London Blue Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 Bit of a headless chicken really. It's amazing how many of his runs come off due to sheer luck. Maybe we could do with a bit of that luck though. As Napoleon said he would rather have a lucky general than a good one. God knows we need some luck round here.

markjazzbassist Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 if Ron wants him and he fits into his plans then yes. 24m is like 12m of last year, which is fine. we need wingers, only have lennon, mirallas, gerry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevO Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 I like the lad, he's exciting to watch if nothing else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nogs Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 proven? He's had a purple patch and done nothing more. Just because we've got money to spend doesn't mean we should waste it on a chance he's more than just a half season wonder Yes, proven. He has been a very effective player for Palace for the past two seasons, he makes things happen. He needs to add goals maybe but shouldn't be judged on that alone.

The normal search function is shite, click on the cog next to it and use the advanced search, then just use the search titles drop down and it should be better.

duncanmckenzieismagic Posted August 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 I'd rather spend £25m on him than Wijnaldum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EFC-Paul Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 I'd rather spend £25m on him than Wijnaldum Although I rate Wijnaldum I fully agree with that for those kind of prices Bolasie has game changing quality I agree it's not shown as often as it should be but if you want what he can do consistently then your looking at players that more than likely won't come here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 Yes, proven. He has been a very effective player for Palace for the past two seasons, he makes things happen. He needs to add goals maybe but shouldn't be judged on that alone.different definitions of proven then I think. First season he was average, second he had a spell that fizzled out. At least, from what I've seen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lowensda Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 (edited) In fairness, that guy knows fuck all. I'd be incredibly disappointing spending that amount of money on him. Edit: Rather take the risk on someone like Canhaloglu or Brandt. Edited August 9, 2016 by Lowensda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chicagoblue Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 We're not seriously doing this are we? Hardly seems like the kind of transfer we brought someone like Walsh in to organize.

markjazzbassist Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 completely agree i'm not sure why everyone is all out of whack. he played under pardew who you lot all hate and think is a shit manager. if ron and walsh see something they think will work for us, then i'm all for it. they might have plans to use his pace with gerry's to burn their backline and have Rom/new CF bang em in. i'm not worried in the slightest, In Ron we trust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddock Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 Smacks of a panic buy to me. From Witsel, Mata, Carvalho and Koulibally, to Williams, Kone and Bollasie. Fucking hell ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romey 1878 Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 Yannick Bolasie will be our new record signing. Just think about that for a second. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn balor Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 He will be for a week or so. The lad is a handful I've got a feeling we could be a serious team this season. Let's get mata and two forwards and we can do damage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
