Dwight Gayle (now playing for Hibernian)


Recommended Posts

So how good has Gayle been? A lot of palace fans were pissed off we sold him and now him and Murray are top scorers in the championship :/

 

I think he could do well in the premiership if a team plays to his strengths.

 

Townsend hasn't done well at all. Hopefully that was Pardew holding him back but also doesn't help playing him on the wrong wing. Guess he will get a chance when zaha is at the African nations cup.

 

Easily one of our 3 best players this season, arguably the best. His movement is sharp as a dart as you'll know but his ability to let us stretch the game has been invaluable and I've been really impressed with his holdup play given his lack of height. Works hard too. Been near enough the perfect signing for us.

He's been class, our best attacking player by a distance.  I've always rated him and know a few palace fans who said he was your best finisher by a distance.

He's been outstanding, I thought we well over paid for an average player when we bought him, happy to admit I way way wrong, proving to be a steal even at 10 million, if we go up, his goals would have been a big part in that.

He has been far and away more successful than the vast majority of fans imagined....fantastic value for his fee.

Only Pardew could not see that he is a natural goal scorer but then, I suppose we shouldn't gloat - it was Newcastle United, under the auspices of one Willie McFaul, who played a triallist in goal only for same teenager to sign for Southampton who played him in his preferred CF position and then be bought back by Newcastle in 1996 for a world-record fee...!

Tried to sign up for that new customer offer from Coral on nufc.com through the link where you can get 6/1 on him being the Championship top scorer.  Funnily enough, for both myself and my mate who tried it, they let us sign up through the link, deposit cash and the bet was nowhere to be seen.  Text chat support say I signed up with an offer of free bets if I bet a fiver or something, which is funny because I'd never seen that signup page until they linked me to it and I distinctly remember Gayle's toothy grin on my sign-up page.  Just to save anyone else bothering with it.
