Pardew in the news today saying that he rates him at £20M Think we may have missed out on something there
What were your predictions? I would be interested to see those as I can't remember them.. I did laugh at some of your other predictions though.. RODs gonna have a field day with this.!!
Well, I have to confess to another balls up. I thought he was a box of frogs. 'RODs gonna have a field day with this.!!' Please be gentle with me.
there were a few said we should have made an effort to keep him.. but I think he was homesick? pity we don't have a sign on clause ? but would he leave Palace ?
Sadly it's about one of the things the muppet did predict, not quite 20 million but he did say he would go onto better things. Don't worry he's still a muppet though Apart from the goal against Cov, I probably had the same opinion. Would of liked to of seen more of him to get a better opinion but he didn't want to stay.
No, you ****ed up big time with the SOD predictions and you weren't exactly Nostradamus over Cotterill.!
I always liked Bolasie and could never understand why we didn't play him on the left with Albert on the right, like they did when they were at Barnet together. Delboy only used Bolasie as a sub replacement for Albert - which was a waste of talent.
We all make mistakes - I thought that Nick Carle was going to be the most exciting player ever seen at AG a few years back. I nearly turned against my mate GJ when he sold him to Palarse. Turned out to be probably the best bit of business GJ did for us!
'Yes I was dismayed at selling Carle' - And me. 'I thought he was our best player back in 2008' Sorry, no midfielder in the Championship (let alone City) could compare with Marvin Elliot.
I rate myself at £100m. That doesn't mean someone is willing to pay that kind of money for me. Personally, I doubt anyone would pay that much for Bolasie. I reckon at most Crystal Palace would get £12m for him right now. Another good season at the top and maybe he could go for that amount. Either way, we really did miss a track with him, but then again we really needed to reduce the squad. Would you rather have a player with that kind of potential and be struggling in League 1, or be where we are now?
He was very raw when he was with us, he used to come on as a sub and I was waiting for him to get almost immediately sent off, this was just over enthusiasm, nothing more, he needed a run in a side and the circumstances wouldn't allow that with us at the time.. Shame, he looks a dangerous and very exciting player for Palace now..
