Disco Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Ravanelli & Juninho to Boro Not at his prime but KK ending his career at us was an obscure decision to the majority. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Yeah, Ravanelli has just scored in a Champions League final. Then he goes to Parmoland. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raconteur Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Even that fee is not unreasonable even though it is higher than we have ever paid for a player since Ashley took over. Very pertinent point, that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEMTEX Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Wildly overrated, moody, chasing one last big payday. And yet would still shit on anyone in our squad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flip Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Cant believe he genuinely liked Pardew. This is all very disappointing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 I'm not arsed but I am surprised a better club didn't come in for him. I'm not. The top clubs can afford to buy players with his attributes plus some pace, height and athleticism. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbnufc Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Even that fee is not unreasonable even though it is higher than we have ever paid for a player since Ashley took over. Is it not 10.5m "rising to" 13m based on.. stuff? Cabella at 12m is close at least Only Shearer and Owen have been signed by us for over 13m though.

DubblyDubblyDubbly Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Eurosport saying he'll be on £100k a week Abramovich, Sky, BT blah blah. which is why I'm done with the Premiership. We have an owner that won't play the game so get out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Pinkman Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 The way I'm looking at it is if you had offered to me a year a go that Pardew would fuck off to Palace for 3 million but Cabaye would join him, I'd have bitten your hand off! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The top clubs can afford to buy players with his attributes plus some pace, height and athleticism. Hmm, possibly, his other attributes are of a very high standard though. Also there are clubs between the elite and Palace. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ste Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Don't really feel that arsed about him going there. I think he'll realise soon enough it's a poor move and a bit short sighted to solely concentrate on his Euro place. He'll probably be looking to move after that tournament. Has to have been a better club in for him who could give him first team football. The respect and like for Pardew is a bit odd. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minhosa Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 People seem to be forgetting he had many a poor game for us too. His best form, by some distance, was when he was hankering for a move. No doubt that he's technically gifted, but he's also got his shortcomings too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Gleebals Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 The fact Palace got him had fuck all to do with Pardew IMO - no one else went in for him and he shit it Having a manager that will rim you each week was just a bonus IMO. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ankles Bennett Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 £13m for a 30 year old on a 3 year contract!!!!!Pardew will build the team around him and when he gets injured the team will be clueless without him. Sound familiar? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deckard 13 Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 At the time, Owen to Newcastle. 25 years old, England centre-forward, had done well in Spain...to Newcastle who'd just finished 14th. I did think of this one, but because he is English he only had a choice of a few English clubs. He was never going to go to Germany or Italy so it didn't seem that weird at the time. Remy to QPR was similar to this I think. Maybe Kilnsman? 13 million on a 3 year deal... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt that he's technically gifted, but he's also got his shortcomings too. It'll be a challenge to use him properly. Palace look a much weaker team once they take out one of their bearded CM destroyers. Pardew had already started tinkering with that last season. Not that Cabaye isn't quality, but he doesn't defend or cover ground well, and he gets booked loads. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sho Time Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Fantastic signing for them, he'll improve them massively. Hopefully Pardew still takes them down though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
