I really don’t see us spending any money now, not until all the financial uncertainty is cleared up or we get promotion anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardiff are also interested after his loan last season, I guess that could be to replace the sacked Mendez-Laing? Or was it Hoilett they sacked? Mendez-Laing, mate. Be nice for Albert to finish his career at QPR, as he is a big fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They call themselves Les Crocodiles! Despite that, they play in red. They just escaped relegation from Ligue 1 last season by one place. Looks like a hell of a place to live. Down on the south coast, and full of ancient ruins. I'd go and play there! Lovely city in egg chaser country. If ever down that way visit the Pont du Gard, huge Roman aqueduct. Very best to Nic.

Not seen him play but yeah if he's good enough then hopefully DH will throw him in, if not then even a PL youngster would be fine on loan just to have the option.

Exactly. Big numbers mostly achieved for top scorers, player of the season, club captain types. Not someone who can barely get in the match day squad half the time.

No we didn't unless you were in that board meeting. I was wrong though 700k.

In my opinion he's one of our best players, I haven't seen a crosser like him for years. I still dream of his left foot. Unfortunately we don't play with wingers. Therefore his sum is not worth more than the whole. But he is still a terrific player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davefevs Posted October 1, 2020 Report Share Posted October 1, 2020 I’m sure he will look good in any team that can allow him the flexibility to play to his strengths....but as the standard gets higher so does the necessity to confirm with tactics and shape without the ball (both in and out of possession)....and that is his weaknesses. Absolutely brilliant left foot but I can see why Prem clubs aren’t knocking. Celtic would’ve been a good move though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he’s had a fairly comfortable couple of years here, picked up a decent wage on time (which he might of had problems with if he had joined a club like Wigan or Birmingham). I hardly think he’s going to leave here upset that he made the move in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
