The definition of arrogant is "having or revealing an exaggerated sense of one's own importance or abilities"

How can selling a player who wanted regular football but couldn't be guaranteed a regular place be arrogant

Totalling agree, both players were great servants to the club & were big reasons why we got promoted but their time was up.

Both were unhappy with not playing & you have to respect their decisions that they want to go elsewhere to get playing time especially after what they had done for the club.

Also we got good money for both which helped us keep within the FFP rules which Parish commented on after Murray was sold.

And who do we have this Saturday??

I can just see his smug face if they beat us and he's in the dug out

I'll want us to do them even more than if Pulis were still there.

It would be super funny if we scored twice in stoppage time after trailing 4-3.

IIRC Murray wanted to leave and if that's the case you can't really do much about it except try to make it as financially painless as possible. I suppose in the circumstances we managed that.

We didn't really replace him though. Benteke is a better striker in a traditional and technical sense but he doesn't bully defences or create much himself. Niasse might have done that, if he jacked in his acting career.
