DefenceDo you guys think we'll see 3 more signings(including N'Jie) this window? If we only sign N'Jie(or Berahino) and a DM, I still think we're short depth wise.

HOW DO YOU SAY HIS NAME?
HOW DO YOU SAY HIS NAME?
At 0:03, you hear the presenter say what sounds like "en-zhee", basically just like "N-G", except with the "G" being more like the sound in "leisure" than the sound in "ledger". At 0:25, you can hear a kind of racist chant ("He's black and we don't fucking care, when he scores we love him a lot, Clinton Njie!") His response was, "that's football."
Here, at 0:28, the presenter says his name in reverse ("Njie Clinton"), but she says it the same way as the presenter above. That segment is filmed in his home town, but the audio is rough.
Interestingly, in the French media, he's "Njie", but in the English media, he's "N'Jie". Maybe the Slavic influence has become so strong in England that "Njie" will be read as "Nyeh," as in "Kranjčar"?
I know we're all hopeful on Pritchard, but expecting him to play on both wings at the same time is overdoing it a bitDefence

As soon as we are remotely linked with someone it's tradition to treat them as integral to our plans, add them to any formations suggested and slate Levy if the deal doesn't materialise.as i said on another thread it amazes me how this guy has gone from 'raw promise' to 'must have finished article' in the space of a few weeks, lol. like many others i haven't seen any footage of the bloke, he could be great, he could be average. desperate times call for desperate measures i suppose. Kane needs some support thats for sure.
It's also Levy's fault that West Brom are still waiting to see if one of the Mancs drop 30m for Berahino.As soon as we are remotely linked with someone it's tradition to treat them as integral to our plans, add them to any formations suggested and slate Levy if the deal doesn't materialise.
