We set the tone by splurging megacash on the Bolasie of the managerial world, Ronald Koeman. It just got stupider from there with this signing being a particular lowlight with the money paid.

Where can we find another Kanchelskis?
And how much will he cost?

I remember speaking to an avid palace fan when we signed Bolasie. I asked “what’s he like?” He replied, “we never knew what he was going to do next......, trouble is, neither did he...”

He is the wing version of Oumar.

nd you may well be right but doesn't he deserve the chance to regain some form just in case we can save £28m?
When Coleman had a serious injury 3 or 4 years ago it took him half a season to look like anything like his former self. Good job we didn't sell him hey!
Wasn't that a Spanish player in a pre season friendly that completely took him out for weeks. I remember he got well crocked.

That's the funny thing. Strikers are usually the most expensive part of a team, yet Bolasie cost twice as much as Oumar and is at least fourteen thousand times worse than him.

Pre Bolasie injury they were probably more similar - now Bolasie on a free would be a gamble.

I may be wrong but didnt coleman get the injury 12months or so ago and came back mid season looking the same?
Bolasie came back looking the same also...the same donkey we signed.
Think we only signed him to stop him looking decent twice a season.

I'm not Bolasie's greatest fan. I have seen him turn in some good performances, though most of them were for Palace. Pace seems to be his greatest asset - I hope he still has it.
I'm all for MOTM polls, but I don't like threads like this whose purpose is simply to abuse a single player. The posts may be comical - and obviously exaggerated - but I don't think they are fair to the player, not that any player is going to follow them every day.
And threads like this can also cause a division between fans. Whilst we all have our own opinions and criticisms, we also have many interests in common.

Exactly. Simply signing him should be worth six points a season.

The opinions on Bolasie are indeed extreme. He’s literally the only true wing at the club. He has talent and can produce at times. Many players that take players on are inconsistent.
He also isn’t like Coleman who broke a leg. He tore his MCL and ACL. Expecting him to be 100% in a year is silly, so expectation have been unrealistic.
It would be fine if we sell him, but we’d need another player that can play out wide like Lozano.

I think the 'fury' is because;
A- He was never worth the fee
B- Statistically he's awful
C- Pointless step overs / showboating
D- Instagram warrior
Other posters are stating that;
D- He's a top player who needs time to recover (he was never a top player)
E- He was great for us before his injury(he wasnt)
Its like hes been injured and suddenly become 100 times the player but needs time to heal...
Its poppycock.
Lozano would be a massive signing.
