shirt on?

I've seen him play, he wasn't very good.

But the big caveat is that he was playing as a winger. I can't comment on him as a RB and would be delighted if he is good there because we badly need a good one.

Can't tell you good/average/poor player from eye test but going by whoscored ratings McKennie grades out slightly better than him. Only playing with my buddies here with my sarcastic post being negative but I would love to see him perform well. Young guy but early numbers say at best backup Juve material. :xfingers:

I dont have high expectations, but I wasnt expecting a big summer with exciting signings anyway.

At the end of the day, this club needs some turnover and fresh blood. It's a stale team. I'd rather sign someone like Weah than bring back Cuadrado on a 1 year contract.

you're right, I've barely watched Lille these past few years. my only outrage is that we're looking for players that can play multiple positions because we don't know what kind of team we want to build. that's been our strategy for good 6-7 years now and it's just wasteful.

I used to think the hybrids and the fluidity in formation is smth thats linked to specific players like Dybala or Ronaldo. But apparently we're just permanently retarded and love to make life difficult for ourselves.

pure hater energy.
Sadly he has a point.....

There's at least 17 players faster in ligue 1( maybe more)

The fastest in Ligue 1 Uber Eats (2022-23):
1. Kylian Mbappé (PSG): 36 km/h
-- Terem Moffi (FC Lorient): 36 km/h
3. Abdallah Sima (Angers SCO): 35,64 km/h
-- Alan Virginius (LOSC): 35,64 km/h
-- Elye Wahi (Montpellier HSC): 35,64 km/h
6. Dango Ouattara (ex-FC Lorient): 35,28 km/h
-- Achraf Hakimi (PSG): 35,28 km/h
-- Kevin Gameiro (RC Strasbourg Alsace): 35,28 km/h
-- Thomas Delaine (RC Strasbourg Alsace): 35,28 km/h
-- Franck Honorat (Stade Brestois 29): 35,28 km/h
-- Falaye Sacko (Montpellier HSC): 35,28 km/h
-- Jackson Porozo (ESTAC Troyes): 35,28 km/h
-- Chrislain Matsima (FC Lorient): 35,28 km/h

Weah records at 33.21km/h which is supposedly joint third highest in Lille (speedsdb.com).

According to Tuttosport, moise Kean is our fastest at 34.4km/h with cuadrado second at 33.6km/h
