I was surprised too, but there are some questions regarding his attitude. Mind you, the same questions were asked of VVD too. I'm sure we had reasons, as he was the obvious choice.
I spoke too soon But for all those asking why we didn’t go for him - much higher wages and a higher fee. Simples everything from the reporting was that he wanted massive wages now we can obviously gripe about how palace can pay more than us - but they can and have been able to for ages. Look at Zaha and Cahill
Just as they start getting cocky, they get brought back down to Earth with a bump. Always the way. If their fans shut the f*ck up for once, they might win something.
Time will tell on that front. He’s played fewer games so it could end up being and even better rate 8 minutes vs 270 ! But it is kind of irrelevant because if the wages are truly double then it suggests he wanted what Ings was on (potentially more) with no record to prove it. It is a daft conversation as we were never going to go for it We might as well moan about not spending 32m on Tammy Abraham since if we had put up the cash he might well have joined
I wish. Unfortunately I have to concentrate all my reverse jinxes on Djenepo. Better get one in before kick off…
Out of interest - why? I would have purely based on the opinion that his goal record in a struggling championship teams seem a lot better than playing for a Scottish superpower where most of your games are against sides that would probably struggle in league 1
Apparently, and I must have missed this news, Ronaldo is back playing at Old Trafford today? Incredibly they've kept that so quiet and under the radar.
Oh goodie, he's now scored. Socials and the media are going to be spunking everywhere. It's absolutely nauseating.
Imagine how the media would have react to messi joining. This is akin to that as they have equal standing in the game you just have a great return narrative rather than a “ooh he has never played before” but one of the highest profile superstars in the game is (back) in the league
