He doesn't seem to have the build of a winger.

Neither does Richarlison tbf.

Was Richarlison a striker before he went to Watford? I don't think he was deployed as a striker for them (to my knowledge) I'm pretty sure he was even played  wing back there? and he was always a wide man under Silva at Everton. Admittedly I have seen him play up front for Everton but that always seemed to be through injuries to DCL or lack of quality up top and he looked like a false 9 when he did play there. Whereas Muniz looks like a CF. Scores a lot of goals with his head. From what I've seen and read I have no idea of he's suited to playing out wide. Does anyone know more?

Richarlison was mainly a winger before he went to Watford, but their build is almost identical. He has become more of a striker in recent times (kind of like Ronaldo).

I think he is being brought in as competition for Mitro, but he might be deployed elsewhere. Depends on what Silva thinks.

Muniz looks a bit more built than richarlison does back then and perhaps even now.

I would never have thought Jonah Lomu was a winger, :dft012:
Watching the ups and downs since 1958, wouldn't have it any other way, what a roller coaster of a club.

Somerset Fulham

I think that these ongoing comparisons to Richarlison are only setting everyone of you up for a world of disappointment.

He just happens to be a guy from the same country as Richarlison and 211 million other people, this does not make him the same thing.

Remember you are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.
I will be as good as I can be and when I cross the finishing line I will see what it got me

He will probably end up like Collins John

Anyone remember John Collins, he was a nearly player- liked watching him though..

John Collins was a class footballer who played for Hibs, Celtic, AS Monoco, Everton and Fulham; hardly a nearly player.
Totally different from Collins John.


MickyAdamsFamily

What a debut he had. After a couple of games, I thought we'd discovered a superstar. Then reality set in...

Yep, I think many of us remember both John Collins and Collins John and I agree it's pretty difficult to muddle them up. JC was class but Collins John flattered to deceive.

And still mainly a winger now.

It's pretty easy to muddle up the names, those guys played for us like 10-15 years ago, take it easy guys.

I was referring to Collins John (the striker) he was the nearly player.

I remember seeing John Collins play as well, retired with us I believe.

The Cravenette

Collins John remains a Fulham fan. I saw him at Birmingham away a few seasons ago and he was with the Fulham fans having a great time. He may read this board....

RaySmith

Collins John was a really exciting and talented player, especially when he began with Fulham, with an amazing debut, but I think  personal issues, and maybe injury, impacted on him fulfilling his full potential in the game.

Scottish international, John Collins was a  very classy player for Fulham, so important in the club's rise after MAF took over, with a long and distinguished playing career here and abroad.
I heard him recently as a pundit on 5Live, probably  for the  England/Scotland game.

That and he spent most off his time on the pitch in off side positions when the ball was played to him, was like he never knew the rule.

But he was ever so exciting, the goal against Boro showed what he could do ut sadly not often enough

Middlesexclub

Outstanding match against Arsenal at home. Think he was robbed of a hat trick by bad linesman decisions.

Translated From Twitter why loan? should sell him get tit permanently.
ZAMBO ANGUISSA 🚨
👉 Assigned with option to purchase. The club would already be in negotiations with Fulham, and they would welcome a loan to Espanyol. The player's file would now be acceptable thanks to the CVC investment fund. It is the objective 1 of the directive.#rcde

Tooting legend

Thought this was a thread regarding transfers not past players



MickyAdamsFamily

Sorry, I couldn't resist...
As for a possible loan of Anguissa, I agree that it seems to make no sense. If he's gonna go, then we should extract maximum value to balance the books & reinvest

If anybody ever wants to see what a kid like Collins John had to overcome to become a footballer. It is worth trying to find out about his struggles. He was a good player.
The above IS NOT A LEGAL DOCUMENT. It is an opinion.

We may yet hear the horse talk.

I can stand my own despair but not others hope
