Idrissa Gueye - now gone

[AGRIPPA]

Hopefully he'll be as successful as the last midfielder they had that played for us.

mmm... Everton sign a midfielder from us...

Steve Watson?

Or are you classing Ginola as a midfielder?

Cleverly innit?

Surely they technically signed him from Man U?

I was on about Barry...missed the man city years...😦😦😦

[sickbeggar]

I don't think we're being smug, just realistic. He was totally anonymous the whole season so 7m for that seems a good deal.. He may find his feet but could just as likely continue in the same vein and personally i'd rather have the money rather than the worse case scenario of getting nothing for him in 12 months time. He's also going to be 27 in a month's time so if he intends to become a premier standard player he's leaving it a bit late...

[Clampy]

I liked what I saw of him. He wasn't a midfield maestro but it was his first season over here. Some players like Kante hit the ground running, some players like Gana take more time.

[LukeJames]

I think quite the opposite, he looked decent at first, broke up play well, seemed to have a good engine and played the sensible ball, the longer the season went on he turned to shit.

[jwarry]

Meh, doesn't fell like a great loss to be honest.  Ayew would

[oswald funkletrumpet]

gana was a headless chicken and part of the most lightweight central midfield i have seen in 40 years

When we lose any player we need to keep in mind that whoever he is he was part of a team that accrued 17 points in a whole season.

Whereas, stats are what drives Guess The Crowd.

Are you in again, OF? We start next week!

This particular one having contributed a whole one goal, against a League Two side, during that season.

Only Villa could set a buyout clause for less than we paid for him!

[Duncan Shaw]

Only Villa could set a buyout clause for less than we paid for him!

It will be a co-efficient due to a year less on the contract and the fact we are relegated.  His wages will have dropped x% due to relegation, therefore a release clause would be set at a similar level to allow him the opportunity to get back to the previous level of wages should it arise.

[JUAN PABLO]

He never looked like a £9 million pound player , maybe take off a digit and I was suprised he is nearly 27 , so get rid .
just a Yacouba Sylla MK2

[mr underhill]

in fact in his first appearances for us, Sylla  probably looked better

[JUAN PABLO]

I think you could be right Mr Underhill
