Yes, I agree with all you say, always liked him and wasn't criticising him, only making the comparison
Palace fans not all that impressed that they have become fav to sign Hangeland they much prefer he came to us as(and I kid you not)that would the open the way for them to make a bid for Curtis Davies(they really do think they have a chance of getting him).
Finding it tough with these centre back targets. Lescott, Dawson and now Hangeland. Maybe it's time to Turn-er to our old friend Michael...
I wouldn't be unhappy if we accepted an offer over £8m, provided his replacement was just as good and all of the money we got from his sale was put towards finding his replacement.
