Crystal Palace (Away) - Pre Match Thread

[Neville Kneville]

Now you’ve mentioned it, I do get a little irritated by pedants. Can we leave it there for today, please?

I already had ?

 

[BLUEMATT23]

Yaya? Christ no.

He needs a game!
Ivory Coast may recall him

 

[Manchester_lalala]

Ivory Coast may recall him

May aswell resign kolo so he can get back in the Ivory Coast team too.

 

[Dax777]

Yeah can't remember the last time he got a couple of goals and an assist and decided a game on his own...

Wait, didn't that just happen?

Toure lost his game when he started throwing his toys out of the pram over some birthday cake. Absolute child. I've always thought, once a player's head goes, the legs go as well. He was a force of nature at one point, but saw a pay day elsewhere and when that didn't materialize he seemed to go awful quiet, bar talking bollocks about being offered mega money to go to China but he couldn't leave the club in the lurch. Lol, what a crock of shit. A player entering their twilight years don't do loyalty, and who would in their right mind? Looks like the Chinese saw that other aging ex City player was costing them (700-000 bucks a week) for zero return and wised up and he's all kissing the badge lol. Not bad for closing a game down in the latter stages, or playing a minor cup game to help the kids, but his legs are well gone since his ego (or agent) put the kibosh on that one. Reminds me of Vierra at AFC, lost out on the REAL deal as they wouldn't offer him the potatoes he thought he was going to get and the legs just went after that - ended up being made a carthorse out of by Fabregas in some CL game when he was playing for Juve and lord knows where he wound his career down after that; Inter, I think.

With the greatest respect mate, that’s absolute nonsense. And didn’t Vieira win five successive Serie A titles in Italy?

AGAINST WHOM? The league was broke and Juve got relegated for financial naughtiness, all the best players buggered off. Lol, FFS, Swansea could have won that league had they moved there it was so piss poor. Didn't Inter have some bread left to keep ahead of the pack and muster a CL with the moaner after Viera was long gone? Total respect, man, but the Italian league has been an utter joke for aging and average players for over a decade. Long gone are the great Juve or AC's of this world.
