I hope I'm wrong if he signs. He had a great start in the PL but after that great start he didn't convince me in the other seasons. I have mixed feelings about him... The only Dutch Palace fan??

Originally posted by Brisbane Eagle To be honest, its taken a lot of gloss off it for me as it's dragged on too long. Bit like the Zlatan and Mourinho sagas. Are we all supposed to go WOW if it finally happens now? Has it really dragged on though? Must've been under two weeks ago that the bid was made and and the stories of us agreeing terms with the player? At a time when the player was on international duty/on holiday. Frustrating as it is, I think we all need a little patience...

If Pardew decides to play 4-4-2 they have to sell YB and get another good striker. Because Wickham and Benteke upfront won't work out imo. The only Dutch Palace fan??

No one will pay £28m for Bolasie and Parish has apparently said he wont budge on the asking price. Therefore he will not be going anywhere any time soon.
