What's everyone's else thoughts on taking a punt on kobbie mainoo, was an up and coming star at one point, I personally think he could be a good fit for us.
{Ed025's Note - im not sure on Kobbie Pasty, he has really regressed and does not seem to have the best attitude mate..

Personally, I think most of his issues can be blamed at Amorim. I reckon he would be quality for us, but we'd be about 20th in the queue for him.
More likely he'll go to Napoli or somewhere and absolutely fly out there.
{Ed025's Note - you could well be right Alex..

I liked the lad when he first turned up. Maybe a combination of different managers has had an adverse effect on him. I mean just look at KDH, I know a few on here we’re not keen on his signing at first. Mainoo could become another KDH and a long term replacement for Gana.

Different club different attitudes, would go for him.

Yeah takes longer by ferry and train.

Not for us. As for KDH, personally always liked him, I must have missed the posts from those not keen. Of those I knew/know nothing about, Dibling stands out, I fear that even when Ndiaye goes to Afcon Dibling will still be second choice to McNeil.
Watched McNeil, it was like treading water compared to the rest, slowed the game down. He didn't do much wrong, perhaps that is what Moyes sees.

McNeil sits back and supports the fullback, but his lack of pace limits him going forward.
Obviously you missed the comments about him not being good enough for Chelsea and would be too much of a gamble etc.
Can’t comment on Dibling because I’ve hardly seen the lad play in blue. Though from what I’ve seen from highlights from his Southampton days the lad has a lot of ability and likes to run at defences.
