He doesn’t have good service, Lille are giving up all their players for a bag of chips and then they seem to value David like Gold, he’s a skilled player but he’ll have Trouble doing anything without service. johnyb and narduch 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyslexic nam Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 The initial marking was pretty rough but the first touch, the cut back and the finish would trouble defenders/keepers at any level. Damn. jhoops__ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InglewoodJack Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 This proves JD would kill it in the French 3rd div. Well done. but seriously, scoring 2 goals and getting an assist in a single half is impressive anywhere, even if it’s a friendly against an irrelevant opponent. After the season he’s had, obviously with an eye to bigger and better things and seemingly one foot out the door, giving an elite performance in a meaningless game is important. Show up, dominate, and then go and sit down with the game firmly in hand. That’s some superstar shit. johnyb, dyslexic nam, Pottsy3 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kacbru Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 I find it odd that people complained about how terrible Lille were to watch last year, how David didn't get any service, etc. are now also worried about Lille shipping a lot of those players out. The main problem with Lille last year is they couldn't score, Yilmaz got old really quick and in the 2nd half of the season, opponents figured out that David was the only threat they had to worry about. From a CMNT perspective, being at Lille is the perfect situation for David going into the WC. He will have to take his chances and fight for goals.

frmr Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Lewa to Barcelona done. Still unlikely that David goes to Bayern but slightly more likely now I guess. johnyb, Unnamed Trialist, TOcanadafan and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narduch Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Apparently EPL clubs (Everton and West Ham) are chasing Onana. For over 30 million Euros I think it may be too soon to say David will be at Lille for sure Obinna 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InglewoodJack Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Is there a difference between a friendly and an “opposition d’entraînement”? I think that’s Brugge’s B team. The way it sounds, they called those guys in as ringers for target practice more or less. Still cool to see JD putting in work, even in matches that don’t matter.

sebdeserio Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 Seeing clubs willing to pay 35+ million for players like Isak and Scamacca who are in no way better than David and hearing no rumours about him moving is kind of weird, even if they’re different profiles. A well earned break should do him well and apparently Lille’s new signing Bayo will complement him well so even if he doesn’t move it’s not the end of the world.

I just think that Lille’s asking price ($50-$55M?) is holding off serious bids at this time. And perhaps David really does only want Champions League football if he makes a move, so even though certain Prem teams could take a chance on him, he isn’t interested.

Isak is in a better league, has one more year at the level than David, and has a similar scoring rate. Then again, his scoring rate for Sweden is worse than David's for Canada. He's good, I like him, but you could argue that if David, at his age, had his Ligue 1 numbers in La Liga or Serie A he'd be worth even more. I find it nuts they are offering 70 million for Isak, surprising. Let's be honest: if David had scored just 4-5 more over the second half of the season his 50 million transfer would have happened and Lille would have kept 2-3 others instead of him.

Obinna Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 Larin vs David. Must be fun for these guys to face each other in preseason. Too bad Buchanan was left out (I think). How bout this for the next set of friendlies? Nottingham Forest vs Club Brugge Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Lille and why not.....

He'll get European competition this season, I believe (Europa?) I don't know, I have been generally negative whenever they've been linked to him, but seeing as though nothing else is on the horizon, it doesn't seem so bad. On the other end, at Lille he'll probably score a boat load of goals, but they are losing players so the supporting cast won't be there. Maybe he can channel some '2019-2020 Gent' vibes and puts Lille on his back? Corazon, narduch, Ruffian and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cronaldo7 Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 Eh, worst thing that happens is that he fails at Man Utd (just like many other great players have). This would be a massive move and I’d personally love to see how it transpires. I keep re-iterating the same thing when it comes to speculation like this. Football players careers are short and their careers aren’t very predictable. If a chance like this comes, you take it (not everything can be playing for the perfect manager, or the perfect #10 feeding you the ball or the perfect moment in a career). Just my opinion.

Considering the players we have and the teams they play for, I really don’t think we’re in any place to squawk about a Man U transfer. For all the talks of how dis functional they are or whatever, we have exactly one player at a better club then them, so I say if that’s the best offer out there, I would love to see David make that jump. h coach, costarg, Kent and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
