    It is crazy that he is nowhere near the senior French national team, with a record like that for France U21s. France has so much strength in depth.

    Any other nation and he'd probably be in, amazingly. Other than England cos he plays up here of course.

    I'm talking about talent

    Also, you mentioned Robbie Keane, so going by your argument, how has Robbie Keane did more for us than Eddy?

    Granted its about opinions but I'm astonished anyone would take Griffiths at full pop over Edouard at full pop. If that is what we are talking about here - at full flight.

    Because Griffiths as a 40 goal striker is 6 years ago.

    Amazed really. As a finisher with natural instinct then Griffiths aye, maybe, but everything else Edouard just brings more.

    I don’t even think the 40 goal season was him playing at his peak for us.

    Was Rodgers first season, he was far more all rounded. He was disturbed by injuries though but that was him at his best as a goalscoring team player.

    If he does well in the knockouts in May it will get us a good price on him.

    Imagine he gave a single * * this season. Disgusted with him. Thought he would be next level for us before moving on. Instead all we got is a half-arsed, ignorant, arrogant sulk. * this season to *.

    Anyone who would take Griffiths over Edouard knows * all about football. Genuinely.

    Never mind the difference in their ability on the pitch, which is a chasm, but a want away Eddy can still find the professionalism to keep himself fit and available for selection.

    Overall was poor yesterday, both touch and body language looked off. Link up play half decent.
    Must do better.

    That pass for Forrest’s goal was exceptional. He’s really missed guys running beyond him.

    of the three of them, why would you bother with West Ham?

    He should be thinking to himself - his buddy got a move to Lyon and then a loan to Atleti - West Ham is a far far way from that sort of level!

    As much as the fee we get will be restricted this summer, with one year left and covid affecting things, he really needs to look at himself for not catching the eye of clubs like Dortmund, Lyon, clubs who will need a new striker very soon!

    West Ham are 4th in the league and could be in the Champions league, Arsenal may not even get into Europe next season.

    Could be argued a fluke season, very well next year they could be fighting relegation again.

    No doubt, he is better than West Ham

    Why would anyone knock back West Ham if they get champions league, he’ll treble his wage atleast, have a chance at champions league football and get to live in London.

    If they finish in the champions league spots you can be sure they’ll throw some money at it so Edouard would have an even better team behind him. They’ve been run horribly for years but if they are top 4 come end of the season none of that matters
