Traore was crap for us, how anyone can dispute that is beyond me.

Hence he ended up at a shithouse club like Boro. And now he's off to that world renowned footballing powerhouse that is Wolves.

He may go onto be a world beater one day, everything suggests he wont but it wont make a jot of difference to the fact he was bobbins here.

Ditto Veretout and Amavi

If players keep being good elsewhere, but don't do particularly well for us, I'd suggest the problem is ours, not theirs.

Well we seem to have done ok with the likes of Benteke

picking me up on an innocent typo is obviously more important to you Chris than finding ever-more cunning ways of associating the man's heinous character with a football transfer thread. A cheap shot if ever there was one.

I appreciate you’re clearly a sensitive type but the original poster was the one who spelt it incorrectly. Still, Gerrard’s wife, phwooooarr eh?

Yes she was certainly first in the queue when God was handing out chests.

While we're thinking of the children, I dont want any more WWII jokes. My grandad died in a POW camp in WWIII. He fell off his guard tower. Sensitive subject.

Bernard Manning wants his joke back (and it was 'perished in Auschwitz' for extra offensiveness).

And it was WW2 as WW3 asn't happened yet.

When we played Boro in the play off semi I was genuinely worried Traore would do something and dump us out of it.

It was heartening to see the only way his game has developed has been to add throwing in a cross 40 feet over everyone's head at the end of said run.

Maybe he’s just useless in any matches involving Villa.

Feels a bit like when Cahill left and returned to VP with Bolton to annually concede 4 and 5s cue loads of MON made the right decision to sell him and sign Knight/Davies.

History has proved otherwise.

Adama wasn't great v us but he did play well second half of last season, finally having an end product to his mad runs.

I would guess that unlike TOYSRUS, PEDANTICFUCKSRUS will never go out of business. ;)

Joe Bryan for 3.5 million. Or maybe we could offer 4.5million and Neil Taylor

Bryan would be an unbelievably good signing in my humble opinion!

He was linked earlier in the summer if I recall correctly.
