It didnt work out - sometimes it happens. If we get 30m or whatever the figure  is we have got off lightly  as he massively disappointed  here

I think the expectations are less at Palace, so he was probably relieved not to have the pressure.
I still think he could be good for us. Just takes a bit longer to adjust to Unai’s way

The one thing i did find odd is that unai never tried him up top - he opted for malen instead when ollie wasnt available

Might have been worth trying it but guess we will never know now

He would have watched him every day on the training ground so I’m sure he would have had a feeling he wasn’t better than Malen who wasn’t that good on his own either.

Deft piece of work for his assist, tbf.

It was, yes.

Quite a few people on here observed that he didn't seem to really have the confidence of his fellow players at VP. You'd have thought  francophone solidarity might have helped, but he didn't seem any closer to Youri, Onana, Kamara or Digne than any of the other players - i.e., not very close!

Anyway, he looked assured in that clip. Good for him. Let's hope that he prospers and either makes us a profit or comes back better.
