Dan Crowley

With a bit of luck if he makes something of his self we will get some decent money for him later on.

Why would we get any more money for him, whatever happens in his future?

Because GB thinks Crowley plays for us even though he admits he doesn't know him!

[footyskillz]

He was brought up at villa and stolen by arsenal is imagine he's be near first team if he had stayed

Because its not uncommon for a club to recieve money later on for such a player like when the player makes a certain amount of appearances for the other club.  Didn't Brighton get some money for Gareth Barry when he later became a success for us?  It depends on the deal between the two clubs?

So whats your point?  Itv seems like no one in this thread knows of him.

[Woofles The Wonder Dog]

He left three years ago.

The only money we paid for Barry was a compensation fee to cover Brighton's costs in training him, judged by a tribunal to be £1 million. Nothing to do with how many appearances he made.

[PeterWithesShin]

IIRC the tribunal deal with Barry and Standing was we would pay extra if they played for England etc, it could reach something like £2m for both of them, as Standing didn't do much no idea what we ended up paying Brighton in total. I know we weren't happy when Crowley left, we got something crap like £200K for him, which considering we'd developed him for 8 or 9 years and he was so highly rated is shite.

[Stirchley Villain]

Dan Crowley? It's symbolic of course.

[LeeB]

He's become something of an occult figure.

[Gregorys Boy]

Thanks, but if he left three years ago then why are we still talking about him now?

[Stirchley Villain]

It's polemically sent.

[gnrpoison]

I want to know what you ment

[footyskillz]

Another case of its got to his head ! Dan Crowley  has alot going for him and when growing up at villa big bug things expected.  Now he had his  season long loan end early by Oxford utd. Even though at times he excelled and shows some talent Appleton didn't like attitude off and on pitch and left out last 3 matches. Unfortunately  it seems another young english at a premier league club who is struggling to embrace a proffesionalism needed to match his potential. Southgate is right about changing mentality of players.  Hopefully Grealish Realise the penny has dropped. Crowley after getting big move away from villa at the moment  is currently failing and not flying.  Two failed loans at league one clubs and a damming assessment from Oxford utd manager :

Appleton has said this;:
"There are a couple of issues I want to make sure are addressed in terms of what he does on and off the field.

“He’s a 19-year-old lad who has fantastic ability, but his professionalism at times lets him down.

“He’s had a few issues at Arsenal and Barnsley previously. It’s all a massive learning curve for him.

“Ultimately sometimes when people step out of line you have to put them in their place."

[cdbearsfan]

Sounds like a bellend. Hopefully he'll turn out to be shite.
