Same board that just extended their manager's contract.

Would rather just move him in on and bring in a more dynamic, hungry player.

I love this signing!

Is Mandanda going to do well in the PL? He's always been highly rated in France and looked good out there...just always wondered if he was overrated.

They signed Mandanda too?

Like the note from Mark Douglas saying Rafa thinks he's raw enough to be developed into a potentially prolific goal scorer in the PL.

Might actually buy it. Rafa effect.

I like the kit, shorts and the hooped socks for a good change up. I'm assuming the no back patch is a championship thing but who knows. Kit will look lush on Lascelles and Ayoze like.

Very excited for this signing. Always somehow feared palace more when he was playing. Always assumed he'd destroy colo...wonder why.

Could have been a legend for us. Dominated that league, learned from Rafa and been one of the main men in a Rafa team. Good luck to him, I hope he achieves nothing at Palace as long as his manager is Alan "one day" Pardew.

Rafa has been meticulously keeping his database of players ready at all times. He still seemingly kept in contact with his global scouts and people who spot and identify talent he trusts. He's in control man.

Maybe Dwight can seal this one quickly, then text his mate Andros to not sign for Palace to fuck over Pardew.

:lol::lol: amazing he's great like

OK Stifler

Unai Emery was reportedly after him when he was at Sevilla, he's now replacing Blanc at PSG. Perhaps, just maybe, he was signing to play for a manager who wanted him. Anyone think of that?

The final day when he was getting applauded for staying on and not being subbed, and he had that little smile - his dad even commenting on that moment...he'll not get that type of love at any other club.

can't help but be disappointed in Townsend jumping ship to fucking Palace of all clubs

that classic holding up last season's kits and leaving them up for signing pics is so weird. Only NUFC.

still not bothered releasing the new kit then eh?

Don't get this whole love in with Armstrong the lad looked so far out of his depth when in the premier league he came on or started. yes he's scored goals at Coventry but that may be his level he's shown nothing to say he's got it at a much higher level and the fact he's local is a p*ss poor argument Taylor Colback and Ameobi were local look at how s*** these are. who gives a f*** if they are local or not they are paid to put the ball in the net the people saying Dwight Gayle is a dodgy deal need to give their head a shake we are a championship club now and he's looked sharp quick and an eye for goal in the premier league whenever I've seen him something our strikers have never shown he'd instantly be our best striker by a complete mile I'm still backing our Serbian full international. The late blooming Jamie Vardy was doing next to nothing until he had about 5 and 16 in the Championship, followed by another 5 and now he's shit hot. Harry Kane did abs. nowt prior to getting shit hot for Spurs and in the league he's one the best strikers. What Armstrong has done in the past for us under the prior regime should have no bearing on how he could get on after the brilliant season he's just had in League 1 with Coventry. What we should be doing is either a) giving him a shot or b) continuing his development in League 1 for half a season and then back with us.

Nah man, don't go there, no. Go to Sevilla or PSG or somewhere not in England.

Man, fuck Delli Alli

You don't know whats in the transfer horizon because Rafa has kept everything close to his chest.

Ritchie would wreck the championship
