To be honest I can't actually remember his performance on Saturday for some reason. Not that he had a bad game, I just can't remember him! So you may well be right

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?

not the time he nonchalantly flicked the ball over that forest player? or his latinotastic way of trapping the ball?

I loved his flick over the Forest player into space in the first half. Sheer flair.


(Beaten to it. But it was class wasn't it?)

WBA may decide that they either sell him for the best price that they can get during the January window or lose him for nothing when he is out of contract as there isnt anothetr transfer window of any conbsequence before his ocntract expires. If they wait until the summer they will get nothing as he will only a have a month or so left on his contract so any prospetive buyer will wait until September to sign him for free out of contract.

Nope, I can't remember that :( I never normally have this problem, must have bumped into Will Smith or Tommy Lee Jones who have wiped my memory of Reyes on Saturday. Can remember everyone else's performance. Or maybe I'm just getting old

It was indeed class, I'm sure there was a cheeky back heel too.

Did you see the back heel AS HE TRAPPED THE BALL? it was around the same time as his flair flick.

My son and his mates LOVE him.

Is there a possibility he might be flattering to decieve at the moment. I think he looks brilliant but not sure he has been tested defensively yet, and it's always a worry. Hopefully that's not the case.

I remember one of our players trying a back heel on the edge of the forest box, but failing, and getting it trapped under his feet and giving away a freekick trying to keep possession. This as immediately followed by the ref back heeling it to the forest keeper.

Without mentioning the massive matchday income at the stadium or the huge merchandise sales either.......

Palace fans don't like us mentioning attendances but with 18K season ticket holders we have a guaranteed income of 500K in direct debits every month.
I think Reyes is enjoying getting regular football which counts for a lot, and the Baggies said he was class at Championship level. Bloom is a good negotiator. Those poker tournaments come in handy when doing deals, I reckon. I hope we get him.

Now that WAS class - Lua lua I believe. To make it even better the ref decided to back heel the ball to where the free kick was conceded!!

Reyes' flick was so audacious that I assumed the ref had blown up for something - couldn't believe he had done that in our third - very very flair!

it would be good if the G-Man popped in there and haggled him up a tiny bit. Naturally, 500k is a bit cheap for a player like Reyes, and the way he played against Notts. Forest is only going to push the Baggies' bidding price up a bit, as well as a number of other factors.

'The way he played against Notts Forest'?, he was ok l suppose, a competant performance, but not brilliant!, but yeah overall a player l would love to see wearing the Albion stripes permanantly. Will certainly giive Calde a run for his money in the right back berth, and can of course also operate in midfield.

So! Not only do the Sun know that we are going to bid for him. They know exactly how much we are going to bid. Must have some very deep cover and very close reporters that's all I say. They wouldn't be guessing this would they??

As much as I hate to say it I think Calde will be on his way out sooner rather than later. I don't think the Championship is his level, hope I am wrong though!

i thought he put in a decent performance given that he's just come off the injury list
