I still rather believe our scouting staff opinion judging the player talent than some people on internet.

Saw it with my own eyes this afternoon diving all over the place and nothing of the quality player I thought we were after.
And even Mrs Rockape was calling him awful and she has a good eye for a decent player

Can coincidence be used as proof though? If it can, then bin berting altogether, becuse surely the whole premise of gambling is coincidence. To then use that as definitive proof for punishment can't possibly be fair.

Note, I'm not arguing he wasn't involved or that it doesn't look suspicious as fuck if not obvious. But I just can't understand how that can be used as conclusive proof. There would have to be some form of admission or a statement by someone, I would think.

I’m not putting the case together for his potential prosecution.

I would suggest that we’re they to charge him and try him for spot fixing, that they’d probably have more information than we have at the moment.

It does, however, to me, seem like either the coincidence of all coincidences or he’s told some mates to get some free cash. My money is on the latter, but time will tell.

You've got to take the team he's playing for into consideration, & the instructions from the doyen of football tactics - Gollum...

Top player, was excellent today after a poor start

But he's not a City level player, he's just not good enough or quick enough for us and deffo not worth north of £80mil even in this market

His antics today were at least laughable on the other hand discusting those attributes are inbread.
If he signs for City he will quickly become a hated player across the country.
I know I didn't like his antics today.

Unless Pep tells him that's not what we want and he just keeps his desire, competitive nature, skill set, personality (shithousery omitted).
Excellent player.

He's reflecting his environment mate. With all due respect, playing for WHU is a totally different prosposition to playing for City.

We play & conduct ourselves differently. For Paqueta to City, I'd say his Brazil performances are a far better indicator of what he has to offer us.
