Nice to see Percy play... doubt we'll ever see him at the Amex though.

Nice free kick.

On target 'n' everything.

Only one player on the pitch looks like he's worth £100,000,000 and it certainly ain't Maurice Salah

Well, according to the bbc match (text) commentary Percy has been “impressive..” “pulling all the strings...” etc. Over shadowing Salah at halftime.

It’s a huge pity re the WP situation, as I do believe he’s a very skilful and silky player - a big game player too, something we somewhat lack.

You seem to be implying the BBC is a more reputable news source than lil old Statles.

Into the quarter finals! We need a live world standings table.

Well Cameroon jumped 29 places for winning the last AFCON.

He outshone Salah so let’s not give up on seeing OUR Perc in the stripes this season just yet!


“The most significant changes for the February edition of the FIFA/Coca-Cola World Ranking arrive courtesy of matches played at the 2017 CAF Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON).

Cameroon’s victory at the tournament helped them climb 29 places into 33rd position while Egypt’s silver-medal finish secured them a place in the Top 25. The Pharaohs (23, plus 12) are now the highest ranked CAF team. AFCON semi-finalists Burkina Faso (38, plus 15) and Ghana (45, plus 9) also enjoyed large gains while quarter- finalists Congo DR (37, plus 12), Morocco (48, plus 9) and hosts Gabon (87, plus 21) also have cause to celebrate.”
