Hopefully the Irish help him get up to speed which can only be good for us.
Fascinated to see if Hurzeler can get a tune out of him and find a style that suits him. I think we managed about 1 shot from December onwards last season, and he fluffed it
He often travels back in the international break anyway according to Insta, and was flying out of Biggin Hill the day after Arsenal. So i surpect this isn't a huge change to his whereabouts
Now I like him, think he will be a great player. But for him to go for more than £115 million would need an absolutely incredible season, I just don't see it. There's not enough teams out there with that sort of money anymore.
I thought yesterday was the first time he looked like he believed he is an elite player and was determined to show it v a great side. A real swagger about him.
If I'm the ref i book Veltman and not Rice. But that's because i would be a shit ref and make decisions on balance rather than based on the law.
It's a definite second yellow. Although Veltman should be booked for booting Rice
Very sad but Gilmour has had a lot of personal stuff going on. Don't blame him if he wants a fresh start. Hopefully the O'Reilly injury has at least meant we get a few more £ for him.
We entertained the fee. The deal was done. Crawley have spared you looking a tit.
Which is good news I think. But interesting to see what happens in Jan when Gomez comes in and he only has 18 months on his contract
Great result, shit luck with the injury/opposition thugs, but quite nervous of how open we've played in the last two and how Arsenal could exploit it if we don't change
