It's outrageous that he won't be going to the World cup. My French mates agree.One of our best ever players…just unreal that he plays for us.
Love that paddle bit. if thats what he said anywayYou must be logged on to see media items
“This season we built a family”
(If it wasn’t clear already) he’s going absolutely nowhere like - when you hear him speaking about next season already.
You can say that againI like him![]()
Was a thing of beauty, yesThat moment today where he managed to turn Joao Pedro inside out without actually touching the ball was a thing of beauty!![]()
Ridiculous signing yet fans of other clubs said he wasn’t that goodThe sheer audacity to even attempt to bring him in while still in the Championship. Felt like a real show of ambition and what was to come. Truly special player.
He was class against West Ham in the first game of the season.There was a moment at Derby away when he was on the touchline facing the fans backing into a Derby player, and I basically expected him to knock it back down the line - because that is what every footballer I had seen in the previous 8 years would have done - but he just dummied, swivelled and went past the defender like he wasn’t there. And I thought f***ing hell, he’s a level above anything we’ve had for years. It was something I didn’t even think was on at all, it hadn’t even crossed my mind he’d do that.
Like everyone he took a bit of times adjusting to this league - but second half of the season he’s been absolutely unreal. Assume one day a huge team will take him off us, but until then I think he’s happy playing for a manager he loves and hopefully a club he loves too.
