Anyone doing a match thread? I’m hoping he goes soon. Don’t think even with some investment he can get us playing.
Palace will be key for him.
 
I've got everyone on ****ing ignore and those I haven't have got me on ignore. This means I can get on with my life.
Don't flatter yourself Godders, people don't put you on ignore, they just skim past your posts to the next one.

****, I just read your post, I'll have to put you on ignore now so that I don't accidentally do it again.
 
Mirror saying we are selling Gabbiadini

As well as Long!? How many strikers/attacking players are we going to bring in then!? Especially given that Austin is out injured and we never replaced JRod.

Gabbi has had far from a fair crack at the whip. He's clearly talented and has been badly let down by his team mates in the rare starts he gets, and has since lost confidence. We need to be working out how to play to his strengths, not selling him. Unless there's more to this than meets the eye?

Selling everyone
 
Selling everyone

By more than meets the eye, I meant more that Gabbi hasn't settled here/wants out himself or something along those lines perhaps. Don't know why else we'd sell him!? I know we need a clear out, but that's more a summer job you would think and even then Gabbi would not be on my clearout list!

Nowhere near my clearout list. Quality player.
 
Yeah Gabbi doesn't get the service... every game... yet Austin always seems to get "the service".

No excuses, he has been poor this season. However, it's his first full season in england and despite a great start last year he needs time and we have to be patient.

Different kinds of service. Three of Charlie's goals (and a great many of his chances) have come from headers. Gabbiadini isn't that sort of striker, and it's somewhat silly how often a move ends with us lobbing a cross in the general direction of his head in heavy traffic, after failing to pick him out when he was running at the defense fifteen seconds earlier.

Yeah I got what you meant, I was just being sarcastic. I wouldn't sell him either

It's not just that though. Austin always seems to have more chances. Whether it be the through ball to match his run just after he can on against chelsea, his goal against Huddersfield, the time he hit the post against Everton from Cedrics cutback.

Take away all his headers and he still seems to get plenty of goals and chances compared to Gabbi.
