He gets so lost in the middle of the pitch. If you match him up to Skipp, Skipp will score a solid 7+ per game. Billings too. But Billings will be 10, 4,4,6,5,6,4,10 And Skipp will be 7878778787 You tell me what you need in the middle of the pitch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sgncfc 1,227 Posted June 12, 2021 I've never really understood all the fuss about Billing - he's always struck me as a very lazy player. Anyway I don't see us spending £15m on one player. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BroadstairsR 2,163 Posted June 12, 2021 £15m+ ..... not for me at that price (reportedly paid by Bournemouth.) The Cherries would need to accept a £5m loss at the very least for him, imo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Son Ova Gunn 165 Posted June 12, 2021 (edited) He’s had a few seasons of PL experience since then and now at 25 (mirror reports 24 but birthday yesterday) so should be improved, so the valuation seems fair enough. Would fit wage and 6ft 6 is handy to improve the Achilles heal of set pieces. Not Skipp but not a bad shout for replacement I think Edited June 12, 2021 by Son Ova Gunn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
king canary 7,605 Posted June 12, 2021 Billings seems to provoke some string opinions on here. He's always struck me as a solid player but the stats seem to back up the suggestion of inconsistencies- however I'd back Farke to get the most out of him.

Ken Hairy 3,772 Posted June 12, 2021 I've always rated Billing personally, one of the few Bournemouth players I'd be happy for us to sign. Price seems about right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kenny Foggo 1,116 Posted June 12, 2021 Billing would be a great signing as would Armstrong. Would be happy with both of them... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PurpleCanary 5,557 Posted June 12, 2021 Is he lazy or one of those players who looks lazy? Some players just do. I seem to remember reading on a Bournemouth forum that they had recently been playing him further up the field, in the kind of Stiepermann role. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Saw him play in that role towards the end of last season and he certainly looked comfortable. If he comes Farke will certainly make him better. He would compliment Sorensen etc perfectly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Probably absolute tosh, but how would we feel about that if there was anything to it? That's.. Interesting to say the least. We all know that Max has been linked with Spurs for a long time now, and we seem to be grooming Bali to step us in his place but I just don't think we have a good enough Rightback for the Prem if Max were to leave us, at least right now Would be nice to now how much this supposed cash deal is that's being added alongside Max in this rather pinch of salt infomation. Of course getting Skip on a perm deal would be amazing, that I think most of us can agree with regardless Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
