Summer 2023 Transfer Speculation

Random talk on Twitter of Joao staying

[WestYorksRoyal]

Silly season rumour around that we're reopening negotiations with Joao. Thankfully it will surely be nonsense

[CountryRoyal]

Thankfully bs but if true would ask to refund my st. Sorry not sorry.

[TiagoIlori]

The talk stems from a misrepresented quote by the look of it. The manager of Angola just wants him to find a club soon after leaving Reading and he does not explicitly say Reading are trying to sign him.

Highly doubt the club welcomes him back after Huddersfield.

Really not the sort of player we should be building a team around. Can be incredible on his day, but that day comes far too rarely with too much dross in the middle. Can't see this happening.

It's interesting with Joao, in regards with his ability he's far too good for league one but I wonder if he'd have drilled into his head if he stayed. If we can be convinced he'll be able to scrap when required then I wouldn't be against this as it's about his mindset with him. But realistically is he going to be up for a cold midweek night in Fleetwood?

I don't see it happening in truth, he'll go back to Portugal I think.

Recent match

Central African Republic 1 - 2 Angola

L. João stats: 80 mins, 0 goals, 0 assists, 0 shots.

There he is, that’s the Lucas we all know and love.

[From Despair To Where?]

Joao would be exactly the sort of signing we should be avoiding like the plague.

Indeed

Why i put it in the speculation and had a little emoji by it

Don’t believe it for a minute, can’t imagine he’s Selles cup of tea at all

[NathStPaul]

We just don't need another striker above anything else.

Don't worry, if it don't come from Brogue it's a non-starter.

If he wants to play L1 football for £4k a week I'd welcome him with open arms.

Even off his day he should shit all over L1 defences.

And we're building a team that might be able to play some football for once.

Seems to be a bit of a memory issue on him round here.

87(29) appearances, 42 goals, 15 assists.

You’ve always been Joaos biggest apologist. Yeah he scores goals when he can be arsed but it’s too few and far between. 7 goals last time out was poor. Unless he scores he offers nothing. Not a team player and exactly the type of player we should be avoiding. Like I said, good thing it’s BS.

[Royal Ginger]

Wouldn’t mind having him back either. If we manage to put together a productive midfield who can give him some service he could score a boatload.

Wasn’t so long ago that he was the new messiah.

[From Despair To Where?]

The big issue is that he'd want more than we,should be prepared to offer

[blythspartan]

In all honesty it’s not going to happen but if it was a choice between Joao and Martin, I know who I’d choose.

[CountryRoyal]

The biggest issue is that I can’t imagine he’d fancy Carlisle away too much. We can’t afford to carry players, and that’s if they can be arsed to turn up.

How anyone can want someone back who refused to play for the club is mind boggling.

[CountryRoyal]

In all honesty it’s not going to happen but if it was a choice between Joao and Martin, I know who I’d choose.

Well same because they’re both pricks but one is a lot better than the other. Glad it’s not a choice.

Totally agreed CR. No more sulky show ponies on too much money.
