Confirmed Signing Andros Townsend

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

It's all relative. Iwobi cost £30 million, Townsend is better ands cost nothing.

We've set fire to £500 million and we now need to cut our cloth accordingly.

Yeah but "great signing" even if he was free that's stretching it mate.

 

[Noisy noise annoys]

Would of scored today if he had a bit more finesse about him absolutely rattled the bar again if he tried placing it either side probably would of scored.

Such an Everton fan thing to say

If he was a better footballer, he wouldn’t be joining Everton on a free mate.

But i don’t dislike the player.

I know mate ?

It's a very old school signing like when we signed Aaron Lennon or one of the many Man Utd cast offs. You know when we had no money.

Not a bad signing as a squad player and for free but looks like he could be a regular starter

If only we'd spent the £500m on players under Moshiri better! lol

He'd still be at Palace Toast.

 

[roy vernon]

Decent squad filler, the worry is though, he may well be seen as a starting player by the club.

 

[NilSatisOptimum]

Lennon Walcott and now Townsend. Not a fan of once upon a time pacey wingers.

 

[GoldenToffee]

It says it all that virtually everybody here would rather have free transfer and unwanted-by-Crystal Palace Andros Townsend, or even a not-good-enough-for-us-three-years-ago Aaron Lennon over a should-be peak £30 million Great British Pounds Alex Iwobi!

 

[Zatara]

Oh he was useless against premier league level opposition. A real shame there wasn't a significant body of evidence to influence the decision to sign him.

Does Marcel Brands actually ever watch football?

Hes 100% a benitez signing.

Would be fine for 1 season as 4th choice wide player...if we brought in 2 more to rotate with Richarlison.

2 year deal though and Gray signed as well?

Stupidity.

 

[deipnosophist]

I receive many, many personal messages, always excitedly asking me "deip, where do all your incredible nicknames for our brave lionhearts find source?"
It is humblingly enriching that so many of you are so enquiring.

Well, let me tell you about Andros being nicknamed 'Nutbush'.

In 1973, Ike and Tina Turner released a song 'Nutbush city limits'. And right there is the provenance of my nickname for the bloke eponymously vanguarding this thread.

 

[deipnosophist]

I would just like to send special message of thanks to @Zatara for giving me such a massive 'thumb's up'...it means a lot to me Zat...thank you

 

[toffee-boy]

Just added him my fantasy football team as he's cheap .. im wondering if he will play much, richarlison will be out a little whilst he comes back from the olympics, trying to work out if townsend will start games?

One thing about him, he has a shot on him, would be nice to see a blammo from outside the box.
