Must admit I got a semi when I read that Bruce was set to pursue Macca and Bolassie once he's at Newcastle.

Quite how anybody knows this when he hasn't even been appointed yet, suggests it is fabrication to sell papers or advertising .... but still .... titillating.

I love the idea in this day and age that somebody would buy a newspaper for some transfer gossip.

Quite agree. I don't, by the way. Not bought a paper in 30+ years. Baffles me how they still exist.

Just that 1st part is enough.

I haven't bought one in 20+ years*

I'm sure he didn't get injured deliberately and would rather helped the cause by playing.
It's not like he downed tools and said I'm not playing

No he didnt, but he was crap.
A terrible buy and waste of money

Tevez and Eriksen (each) were signed for their respective club for less than £13m in the same summer.

One good season, should’ve cashed in when Spurs would’ve paid £26m or whatever. Shame about the injuries but he wasn’t great in his second season or when he’s played since tbh. Time to do the right thing. Give him a new 5 year deal

Hopefully the Palace story is true, £8mill is a very good price for his quality...... if they can keep him fit. Good price for us too for a player thats got 1 year left on his contract and has seen his injuries push him down the pecking order.

Good luck to him and I hope he does well.
