Luis Díaz

[Kenneth]

He's a horrible cheat and the idea of us signing him needs to get ****ed.

Curtis Jones posted a fingers crossed and a red heart in Gordon’s latest insta post.

What was the post?

What was the post?

A variety of holiday snaps and him working out etc.

So i was feeling abit bored and decided to ask chatgpt (along the lines of recent comments from SB, Exiled Red, Kenneth, Dan, Doc (Jaco), Cerbie, Frank) with input:

"Should my football club sell my current player Diaz and sign Gordon from another club based upon the analysis and feelings as per inputs from my fan club base"

The outcome was:

Strategic Considerations
Pros of Signing Gordon:

Younger player with room to develop

High-intensity winger with great pace and pressing

Potential synergy with new creative players (e.g., Wirtz)

Cons of Selling Díaz for Gordon:

Net downgrade in current production (especially goals)

Poor perceived value for money

Fan backlash risk due to Gordon’s reputation

No consensus that Gordon is a true upgrade


✅ Final Recommendation:
Do not sell Díaz to buy Gordon unless:

You negotiate a significantly lower fee for Gordon.

You believe in Gordon’s long-term potential and can manage his reputation.

You’re confident he’ll fit tactically (e.g., with Wirtz or a similar playmaker).

You have a PR plan to manage potential fan backlash.

Right now, the risks outweigh the benefits, especially considering performance stats, price, and negative fan sentiment.

PR campaign to manage the fan backlash.

I can see the Paddy Power writers getting to work already.

I wouldn't worry about the diving, while he might win pens for Newcastle by doing it. Referees won't give him anything if he comes here, Salah can (and does) have the **** kicked out of him and referees give nothing.

What it doesn’t take into consideration is the fact that Diaz is angling for the move.

[fidget]

And that Gordon can do an interview saying how gutted he was when we released him as a 10 year old and made him go to the dark side

[BG1973]

Everything already said here, almost word for word.

chatgpt can **** off.

(with no offence to you intended)

[super_xabi]

There are reports from not particularly reliable places online that are saying Diaz has handed in a transfer request....

Probably bollocks, at least at this stage, but there seems to be more and more stuff coming out about him agitating for a move

[super_xabi]

If he were to go who are people's wants to replace him?

Gordon? (Not in favour of this, only big plus with him is being home grown)
Rodrygo? (There seem to have been questions about his training work rate etc)

Who else?

Gakpo and then bring in someone to be Gakpo's cover.


But if able to get anyone at all in a fantasy football manner, then would love Barcola in our squad.

[spud_gun]

If Diaz is leaving then I'd like to have seen us sign Kudus as his replacement. Obviously won't be happening.

Hasn't he just agreed to go to Spurs?
