I know you can't begrudge him a PL move, but Crystal Palace? And Pardew?

 

It only hurts because it's them, I think they're one of the few PL clubs you can easily turn down in favour of us in the Championship.

 

I hope Rafa can work his magic, because we'll lose a good player and he'll soon be Pardewed.

Palace? Crazy move if he takes that. Surely he isn't that desperate to play in the PL. If he is worrying about England too, the next tournament is 2 years away, plenty time for him to get back in the top division and make an impact.  Bide your time Townsend lad, it will benefit you in the long run.

Footballers' careers are short. He's good enough to play in the PL and, as a professional athlete, I'd like to think he'd want to spend as much time as possible playing at the top level. I can't begrudge him if wants to move and wish him well if he does.

Man, that's a real big shame. I fully believe he'd go ahead and bang in 15+ goals next season and wreck the Championship.

 

However, having said that - will always rate the fella but not happy he's potentially going to Palace. f*** Pardew.

 

He'll stagnate in development under Pardew and be made a scapegoat when things go wrong for Pardew. So are they going to run with Bolaise, Zaha and Andros as their 3 behind the central striker?

The Rafa effect is hiding the reality of what happens when you get relegated. Your best players leave and they get replaced by ones you've never heard of. Just have to hope that they are going to be good enough.

Not a fan of Ritchie. We already have enough midfielders who are as slow as a snail with limited ability and he's nowhere near Andros' level.

 

Unfortunately, he's the type we will probably be looking at due to relegation but i'd much rather we look elsewhere.

He was excellent in their 3-1 win at our place. Had a very good game. His intelligence on the ball reminded me of Nobby at times.
