Sho Time Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I've gone on record as saying I was against signing him and I'd still maintain that I'd like to have seen Thauvin given a proper run (especially under Rafa) but I've also said how impressed I've been with him and that I was clearly wrong. Nowt wrong with that tbh. Not at all. The quotes thing wasn't calling anyone out in any way, it was purely just to provide examples of where people had said that and KI appeared to call me out for bullshitting because I'm not one of the posters he likes to arselick on here.

Karjala Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Been the best signing in years. Works his arse of every match, and delivers the goods. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I was tearing my hair out with his performance in the first half, he kept losing the ball in great positions and setting up Palace counter attacks. But second half he was great and did a real shift defensively too. Also, it's nice when a footballer actually looks like the same player as the one on the youtube highlights.

Mattoon Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I'll hold my hands up, didn't think much to him signing for us tbh, we needed defenders and a striker at the time and was disappointed we got him instead. Having said that he's not exactly a world beater and has left us infuriated at times, several times a match and many of us here can be quoted as saying he's having a bad match more than once and wanting him subbed, but he pulls it out the bag every game for us. He's been involved in everything and without him we'd be in a much worse position, glad to eat my words on this occasion. Even when he's been bad he's delivered, awesome work Andros!

Stifler Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 The free kick man, I was in the corner on level 7 and in my mind I'm thinking we have no one to score directly from free kicks and that they often don't get passed the wall. So there I was 'Well it's got passed the wall......fucking hell in the corner'. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember the Emre winner against the Mackems, I was sitting right behind it, I stud up because I thought it was going in, then thought it was going to hit the post so started to sit back down all whilst the ball was in the air.

[emoji38]Fuck you on about? I asked who had said they'd have preferred keeping Thauvin because I'd never seen it. You gave two examples, I wasn't claiming you were bullshitting at all, calm your passions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Nowt like massaging your ego with the power of hindsight like Might aswell drag up quotes before and after Leon Best scored a hatrick against West Ham, or Jonas keeping us in the league. FWIW we originally signed Townsend as a left winger. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figures 1-0 Football Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 He'll frustrate at times - but when you're having to singlehandedly take on 3 or 4 opposition players, you're not going to win every time. He's a great talent though, far better than I expected and he could well play a massive part in keeping us up. Great free-kick. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geordie Ahmed Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Happy to admit I was wrong about him, expected him to be average at best BUT overall he has been class, still frustrates at times as he holds onto to the ball too long, though I prefer that to someone that doesn't even try to take players on Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
