Confirmed Signing Demarai Gray

[windymiller]

Townsend approaching it with the right attitude, at least. He's well aware that people reckon he's just squad filler but appears determined to prove he's more than that. Also reckons he's still at his peak

Fair play, guess we'll see.

So he's lost his mind or is a BSer?

 

[Noisy noise annoys]

Ignored by the haters?!?!

 

[windymiller]

how much money is he on? if its more than 30k a week we are absolute mugs. My palace mate loves him but then again its Crystal Palace...

He was on 60 at CP, no way he takes a 50% cut.

 

[Kev50]

Agreed, buying absolute gash

hes played his whole career in the top flight, English international. and he's on a free transfer, was 29 last week.
Absolute gash is Iwobi for £35m on a five year deal.

Proper scrapping the barrel aren’t we, looking at every possible way of turning this into a positive

Beats whinging and moaning about signing a depth player on a free.

He was 30 last week

Anyway, if we can get Bernard off the books and his wages are taken up by two players instead of one who doesn't play, then that's alright, it's how we have to look at it

Yes.

Especially when you look at some of our benches last season,.. Sometimes didnt even fill it.

 

[JLW]

So Benitez belled him as soon as he got the Everton job! I wonder if he got the Spurs Arsenal or even back to Liverpool job would he be on the blower to Townsend??

Still more than Lucas, to be fair.

I'm upset but I also know it's not the lads fault.

It's christians to the lions. If he doesn't perform from day 1 he's going to get slaughtered by our fans.

 

[Dan79]

I dont need much persuading on that. I know all about him and I'm ready for that eventuality.

In the meantime, though, it might be more fruitful to give him a chance to do something here before we pitchfork him.

I vote straight to the pitchforking

The bottom of the barrel can be found mate, your close

 

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Comes across brilliantly and acknowledges he’s not a shoe in, suspect he is though unless we sign a top winger which will be very difficult without sales. Based on his crossing alone we should create a lot more chance for Dom, who lets be honest fed off scraps last year.

It doesn’t mert, I prefer the former

Signing squad players who aren't good enough to replace a squad player that isn't good enough just isnt wise business mate.

At least you're admitting that Brands made the mistake in the first place and it is all his fault we are now bargain basement shopping.
