Loosey Boy Posted August 24, 2019 Report Share Posted August 24, 2019 Even though he won’t be playing, when we go to Stoke after the International break, we need to sing his name loud and proud!! COYRs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No sorry did not mean it to be fact that there is a clause only that he can’t play for them until January at the earliest dependent on clauses etc. Though a lot of loans tend to have a recall in January but that could be more to protect young players.

Not being over critical, but I actually did not think it was a great penalty. Down the middle, not at great pace, and low enough that a goalies trailing leg might of got it. Sometimes you just need that bit of luck to get your confidence back. Equally in fairness to Stoke fans, I think he was an bit rubbish last year. I think he admitted himself he has lost a fair bit of weight since then, and had a tough year with a new born that meant he was sleeping badly. He seems to be on a mission to re-prove himself now and that can only be good news for us. There is real quality there. More than anything else he just seems to be enjoying himself again.

Rumour is that it’s another low fee (like agreed with Dasilva). He will only have a year left on his contract next summer, so Stoke nit in a great position.

Add in the rest of the window and he would’ve been pretty low down the list. All history now and looking like a crazily shrewd bit of humble pie business all round! I still think/hope we'll be in the market for a striker in the Jan transfer window, don't you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phileas Fogg Posted August 24, 2019 Report Share Posted August 24, 2019 Think we’ll try and make it permanent ASAP. He’s very grounded and will realise we can get the best out of him. I’ve got a hunch he’s really enjoying his football again - and a player of his quality, if happy and fit, is very dangerous for our rivals.

Weve won 3-1 away from home , 9 points in a week , Afobe is loving it and playing really well There are two disparate groups of people amongst the busier posters on otib, sharing just the two peculiarities: 1. Supporting Bristol City, and 2. The love of being "right," and being seen to be "right." One group likes to rubbish and belittle everyone and everything that is Bristol City, and any hint of "happy clapism" or positivity/optimism about the club, and then revel in any or the slightest evidence of being "proven" correct about this (eg, going a goal down in a game); the other relishes, somewhat sanctimoniously, every and any opportunity to remind those that predicted disaster that they were hopelessly wrong, clueless and hasty (and all this in August, when everything is still possible: promotion, relegation, collapse after Christmas, midtable obscurity, goalscorers drying up, promising cbs going off the boil), while most are basking in the warm summer balm of another away win.
